    Yesterday pm I filled up my two month old Bonneville (650 miles in total) at our local garage, by the time I got home the dealership was closed.
    The bike had hardly been used last month so the petrol cap had not been off.
    What I found was disturbing to say the least, when I took the petrol cap off.
    Contacted my dealer Bridge Motorcycles Exeter about the problem this morning, they asked for some photos which I sent (as below). So within the hour a replacement tank had been ordered.
    The after sales service guy, Cameron, is absolutely brilliant. Credit where credit is due.

    @RBinDevon Yes pretty good service. Hopefully it will be better than the original. Hopefully its not coming from Taiwan like the problem i had with my rad as it will probably take for ever for you.

    I reckon it will be better than your rad problem as my bike was already booked in for Nov 13th for the fly screen to be fitted (should have been on the bike for Sept 1).
    The tank changeover was added to the 13th. So I reckon they know that the tank is in stock at headquarters. (I hope )
