hi all,i purchased my thruxton on the 27/06/15 new,i had it serviced at 587 miles, then it's 1st annual service at 2092 miles, followed by it's 2nd annual service at 3725 mile's, i know the manual state's 6,000 MILES OR 12 MONTH'S PER SERVICE,i can't warrant doing another MERE 2,275 mile's to get to the required 6,000 mile service,as it's now out of warranty i'm along the line's of waiting until it's done another 6,000 mile's till i get it serviced again, i was charged £200.87 for an oil & filter change & a check over,which i believe to be excessive, oil & filter let's say £50 with &£150 labour.on the other hand it's good to have the service book stamped & up to date.
Yup! I think labours around 90 odd quid an hour at triumph! Do the oil and filter yourself it costs less than 40 quid and you get your hands dirty! Or give this guy a call, ex triumph mech now mobile in Sussex, half the price Doug 07747 561627
Agree with Crispey, now it is out of warranty do the basic services yourself, you're not just saving money it is also very satisfying. 12k service is valve clearances which is a bit more involved but if you are mechanically competent no issues. Plenty of help and advice on the forum if you need it.
