New Tires And Triumph News

Yesterday we had an appointment at our dealer to change the tires of our two bikes. The weather conditions were very poor. I started my morning ride to the office with 3 degrees celsius and rain for 60 kilometres. My wife left her bike therefore at home and took her car for the way to the office. At lunchtime we left the offices and headed home/directly to the dealer. On the way to the dealer, a two hours ride, the weather switched to all possibilities. After arriving at the dealer it started to snow too . Our challenge was to reach the dealer, because we had to pass two times the altitude of 1.000 metres, but on our alternative route we had no snowfall. Our dealer and his mechanics were well prepared and so it took them only a short time to change the tires of both bikes in parallel. Meanwhile we had a look through the complete facilities of our dealer and "checked" the bike situation. I found two new 400s of Triumph, the 400 Speed and the Scrambler 400 XC. Both of them look great and the prices are acceptable in comparison to other brands.
At last we payed €430.- for the tires for the Speed Twin of my wife and €605.- for the new tires of my Rocket including the mounting.
Afterwards we headed again by using a longer alternative route back home and reached it nearly dry.
