    Afternoon all,

    Hope you're keeping safe and enjoying the long weekend as best you can.

    Any tips for a newcomer (apologies if this information exists elsewhere!) on where best to source oil and consumables for my Scrambler 1200 XE? My local dealer appear to have gone to ground.

    I get my stuff for my Defender from Opie oils which is great as you can just whack in a registration and see all the compatible products and the quantities required etc. But they don't seem to cater to bikes well.

    Any recommendations or site sponsors etc?

    I am not going to be able to take my new 1200 XE in for its running-in oil change, so will do it myself.

    Thanks in advance!

    I think they’ve still got 10% off.

    Worth a look.

    They’ve got 15% off , which makes it £29.41 which is a bargain when you consider it’s delivered free, last time I looked a Halfords it was over £40 the robbing bastards.

    Don't forget that to preserve the warranty you should use a Triumph oil filter (and new crush washer) you can get that from Fowlers or World of Triumph.
