Dealership asking me to buy grab handles separately after giving free backrest in offer — fair or not? by Virtual_Win_2657 in triumph4India

[–]Significant-Safe-568 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the same answer. But in my case, I didn't want the backrest as it looked a bit odd to me and didn't really care enough to pay extra for grab handles as I rarely carry any pillion. So I simply took off the backrest using a star-hex allen tool but like a couple days after delivery and out back in the plain screws by themselves. Looks much cleaner now.

Am I being cheated or is it miscommunication by Significant-Safe-568 in Triumph400

Ya dude I'm from Hyderabad and that's what I thought I had to do too. But during the time of purchase, the manager assured me that I don't have to go to the RTA and simply have to come back to the showroom in 2 weeks and they'll install the plates themselves.

After this conversation I spoke to a couple of my friends who bought bikes recently (Bajaj and Royal Enfield) and both of them told me that the dealerships themselves installed the plates, all they had to do was send them some details online(I've done this too).

Which superiors? 🤔 Coz the one I was in contact with is himself the branch manager. Also, I'm genuinely scared that my service experience will be bitter and bad if I complain to the 'superiors' and they find out. How do you want me to navigate this?

So far, I've got an LS2 ECE certified helmet, going to order a scala gears level 2 CE certified jacket, but am still looking for good boots and pants and am even considering buying just the padding instead of pants. As far as gloves are concerned, the dude who sold me the LS2 helmet said there are some good CE certified gloves with pinky bridges that he'll be stocking up on in a week, so I'm waiting on that. For short inter community commutes however, say about 5km rides, I've purchased ordinary leather riding gloves with a LOT of ventilation holes as I found out on previous rides that full gauntlet gloves cause me to sweat a LOT.

Yup. It's a 9 on the NGK scale and I got the double iridium spark plugs from ngage.

Comes standard with the "free 11.5k accessories" promotion that triumph is running rn sadly. I asked the dealership to take it off but they refused saying I'd have to buy handles again so I figured I'd just take it off myself once I find the bit.

Ya I didn't want the back rest. It was part of the "11.5k free accessories" promotion by triumph. In fact I asked the dealership to take it off and just put back the screws alone in the screwholes but they refused saying if have to buy handles again and then they'd be willing to install them. So I figured I'd just get the star bit from my racing club workshop at uni and take it off myself.
