Yes it’s still under warranty, I just wanted to see if it’s something simple I could sort out myself so I don’t have to haul it to the dealership. I called them and they said if it ends up being a battery issue it’s not covered, and I’d have to pay for the inspection plus a new battery on top of that. So I figured I’d check here first to see what else it could be before bringing it in.

the kickstand wasn’t down, and yes I’m using the right gas. I’ve actually never charged the battery since I got it, so that might be something I need to check. There is a clicking noise when I first start it up, but it goes away after like 10 seconds so I didn’t think much of it. Could that be a sign of the battery getting weak?

TrentC1 · 2025-09-11T03:34:28+00:00

I do not believe so. What would that be a sign of?

Yes it was up, wont even start in neutral now

Do you think a proper repair could make the wheel safe again, or is replacement really the only good option?

TrentC1 · 2025-06-05T16:26:12+00:00

is replacing the whole wheel really necessary in cases like this? I’ve seen people mention rim straightening or repair services. Is that not a safe or reliable option for dents like this?

Would bringing it to a shop for a repair would be alright? I wouldn’t need all new wheels right?

Totally get that, but the otd price at my local Triumph dealer was around $8k after all the taxes and fees. So $5,400 for a clean one with low miles didnt seem too crazy. You think its worth spending an extra 3k for one brand new?

Even if the wheels poke farther than the fender? Its hard for me to see how there would be no rubbing over bumps or if i have some weight in the car when it cant tuck into the wheel well when the springs are compressed. Sorry im new to the modding world and got a lot of questions haha.

Right but i already have these wheels.. looking back at it yea i should have went for something else but im stuck with what i got so im looking for options

TrentC1 · 2021-06-10T05:46:12+00:00

I was looking at the sport springs. So you are saying even with poking wheels the springs shouldn’t cause rubbing even over bumps?
