Have had good luck at British Motorsports for parts, never had any service done
there though. You may be able to do better through mail order on prices, but
Dave is honest and a pretty good source of information. He's willing to spend
time on odd requests and such. Pretty much the only British place I deal with
in the south bay.
When you hear the words Triumph Only, run away as fast as you can. Wayne will
fleece you if he can. If you know how to deal with him, you may be able to
strike a deal. Otherwise, take your hard earned $$ else where and you'll avoid
a lot of headaches.

/Fred,

/British Motorsport, Campbell

/Motorsport, and winshield rubber done at Triumphs Only. Check these
/guys out, I have no monetary stake in either venture. Also, Action
/Auto is right down the street from my house so let me know if you're
