Hang on to your radiator caps
I recently had to replace a faulty radiator cap on my 2011 Storm and dropped into my dealer to get a replacement only to be told that Triumph in it's wisdom decided that it won't sell you "just a radiator cap" but you also have to buy the filler neck as one unit. The resultant price being approximately $130 AUD!
I ended up buying a non genuine for $15
Anyone had this problem before?
Cheers

My thoughts exactly Linkdog. But unfortunately seems like no alternative!
