Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with your experience.
Our demonstration ride fee is a standard policy which applies to all customers using our demonstrator motorcycles, regardless of whether they ultimately purchase from us or another dealership. The fee and terms are explained and acknowledged before every test ride takes place.
We appreciate that you had already placed a deposit elsewhere and simply wished to experience the model before completing your purchase. However, as we provide, insure and maintain our demonstrator fleet, the same policy applies to every demonstration ride.
Whilst we understand you may not agree with the policy, we don't feel it would be fair to make exceptions on an individual basis.
We do appreciate your feedback and wish you many enjoyable miles on your new motorcycle.

Great sales service
The salesperson was not pushy, but was informative and informed. He agreed to install a battery charger lead. The bike was presented in a good, clean condition. The salesperson went through the controls and switches with me before letting me leave.
The only tiny gripe was that the clock had not been reset following the battery charger lead installation, but otherwise everything was great.

First bike
After doing my research on potential first big bikes, Triumph seemed to have what I was looking for. I called in to Lings Ipswich, whilst killing time waiting for someone, for a quick browse. CHARLIE, in the sales, was so helpful, personable, knowledgeable and enthusiastically encouraging. I called back later and made my purchase. Since then he has been great answering my queries and talking bikes. Highly recommend the experience. 🏍
