2006 TGB Motor Scooters Now Have
2-Year, Unlimited Miles Warranty
Low failure rate leads manufacturer to lengthen warrantyKennesaw, GA, January 11, 2006 --
Cobra Powersports, the US Distributor for TGB scooters, motorcycles
and ATVs (all-terrain vehicles), has announced that it has
lengthened
all 2006 49cc and 151cc scooters to an
industry leading 2-year warranty, unlimited miles. Cobra
Powersports
increased coverage after reviewing 2004-2005 warranty claims and
finding that the TGB scooters have an extremely low warranty claim
rate of less than 0.3%.
The new warranty policy doubles the
coverage of TGB scooters and increased the parts that are covered.
Bill Peirce, President of Cobra Powersports, said, "We knew
that the TGB scooters were great products, but after our technical
manager totaled up the warranty claims that we paid out over the
past 2 years I had to smile. Our failure rate was so low that
I knew we had a great opportunity to show our customers and dealers
that we believe in the TGB scooters so much that we are going to
double the warranty."
"Our warranty has
real meat behind it because we cover defective parts for 2 full
years. Unlike many warranties that exclude certain parts,
don't pay labor, or
drop coverage as the scooters age; we cover the whole scooter,
except wearable items such as tires and air filters." Mr.
Peirce adds, "We also pay the labor charges to make the repairs
covered under the warranty so that our customers won't have to pay
for covered repairs."
Consumers should visit the Cobra Powersports website or visit an
Authorized TGB Dealer to get more information about the TGB warranty
and coverage details.
The TGB 2-year limited warranty
covers the complete 2006 Cobra-TGB scooter line, including the TGB
Key West, TGB Laser R5, Laser R9 and TGB R50X Extreme. The Key
West, Laser R5 and R50X Extreme scooters include the
high-performance TGB 2-stroke 49cc engine which is 2006 EPA
certified. TGB is one of the only companies to be able to pass
the new EPA laws for testing and certifying onroad motorcycles with
a 2-stroke engine. 2-stroke engines offer higher performance
and less maintenance than a typical 4-stroke engine.
TGB continues to offer the Laser R9
151cc scooter in the USA and with the increased warranty this
scooter is positioned to be the perfect commuter vehicle. With
proven reliability and performance, the TGB Laser R9 offers over 75
MPG and a top speed of over 60 MPH.
