Are you kidding?? With the HP/Compaq merger, that's two more competitors we don't have to worry about anymore

I liked the very First Tiger Look,I still like what the speed triple is supposed to represent.(HOOLIGANISM!!!!!)

My Question to all my riding friends and buddies:

IF you could own ten motorcycles,Had $100,000 to spend colectively.How many would be Triumphs?

I always can find reasons why other bikes due everything better look better,go faster,break less etc.

Tell me you don't want that new Ducatti....Na I want a 995 Triumph Daytona......

I don't want no R-1 heck give me a Triumph.......

Take that GS1150 and shove it ,I want a Tiger,With its chain drive and Green color and Bug eyes.

I still think The Bonnie is the one I'd come closest to owning but I would need to change the Parameters to $200,000 and 20 scooters.

But wat really makes me want to.......well er... avoid Triumphs is they dont leak oil anymore.....Ain't that sacreligious?

I hope I have ....well not offended you Triumph owners,you can take solace in the fact that the list would be long ,really long before I'd own a Harley,That they still haven't invented some of the bikes that would be on the list!!!

Later Mongo

Dunno, would need to ride some of them. The Daytona seems like it might be better on the street than the R1 or 996. The new Daytona looks tons better in person than in pictures.

On the BMW people come up and say "nice bike".

On the Triumph people came up and told stories of their old bikes, wow they still make Triumphs, this is nothing like my old one...sorta neat.

Look at those Chicken Stripes. Is that why they don't call it the Lean Triple?

It's cause fishy thinks it's a Haybusa.

Actually the chicken strips look pretty blue to me.

Yeah, yeah. That was right after I bought it...note the stock BT56 tire. Perhaps it makes up for the negative chikstrips I got on my GS
