The March issue of Cycle World, has a great article about the Brit-Bike intro into the US market place, and their AMA's racing. Learned two new triva facts. (1) Johnson Motors was the first (1937) Triumph dealer in the USA. (2) With the 1953 closing of the Indian Factory the dealer network and sales force switched to inports fron England.
Blue '03 TBA, Made in England. (50+ mpg).

When the two brits(a husband and wife)first opened their shop a couple years ago, I took a little ride over there to Pasadena and bought one of their T-shirts. Nice little place they've got, and they're very friendly folks too!
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
