The last time I nosed at Triumphrat.net (I'm not a member) it was full of adverts for Ducati

Talk about brand loyality

Eeh! Don't worry cousin. That was ONLY an ad meant for that very small group of Triumph owners who no longer wish to own a motorcycle that can be leaned over at speed without scrappin' the hard parts!

(uh huh...ya see, those kind'a folks need that kind'a feedback to tell 'em whenever they're goin' beyond their riding capabilities...THAT'S ALL!!!)


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)

Ya know, after actually seein' that ad I was thinkin' here that maybe THAT really ISN'T being placed BY The Motor Company afterall! Nope! I'll betcha Willie G. doesn't know a thing about this!!!

I mean there's ONLY a picture of a motorcycle there! WHERE the HECK is the bandana wearin' "tough guy" or AT LEAST a R.U.B. tryin' to look like a "tough guy" standin' NEXT TO that H-D in that ad and showin' how much YOU TOO can "live the lifestyle" just like THAT dude and his H-D does, HUH???!!!

(...I mean, isn't THAT in ALL their official advertisements TOO????)

trat.net became a problem. A lot of guys jumped over to the forums on New Bonneville Riders
I rec'd the same email, which made me laugh.
