Sorry if this looks too much like spam. Those that know of me, know I'm not a vendor and I'm not affiliated with the site I'm linking to, nor have I had any previous dealings with them. With that said, I found the following on triumphrat: "JUST ANNOUNCED!! We're having a once in a lifetime sale - 50% OFF ALL IN-STOCK MERCHANDISE. Friday 2/2/07 at 4pm - Monday 2/5/07 at 4pm. This sale will never repeated again. Shop now - motorcyclegearshops" The aforementioned site advertises on triumphrat. Sounds to good to be true, but I just ordered about $300 (retail) worth of stuff for 1/2 that. I used a credit card, just in case. They did charge me for tax though, even being out of state, but if this turns out to be legit, I have no problem with it. This is for your consideration, not recommendation. Caveat emptor (hey I'm a cheaspskate willing to roll the die every once in awhile) Good Luck, Tom

I was on that link and some of the members were complaining about that sites previous offers that weren't. there was another dealer that just worked out an ad deal with rat and he does offer 50% off older stock triumph apparel. Some doubted motorcyclegearshop prices staying at 50%.I guess what I'm saying is buyer beware, check those prices.

Nothing wrong in my book with being a cheapskate. Thanks for the tip. I have an urge to spend.

I have ordered from them several times, and I found them to be perfectly honest, reliable, and fast. I just got some of the Raptor pants on sale a couple weeks ago. After reading your message I went to their site and ordered about $400 ($200 on sale) in chrome goodies. Thanks?

Keep in mind the tank emblem part numbers in the Bonneville, T100 section match those on the Triumph site for the America and Speedmaster. Wish I would have spotted that earlier.

ok done, ya know this kinda reminds me of an old episode of I Love Lucy. Some calls Lucy and tells her about a sale. Her and Ethel drop everything run down there and spend a months pay.

I don't think my wife is going to like you after this weekend. Some real good deals, that I will have a very hard time passing up.

I actually exercised quite a bit of restraint. I only spent $116. Had over $200 in the cart before I started pruning.

I couldn't take the temptation either. Had to get the battery cover, while I was there spent some more $$'s too. This site really costs me money sometimes

I just hope it is for real. They got me as well, leather slant bags, lower fork shroud, clutch cover, axle nut covers, foot control bar, bat. box cvr,chrome master cylinder cover, key fob, hat and a couple shirts. All of that was just a shade over $500.00 shipped. Retails out at $1071.00 with shipping. Fingers crossed that this is not BS!!!

The only thing I can think of is that either the stuff just isn't selling and they're overstocked, or most of the merchandise has the old version of the Triumph logo and they want to clear it out. Although I did see the newer logo in there on a few items.

Telephonically added Tank Eyebrow badges to my original order (chrome caliper covers, solo finishers, levers, and lighter). No additional charge for shipping, but the taxes do remain in-place. Something about using Yahoo in the ordering process and your zip code. Not sure I agree, but unwilling to stubbornly make a point at these prices. Megan (polite/professional) says they are making room for '07 stock and dumping the '06 stuff. Sure hope they have enough and wasn't smart enough to ask what they plan if they don't.
Regards,
Tom

Too bad they don't have the Chevron rain suit in my size.  A lot of other tempting things, but nothing I really want to need.

Well at least I'm not in the boat by myself now.
Now I will have to beg forgiveness when the Visa bill arrives.
After twenty five years of marriage I have found it easier to (beg for forgiveness than to ask permission)

Come on boys your got to turn it around on here! When the package comes in open it up and run over n give her a kiss and say "honey thanks for all this stuff you got me." ( You must look suprised for this too work)
She will probally respond with "I didnt get that for you"
while she is saying that pick up the box and "say weird I wonder who did? "and go into the garage.

I just followed the link, and didn't see anything about a sale. Prices looked normal retail too. Did I do something wrong?
