Any body else get this? Arrived yesterday, bikes featured
Sprint.
Tiger.
Street 3.
Speed 3.
Bonneville.
Some Meccatwins.
Rocket.

Not even a mention or picture of an America or Speedmaster

Nice pictures all the same and advertisements for prestige products, Maserati etc

Perhaps they are keeping them for the next edition with the launch of two new bikes in three months.

Are there any details on how to subscribe? I tried to sign up when I bought my bike but the screen said my model was too old to qualify.

Tell them you can have my copy. I'm not at all impressed. My garage is already overloaded with Italian performance cars and I *own* a casino, so why would I want a VIP account at someone else's?
The only saving grace was the article on the Bonnie in Paris.

I gave my VIN when I tried to sign up for RAT and it gave me a "sorry, out of date" screen (or something similar) and, frankly, I got mad and didn't try again. This forum and "the other" forum were most welcoming so I just chalked it up to a bad corporate experience and let it go...

Each time we see the Triumph magazine coming out I read on different forums the same types of comments. It is quite easy to see we as Triumph enthusiastic are not happy with the magazine they produce. So what are we doing about it? Well to date I don’t think much.

So here is an idea I am prepared to take Triumph on about this. So who would be interested in voting in a poll and leaving comments on the mag? I will then contact Triumph once the poll has run its course and ask for a response to the customer’s feelings on this.

I thought the each issue had at least one or two interesting articles worth reading.

It is certainly not worth the subscription cost, uh, wait - there is no cost. Too bad we have to pay to join, uh, nope, no fee either. Normally, I'd call that a pretty good deal.

I'd vote in your poll. Oh wait, I haven't received anything from Triumph since I bought the bike. Not even my "dealer performance questionaire". I asked the dealer about this and they said they would check into it. So far, nothing.

I had my bike for almost a year before I got my survey from Triumph.

Did you sign up for RAT on the Triumph web site?

Yes I did, almost the minute after I got off the bike after bringing it home from the dealer.
