Yeah!!! And I want a sprung-hub TOO!!!

(for the less well versed in Triumph history, that was the suspension-unit...and I use this term very loosely BTW...that was an option on early '50s Triumphs just before the advent of swing arms swept motorcycling into the modern age, where inside the rear hub sat a spring that supplied a whole inch and a half of travel to the beseiged rider...not to mention the quickly worn bushings that would cause the rear axle to act as the proverbial garden gate hinge...now THERE'S real "Heritage" for ya, huh?!)



Now, gettin' back to the new tank...I kind'a like it too, but I think Soren might be onto something here. Demographics change, and it seems the vast majority of "The Newer Set" aren't really that well steeped in the heritage of yore.

(BTW Soren....Chargers are NOT supposed to have 4 freakin' doors, ya know)


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)
