Wow, some rant you got going on here. I'm one of the stupid ones too so I thought I would break your points down to something small enough where even I could manage:
1. All the one-off vendors are price gougers and robber barons
2. We will pay anything for custom parts
3. Anyone who buys from them is a sheep
4. If you buy from them, your bike is now the same as everyone else's Triumph
5. If you buy from them, well.... you are pretty much stupid
So why the rant (rhetorical)? Perhaps some feelings of superiority? After all, you do have the most unique Triumph out there, right?
Wait a minute, didn't you
buy it that way???
I have this word stuck in my head..... wait...... oh there it is:
sanctimonious
