If the takeover goes ahead (there's no sentiment in big business) imagine what that will do for the resale of our pre-Indian Triumphs.don't know about the States but over here in Australia we can buy new 500cc Royal Enfields built in India, and there a heap of s%#t. Say no more.

Well David, not that I'm defending "IN-JA"(isn't that how you "Commonwealthers" say that country's name? ), but I have a feeling that the reason those Royal Infield Bullets ARE a P.O.S. is that they're a 60 y/o design(or more), and they weren't any better when the fair of skin in Ol' Blighty were pumpin' 'em out.

That being said, I also certainly hope that Triumph stays put for the most part on that little island across The Pond.


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)
