Methinks Triumph would be better of going public anyhow, if they were to change the current status at all.




I think one of the reasons they are doing so well is that Triumph hasnt gone public. They can do what they want and what they need to do and not have to please any stock holders. ONce they went public, it is no longer about the bikes or heritage, but all about the money and keeping investors happy.

Not to mention that going public leaves yorself open for a take over. In a private ownership, it is completely impossible.

A private company can go public and still remain independent as well as safe from hostile takeover if the owner retains controlling interest (usually over 50%) in the company.

Of course, eventually this could change after the majority stockholder dies........
