Wow I rec'd my patch and magazine or was that an accesories catalogue. What a piece of crap. I feel like phoney tool signing up for that shite. I did use the patch to cover a big whole in my Hatteras choppers sweat shirt.

A Triumph rider who wanted more than fluff and pretty pictures...you're not exactly living up to their target audience expectations now, are you?

What!!! You don't want to smell like Ewan McGregor or shred like Slash? Wouldn't you like to know where the nearest "Triumph World" dealer is to you? Or that Tridays is in Europe and nowhere near the US market?

Wait....there's something on dirt track racing in the US back in the 60's & 70's. I guess that's supposed to inspire me to take my 2007 TBA ripping down some old dirt road (or snow covered field) and imagine the roar of the crowd urging me on in the tight turns.

Sorry, this issue doesn't do much for me.


Blue/White 2007 TBA, Thruxton needles, Unifilter, AI removed, Polaris Bellmouth, Bubs, Nology Coils/wires, Lightbar, Ricor Intiminators, Hagon Nitros, Tall Sissy Bar w/luggage rack, Dart flyscreen & Lowers. 130 Mains, TrueGel Battery MG12-BS.

Come on guys, does Suzuki, Yamaha or Honda give you something for nothing?

It's not exactly a thrilling mag we all know, but it didn't cost you anything, and they even put there email addresses in so you can complain.. irene@fms.co.uk

I received the magazine and the patch and it's not bad. I'll take what ever they want to give.

I agree on the free point but do think the rag could stand a little improvement. Maybe some little cartoons here and there at the bottom of the page. Interesting Triumph trivia here and there, stuff like that instead of just a multi-page ad.

Well said Ray!

And for those of you that don't want it, please email Irene and ask to be taken from the mailing list so we can avoid the complaint rant next quarter. And, maybe someday you'll have a change of heart and renew once Dog gets the editor's position. I know I'm looking forward to a cartoon or two...

Wait, lets see, ya like the brand--it costs nothing to get the mag.[unless you consider the price of the bike your subscription fee], they give ya a little patch-- and they are
"pushing" their product.
Jeez, get out and ride, [seems it has been a long winter for some]

Nice patch. Nice magazine ( for free ). The Cromwell helmets look cool.

Yep, I agree. The magazine, I thought, was actually pretty nice and a good read, and I will always take a patch for free. Nothing wrong with that.
