i have been spending some of my computer time on an FZ6 forum and on a MV Agusta forum.
8 times out of ten, when conversation turns to "other bikes," the "other" is Triumph.
Triumph is mentioned more than any other maker. well, in the MV forum Duc gets a lot of air time,
with Triumph running a very close second.

how cool is that?

I think Ducati is becoming the new RUB bike.What a pity for such a beautiful machine.

MV Agusta F-4 makes me giddy like a high schooler. I really need to get one and get this over with.

That's it, I'm ready to pull the trigger. My nephew and I went to see the Dark Night last night and what kind of bike does Bruce Wayne ride? That's right, MV Agusta F-4. I believe if I buy one of these machines I too will be able to fly. Now where to put it, the stable is bursting at the seams with 7 bikes, 8 may be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

HaHa, I mentioned the America/Speedmaster on the Sportster forum, asking who had one. Most folks liked them but I did get called a poser of questionable sexual orientaion by one proud Harley owner.

After I saw that Harley bought MV Augusta, I went to a couple of Augusta forums to see what the consensus was. It seems that a lot of the posters thought it might be the end of the world (ape hangers on a F4?), but they also realize that MV Augusta needed to be bailed out by someone in order to survive.

More than likely, he recently found out that Triumphs are faster.
