if they charge 10 to 15 thousand just for a booth .. I can only wonder what they charge a manufacturer for floor space to set up all the bikes they make

and if you sell all the bikes you make"Like Triumph Does"
why spend all that cash on shows????to tell folks about your bikes???

so why not spend that cash on R&D "Like Triumph Does"

I say smart company




Um... everybody sells all the bikes they make. Do you think Honda is throwing out their bikes at the end of the year? I'll go hang around the Suzuki dumpster and see what turns up.

The argument was that Triumph is using its marketing money on the demo trucks. That's a weak argument since most bike makers have demo trucks or offer demo rides at some of the national bike events.

Besides, Triumph shows up at some of the Euro bike events. Why not in the US?

Heck, even Hyosung is at the IMS!

And now Triumph is ready to debut the long-awaited 20XX Mystery Bike, aka The Thunderbird. You'd think they would be proud to show this bike off across America, but no. Makes me wonder...
