Why do I get the feeling that we (TA/SM owners) are second class citizens in the Brit bike world, in general, and the Triumph world, in particular? Am I wrong? If not, why is this so? 
Well gosh, Steve! I guess you haven't heard that "real" Triumphs don't have a 270 crank, dude! And to others, "real" Triumphs only have pushrod motors! And yet to OTHERS, "real" Triumphs don't have forward-mounted footpegs. And YET to OTHERS....well, I THINK you catch my drift here by now, don't cha?!
Listen to Friar John here. If YOU like the way your Triumph "cruiser" looks, rides and sounds, who gives a flyin' fig if some others out there are stuck in their own closed off little world view of how "things should be"...RIGHT???!!!
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)
