Well, I'm not so sure that Triumph hasn't in the past hasn't OR even presently doesn't "use Harley-Davidson as business model" to some extent.
Remember a few years ago when H-D was under-producing for the amount of interested potential purchasers out there, and the old saw was, "They sell every one they make!"???
Well, hasn't Triumph's rationale for their limited production and the excuse I often hear as to why Triumph doesn't advertise in the mass media(and the cause of our continually hearing the question, "When did they start making those again?" posed to almost every modern Triumph rider out there...and this question comes EVEN from MOTORCYCLISTS!!!) this very same rationale? Unlike, I might add, what the japanese Big Four's production/sales scheme seems to mostly have been over the years.
