(knock on wood)
That reminds me of an old Peter Egan column in Cycle World magazine there, Larry.
In it, Mr. Egan was waxing nostalgic about his beloved late '60s T100, and he said every time someone would ask him how his bike was running, and if he didn't "knock on wood" after telling them that it was running great at the moment, sure enough he said he'd get a mile or two down the road afterward and the thing would quit on him.
(however Angus...you shouldn't have to do this, as nowdays with the newer Hinckley-built Triumphs, and as Larry pointed out here, these are VERY reliable bikes....knock on wood!) 
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)
