While I don't necessarily agree with everything Mr. Bloor has done (disclaimer out of the way), I have the humility to recognize that he has way more business chops than I do and that constantly second guessing the way he runs his business is pretty dammed unproductive.




I agree, his success speaks for itself. While other mc manufacturers sales are going down Triumph sales keep going up. He is systematically targeting each class and going after the competition. So love it or hate it, like someone else said, Triumph needed the T-bird to compete with the other 1600-1700 cc crusiers out there. I happen to love it. I didn't really upgrade I just got something different and I am still a fan of the classic looking America/Speedmasters also.
