I happen to have in my possession some secret photos taken outside the Triumph factory at Coventry of a test ride of Triumphs new 1200 cc cruiser. Anyone is eligible to view the photos for a nominal fee. Not a bad deal for such amazing photos!! This sensitive surveillance was obtained via incredible odds and I might add, at considerable personal cost. Dont miss out!!!

email me for more information.

Hey TR6,

I believe they are neighbors and bp had a BA but sold it and got a hardley. Beanache bought a BA which made bp jealous.

So now he trolls here stirring the pot. Poor baby... I pity him.

NOT....

uhuh.. if such photots actually exist and if they're genuine the bike mags'll pick them up and you can get em for the price of the mag... I'll wait, and put my trust in a slightly more legitimate & believable source.

Backporch is my best friend and he is really cooler than anyone here. If you really think about it, he was smart enough to trade his '02 Bonneville America for a fully dressed 1989 Harley. Then he turned that into a road king that leaks like a sieve. I wrote all about his infatuation with the finer things in life on the old board. I believe these included such things as robbing retirement homes, stealing ice cream from little kids and beating up the handicapped. Actually the pieceofshit is pretty intelligent when it comes to bikes but just likes to stir the pot. I'm glad you caught the Princess Bride reference.

Just remember
Beanache = coolguy
backporch = reallystooopidassholetrollthatlaughsatme (that's his Indian name)

Don't panic, this is probably a pre-production bike. Triumph still needs to "polish" some of the details.

We might have our first candidate for banning from the site. Up until now all the trouble makers have removed themselves from the site or shaped up with a bit of gentle prodding in the right direction. I guess we'll see how far he takes it over the line.

That's OK,
Stay on the backporch. I am saving money now for a deposit on the new cruiser on announcement day - sight unseen, with no possibility to even get a glimpse from you.
Keep your picture, maybe it will help you through some lonely times. Hope everything heals up well.
No Thanks,
Dennis

I think you may want to consider applying the word "audacity" to yourself. "Trying to help out" whilst putting a price tag on your "help" is maybe fair capitalism, but it feels just a little tacky. And I'd be curious to know what "costs" need to be covered, considering that many of the members on this board seem to incur no cost with regard to all the pictures they post. I haven't heard ANY of them ask for money to share their pics.

The more surprising aspect to this situation is that you honestly believe someone will give you money for your alleged pictures. We're all fairly enthusiastic and passionate about our love of Triumph motorcycles, but not stupidly so.

Feel free to keep the pictures and we'll try to carry on life without them. What you've never had, you've never missed.

Siggy


If life wasn't so pointless and absurd, I would take it more seriously.

Backporch is an ASSwad, but I think all this talk about banning people from the site is idiotic. If you think I am calling the people who want to ban another person idiotic, you are right. Unless you do something like malquist did to robert, I think there should be no talk of banning. Some people like controversy and don't want people blowing smoke up their asses all the time. Personally, nothing makes me laugh harder than when I see one of these guys get their panties all in a twist over some harmless fun. In fact I am looking forward to the responses I get. The only way I could be sad about this message if it is ignored and not responded to at all.

Just like in the late 50's, HD is feeling severe pressure to produce a bike that has the same technology, style and superiority as the motorcycles being produced by British manufacturers.

That being said I present the 2006 Sportster....

Paul or bp or whoever the hell I am talking to,

If you are going to post garbage, expect all ends of the spectrum to reply.

If you can't take it, don't post.

btw, do you also shout 'fire' in a crowded area so you can laugh at the reactions?
