Guys, I don't think that a Triumph Dealer can make it on it's own. Everyone I've seen has picked up at least one other line. Most times I go to visit one they are loaded with Suzuki's, Guzzi's, Ducati's, and no more than 4 or 5 Triumphs.

But let's be honest. Dealers have to make a living. Triumph isn't exactly rolling successes off the line every year. Most of their Daytona's have been a bust. This newest 650 has got good reviews so far. Our bikes, as much as we love them, haven't been tweaked in years.

Triumph really needs to refresh the line a bit if they're going to have a dealer be able to make it on it's own. Not one to defend the dealers for the most part.

There is a Victory dealer that just opened up down the street from me. HIGH dollar place as nice as any possible Harley dealer you've ever seen. They've been sucking wind since they opened. Drove by yesterday and saw a Huge Suzuki Banner hanging across the front of the place.
