Both Triumph motorcycles and Triumph cars (Both of which I own and love) were largely driven into the ground by poor, shortsighted management. My opinion, but feel free to correct me, outerbanks.



There was more than poor management, there was government involvement with both finance and management, there was a very militant union, there was extreme and sudden competition in the MC market by Japan. All it took in the end was a change in regime of a Prime Minister and the plug was pulled.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. H. L. Mencken
