This has come up before but I think it's worth another try.
We need a BA.COM Slogan or a Triumph Slogan for the TBA and Speedy.
How About?
Save a hog, ride a Triumph!
or
Don't be a lemming, ride a Triumph
or
Triumph riders are RATs not a Lemmings

Ron, How's about..... If only those "OTHER CRUISERS" were as much FUN TO RIDE as my TRIUMPH is...I'd have one of "THOSE" TOO. Cheers, Dwight (ya see, the beauty o' this baby is that it doesn't specify what that "other brand" is...it kind'a works "across-the-board") 
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)

Yep! It IS rather long, isn't it!  Okay. I'll work on this one and see if I can come up with something, while thinking of that old that adage..."brevity is the soul of wit".  Cheers, Dwight

Triumph, more than a legend, a way of life.
Triumph-Declare Independence!
(I think Dwight said this) You don't own a Triumph, you are just its caretaker.
I ride Triumph because I had a choice
Triumph Motorcycles - you may not be a legend but you can ride one.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

Triumph - Modern classic done right! Triumph - 'nuff said! Triumph - Made in the UK, by British blokes Triumph - It was a choice between this and a bunch of inferior motorcycles. Triumph - YES, they're STILL making them! Triumph - because I didn't need a penis extender to enhance my ego. (This one might get censored  ) Triumph - Because I had a choice. Triumph - Comes with its own cool website at no charge. Triumph - Avoid using the "kill" switch. Triumph - Anything else is just a Harley or something that wants to be one. Triumph - What the others COULD have been. Triumph - Remember to bring all your papers when taking the ferry to Europe! (Sorry Adey  ) Triumph - FIRST the divorce, THEN the motorcycle. That's all, folks!

In the words of Triumph's famous sales slogan, Edward Turner designed "The Best Motorcycle in the World" in its 1959 promotional material. "The Bonneville 120 offers the highest performance available today from a standard production motorcycle," the brochure continued. "This is the motorcycle for the really knowledgeable enthusiast who can appreciate and use the power provided."
My submissions would be: for the more cerebral: "Triumph, for the really knowledgeable enthusiast"
or simply: "Triumph, The Best Motorcycle In The World"

"Strumpets ride Trumpets." "Ride a Trumpet, get more crumpet."
Sorry girls! Someone had to say it..!
"Triumph - because I could" ?
"We go our own way"
"Anyone who rides a black Speedmaster is totally cool and to be respected, unlike other colours of Speedmasters or indeed any other motorcycle who, on a sliding scale from zero cool to just a bit less cool than a black Speedmaster owner, scale in as less cool than a black Speedmaster owner who is totally 100% cool." (Apologies to Arsenalfan!) The last one would be a bit difficult as a tattoo, you'ld have to have bloody long arms..

"a special breed of motorcyclist. Ones who have steered away from the common V-twins, and opted for a more unique experience in a cruiser. We have a style and individualism that many bikers lack."
Some of Robert Wade's own words from the "About This Site" link from the Homepage.
TRIUMPH - for the special breed of Motorcyclist
TRIUMPH - for the Motorcyclist
and I like that "For a parallel twist on a slanted universe" thing too.

There are some great ones listed. My favorite: Quote:
Triumph: You're Probably Not Worthy
This one Quote:
For a parallel twist on a slanted universe
is great too, but requires way too much thought for the HD & Clone crowd.
There was a slogan for navy hospital corpsmen that I always liked, Trust me with your life, but not your money or your wife .
Ride Safe,

Triumph, it's how I live and what I ride.

It's a Triumph thing, if you haven't ridden one you won't understand.
Triumph, what bikes are supposed to be.
Triumph, pure distilled motorcycle
Triumph, a lone wolf in a world of sheep.
God has his Triumph
Triumph, not a copy of ANYTHING
Standing out from the crowd, Triumph
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
