triumph has done a lot of cool things over the last few years. paying their employees while their factory was rebuilt for instance. i love their bikes, enjoyed the hell out of my sprint. Enjoyed the Buell i had as well.
this is very cool as well, BUT, it is simply an invitation for buell owners to spend their money at triumph events rather then HD events.
all motorcycle manuf are hurting right now and if they can use a little tactic like this to grab a little extra cash they will.
it's not like triumph events have ever been exclusive to only their brand. ever triumph ride I've been on wound up having every brand in attendance. you try for just english rides but it just doesn't happen.

just thinking out loud, don't let the emotional "oh someone still loves us" cloud the real world.

But I like it in the fake world where everyone is looking out for me.

I understand why they're doing it. Money is the bottom line. But, who else did it? As I've said before, every buell owner I know has considered a triumph.

This is just a silver lining to the grey cloud.
