Anytime a dealer changes brands their new brand it the best and all others are crap. Bottom line is. Every bike/car/boat/rv has its good, and its bad. What ever gives the salesman commision is the best bike to buy.. Its how they feed their families. Dealing with triumph direcly. I have never had a problem. Not to say we always held hands and agreed 100%. It's a buisness and thier goal is the bottom line. This is true with any company that wants to stay a float in a poor global economy.
