@Boog Triumph should buy back your bike, in the same way Toyota bought back an early Prius with 300,000 miles on it from use as a taxi in Toronto. Triumph could greatly improve their entire line with the knowledge gained from a forensic examination of your bike.

No, no don’t let them buy your bike back!! They will just figure out what they overbuild and apply planned obsolescence formula on it and cheapen up all the good parts!!
