But, seriously, how do you feel?

I may have struck a nerve here.

Yea, I (and some Harley buddies) Road Captained for demo rides for the Triumph truck one year. Got a really bad coozie out of a day's worth of leadin guys around. I ultimately bought a R3R after riding it most of the day. So lets see, 10c coozie for $14,000 bike ... seems like a good trade.

I like the Victory, great looking bikes. Just not digging all the cladding they put on them. I like my bikes bare, but they make a nice machine no doubt.

I know, tell us what you really think Josey. They ain't about motorcycle enthusiasts that work for a living. They like their peissy little catalog model types. Sorry I wasn't pretty enough Triumph...........uh, no I'm not. Wisdom comes with age. Ride a Vision, me and Sonny Barger do and we ain't neither one too danged pretty but we RIDE and We Are Real People.

Coozie, cheap foam cover for your beer can to keep it cool. Had the Triumph logo screen printed on it.

Thanks for the info ,WOW! Mr Triumph really let his head go ,in Oz we call them stubby holders or coolers, most Trade stands at Car/Bike shows give these away for advertising purposes , there is usually a stand where they take a photo of your ride and put it onto a cooler for a small charge.

I do applaud the engineering department of Triumph that had the guts to design this beast and the men and women that build them.

There is a disconnect between the arrogant folk inn Atlanta and the riders in America. Not sure why you would bite the hand that feeds you.
