wow- I thought Triumph owners were smarter than that (lol). Another stereotype busted! Why does someone elses bike have to be bad for mine to be good? The thing I love about bikes is how great they all are (well almost all) If I had time and money enough I would own hundreds! New and old and custom and stock...now let me get this straight- I go to Starbucks when I'm on the BMW, Ernies greasy spoon bar and grill when I'm on the Harley, and Union Garage cafe on the Triumph? What if I want to go to a museum??

Personally, I've always liked Triumph and HD, just prefer Harleys.

Agree. It used to be that way.
Joined a triumph R3 Owners forum shortly after buying Rocket 3 Roadster and saw much of the same crap. Couldnt hardly read throug a 1 page thread without someone bashing harleys and harley riders.

What's the difference between a Harley-Davidson and a Triumph?

A Triumph weighs 450 pounds, has one tail light that doesn't work, and leaks oil.

A Harley weighs 750 pounds, has 57 tail lights that work, and leaks oil.

(yes, it's an old joke, but it seems to fit here)

Not neccessarily - If someone starts talking pure BS on this forum theyre called on it... I dont care about the trash nonsence but the my taillight fell off and I went down was pure BS... If someone on here said that we'd be on him...

And I dont think Im being hypocritical - I dont trash another mans ride. unless its RK13..
