I think Triumph could improve in the performance parts business. But remember... they are a little company trying to keep costs down and compete with the big boys. They've done a pretty good job so far... Maybe they will catch up on this too.
Yup for those demanding a full line of "Screamin Tiger" stuff let's remember Triumph cannot spend a bundle bringing a plethora of fresh performance parts to market with every model revision and be assured of recouping all the dev costs in short order. You can do that if you sell 300,000 bikes. If you sell 1/10 that you have to rely on aftermarket support to help instead of considering them just a competitive nuisance.
