Jimmyj900...here at the Dallas /Ft.Worth show the dealer had a booth with a Rocket III and (2) nice looking young ladies with a banner telling folks to go to the dealership for the Demo truck rides.
Problem was, no new 675 Daytona's or Scrambler's ...just 2005 Models to my recollection and no 2006's at all. However,the turn-out at the Demo Rides was huge with riders coming in on their BMW's, various Japanese bikes and HD's with most interest being shown in the Rocket III's, Tigers and Speed triples.
In my opinion, I think Triumph figured-out that they can attract more business that way as opposed to handing out catalogs, most of which will probably not result in any sales anyway and wind up at the land fill eventually.
