I think Triumph are being very sensible.They are a relatively small company and we have to be realistic about the reources and money required to do the big shows.For comparison,the big national show in the UK was at the NEC Birmingham.Triumph were there of course,but the only Italian manufacturer was Ducati.No Aprilia,MV or Moto Guzzi.It's all about cost.I belive it's about £500,000 just to hire the space - that's a lot of cash for one show.Triumph dealers are the best place to see the bikes and my experience is that it is much easier to get a testride on a Triumph than other makes.
