You'd better believe they
have heard such statements. Just like the rest of us.
In fact, in a good many locales, those of us who know about the continued existence of Triumph are a tiny minority. Clearly, all those bikers aren't depending on this show for
their motorcycle information needs!
Remember, Triumph
was in the show for roughly the first decade of their return to the States. With Triumph still hearing such reactions after all that time and money, don't you reckon that played a role in their decision not to participate now?
