Believe me, I share your sentiments completely. The problem is that the business decision makers usually put profits before patriotism. Triumph resurrected itself as being the original British marque for appealingly unique motorcycles. Along with its brutish looks and hooligan engine characteristics, one of the main reasons I purchased the S3 was its British genes. Previously, I said it wouldn't matter where the bike was made as long as it performed and was reliable. However, I have to be honest. If the bike were made completely in another country for cheap labor purposes, I think the cachet aspect of Triumph ownership would be negatively affected.
