In our case, the show would be at the Javitz center in NYC.

Do you know how much it would cost us to have a decent display there? It's a heap of money.

More than we can afford, and we sell a good number of Triumphs. Individual dealers -especially smaller ones- have to decide what area of promotion will bring them the best return for their investment. Triumph (and Ducati as well) have posted national year-over-year sales gains of 7% plus, in a year when virtually every other decent sized marque declined or was flat.

They know what they're doing, and have the consistent results to prove it.
