Triumphrat

Just got my copy of the new look Triumph magazine and after a quick flick through it, I was not impressed with what I saw. Ok, the photos are nice but the whole thing is too sterile (if you see what I mean!). Will report back after reading it.
And there's nothing in it about any RAT activities. I liked reading about the various RAT groups around the world :-(

Hi Cardiffian. I have only had a quick flick through my copy and wasn't impressed either. It doesn't inspire you to read it..............I will however have a look and let you know what I think. Will be interested to hear any other comments about it.

Hi Cardiffian

You're lucky mate. Here in New Zealand our NZ RAT site is still showing 2006 events. No mention at all of 2007 events even though we are now into the second half of the year. Pretty poor if you ask me :-(

It dropped through my letterbox a couple of days ago and now that i've had a chance to read it, i'm sure glad I don't have to pay for it

Crap aint it, just fancy adverts for expensive tat and loads of sales pitch

I think you just about summed up the new magazine there butty!

Triumph have paid good money to redesign the old magazine. They were ripped off IMO by a poncy design house.

I was wondering when the new rag would decide to come out of the closet. I mean, *** is the deal with selling high fashion Triumph branded handbags and faggy looking fashion Gap/Express/Old Navy t-shirt designs? Triumph used to stand for tradition, brotherhood, and style. Nowadays they seem to be going more and more down the metrosexual boutique route...

Next thing you know they'll have mens panties, I mean briefs.

I seem to have not reregistered or something as they don't send it to me any more.....sounds like a good thing then !

I think my new local dedicated Triumph dealer sums it up...too interested in selling and not to bothered about service ?

Theres a form at the back to fill in and give feedback, My I suggest that we use this to express our dissatisfaction in this publication ?

Tell them it is DROSS and not worth reading
