Just trying to see how many of you are out there, or may I be surprised. I see some bikes around town but not sure about the outskirts. Give us a shout.:

I'm a Detroiter, but Indy is my second home. I'm blazing up & down I-69 several times a year. If you ever have a big function, let me know.

You're not a Ball State grad, are ya? If so, I'll type slower.

Other side of the state, near Chicago. Are there any dealers in South Bend or the Fort that are RAT? I know the guy in Kalamazoo runs a great dealer and is very enthusiastic. We need a RAT North of Indy.

summit city

I've seen some riders in the city,I don't think they use the forums though. Gaptoothgrin is the only one I know,as he has a T-100 and uses the forums on a as- needed basis. He's about 3 blocks from me. He bought his bike in Kalamazoo, he's pleased with their service. I bought my bike at Indy Triumph,they have decent service,however I agee ,It would be nice to have a Triumph dealer *Northern Indiana*. Gas keeps going up that may turn in to a reality. I'm sure there are other riders on the rat besides the twin hangout. I think I may post in the general hangout and see what comes up. Can't wait til' summer. I'll catch up with you guys.:Speed.

I'm in Lima, Ohio and bought my Bonnie at Joe's Cycle Shop in Dayton, about 70 miles away. Up till December of '06 there was a Triumph dealer in Toledo. Also about 70 miles. They also sold Big Dogs, American Iron Horse, and Indian before they tanked. Usually had a showroom full of the high dollar stuff.

That's South Suburban Triumph. http://www.ss-triumph.com/ I've bought three bikes there in four years. It's a great shop, but not a boutique. Old school. Bikes, service, parts counter, free coffee and the best dealer in the area.
