Looks OK, better than last years. Mag is still fit for aeroplanes and posh dentists though.

The flat tracker is very nice.

I received several copies of the magazine but they were pretty lame. I'd rather have a RAT patch but never got one.

If anybody doesn't want their patch or has an extra, please PM me.

I have one of these I'll trade for a RAT patch.

It came free with the mag this morning.

Did you get that from a Polish guy from Ebay ? if so I designed them for him.

I got the Welsh version.

Borg-did you also design the oval patch these ebay guys sell? The one with the Union Flag on one side,and a checkered flag on the other,with"Triumph"in the middle,with the model(such as Bonneville) underneath? If so,please design one with "Scrambler"

I've owned my bonnie since last Nov. and I've never seen the magazine. Although Triumph keeps sending me surveys and asking what I would like to see in the mag. I'd just like to see it so I can judge for myself if it's worth waiting for. I love their bikes and heritage, but their lip service instead of real service is already getting old. I don't really expect anything from a company other than a good product for a good price (which I got), but Triumph set their own bar so high with slogans and commitment to owners that I think they could never realisticly acheive. My $0.02

Have you gone to the web site and joined RAT though ?

Here's what the new badge looks like, it's about 2.75" in diameter navy blue, white and silver in colour.

I also bought mine in November...they recently wanted me to complete a survey for new buyers....I did complain about the magazine and the lack of involvement from the official triumph RAT club. Ohh, my god...the magazine...what a load of glossy rubbish...seemed more about euro trash cloathing pics than about the bikes and what its riders are into....really need to pickup their game.

I have to suppose that they are trying to catch up with HD in the (very successful) sale of clothing motorcycling accessories as opposed to actual motorcycles.
