Title: triumph mag
Post by: abruzzi on March 26, 2008, 06:31:07 AM
Anyone notice that the latest issue of triumph magazine has a little two pager on a guy who loves his 06 tiger?  It has a pretty cool drawing he did of the thie triple's howl sounds like.  If I can find a scanner, I'll post it.  It was nice to see an article that wasn't just about selling the current gen bike.

Triumph magazine?  How could the owner of a used Tiger get a subsription?  Never heard of it.

Ditto.  Zip, nuttin', nada.  Perhaps being on their forum is not the same thing?  Is there something else we should sign up for?

I signed up in Sep '07 and it took a long while before I got my fist issue.  No patch though.

There is a little confusion.  The triumphrat.net forum is not an official arm of triumph, just like this site is in no way endorsed by Triumph.  To "officially" join Triumph's RAT, you need to take your VIN number to the triumph website, and sign up there.

I'm not sure the frequency, but I've had trouble recieveing my copy in the past.  It used to be called "Torque Magazine".  It's mostly a PR and "lifestyle" rag--not really a real magazine, but it usually has nice pictures.

Torque was not much of a mag as I recall.  Never re-upped for it.

Geof, any chance of posting a copy of the article?  I'd love to see it.  Hope your doing well Geoff.  Any luck on getting another Tiger yet?

I'll be near a scanner this weekend, so i could potentially scan the article if no one beats me to it.. only the last 1/3 of the article even really talks about the tiger.. there is a couple of nice pics with it though :)  its a black one.
