Post by: Tigger_rider on October 18, 2008, 10:55:12 PM
HI All... From BBC news, Princes William and Harry are going on their ride on HONDAS. Are the people at Triumph asleep or dont they care about their princes riding Japanese bikes instead of English iron?  OLY

As triumph no longer offer a big grunty adventure bikes a Honda is as good as any I guess.

Look at how KTM missed the boat w/ Ewan and Charlie... Ignorance..  Would have been a perfect opportunity to get the TI name back in the news.. IMHO..

there was a couple of manufactuers when I was over there,  I think CCM and some other was a British company that used Rotax or similar to make Super moto and DS bikes...

  But I'm sure Honda is funding the charity, and quite honestly if they are PAYING BIG BUCKS to help the charity then dance with the one that brought ya....  triumph doesn't have the cash to support much of anything.

 they only make what 40-50,000 bikes a year?  Not sure what the exact numbers.  


  now if they did it on Triumph Scramblers..... :-)
