Should I be offended or laugh? - Tev62 - 03-27-2021

I happened across this on a Triumph forum................

With a foot in both camps I don't know what to do? Ah sod it, I'll laugh!

I'm with you. I own two Triumphs and two Hondas, so I'll just smile and move on.

This is the painting of Van Gogh's sister....

Jeez, I didn't know she had such a downer on Hondas?

I like Triumphs. Brand has soul. In my case regarding Honda and Triumph, I have always felt neutral between the two.

To be honest, I wasn't that interested in Triumphs until they came out with the Bonneville model.
A riding buddy bought one back around 2003, and the more I rode with him, the more it grew on me and soon I knew I had to have one.
I dilly dallied for a couple of years and then in 2006 I made the leap and have never regretted it for a second.
My 2006 is an "old bike" now, but it never fails and runs like the wind.

You'd have to have a high tolerance for pain to pull that off

I've owned two Triumphs, a Bonneville and a Tiger 1050, great bikes but I never developed an inclination to shun Honda riders. Sure it was meant in jest.

That painting got lost during the second world war and than suddenly it was found on the Triumph Forum ....

Don't you mean, "You'd have to have a high tolerance for pain to cut that off"? Big Grin

It's an awful picture no matter the caption.
