Always up for a bit of banter and micky taking with biking friends.
So when a friend buys a thai-umph and claims it is a British bike and maybe adds a few union Jack flags...
Triumph always plays the heritage card but they are not fooling me.
I believe a Japanese bike is better built in Japan and a Italian bike should be built in Italy.
How many people really want a Indian Harley or Beemer.
So I often point out that I own two Japanese bikes (xsr700 and vanvan 200) and there tyres are filled with Japanese air.
Last night I read that my bike is built in France WTF.
Please tell me this is not true.
