Default To all those triumph owners who complain about problems

PA! dunno what your complain about, I just watched Tom Cruise riding his. it was hit with about 15rounds and kept going with no problem. He even had long enough after getting it shot in the fuel tank to stop off change his tyres to some nobbly ones before taking it off road without runnign out of fuel. That kind of capacity must be awsome on long journys. Fortunattly the bad guy on his daytona had the same idea about a tyre change so there wasnt much time lost from the fighting. Once resumed you'll be pleased to know that both triumphs were still manouverable and agile off road.

Almost makes a guy wanna buy one, knowing how factual films are and all.

I know what film you are referring to and I would rather be trapped in a lift with a weeks worth of my own farts than watch it again!

It was a very silly film...
