Re: RAT Pack

[Erik Miner <axeis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well here's my $.02 worth. I think the whole marketing concept sucks. 
I think the silly little rat is lame. And I think the name RAT is 
dumb and lacks both class and imagination. The Triumph marque has 
always been a classy act, why down grade the image with a rat. If 
they wanted to use an animal as a mascot why one that is appropriate 
for the product? A rat is a dirty little scavenging rodent.. sorry 
that IS NOT ME! and certainly not what I want to be associated with. 
Until Triumph decides to change the marketing for their owners group 
I doubt it will attract many riders. I mean who the hell wants a 
sleazy looking rat on their jacket or bike. Now the TSRA Bulldog , 
that's got some class!
