I wish I still had the magazine, but I remember reading the story years ago about how they bought those Triumphs. If I remember correctly they went to the H-D dealership and no one would talk to them. So, they went to Trump shop and bought all 3 bikes paying cash. Next they bought new Levis pants and jackets as well as engineer boots. Then they road across Texas running into rain and ruining their clothes. I think the magazine was Classic Bike, maybe 17 years ago. Great video.
In contrast to his stage image the old Buddy was quite the lad in real life, good score guys.
