I see you're from clearlake was wondering which dealer you purchased the r3 from and how the experience went. I'm accross the Sabine in sulphur and planning on making a trip in a couple of months to Houston to get my own beast, so far the only dealer I.have visited was British bikes and the salesman I talked to though he was trying to be helpful and was nice knew nothing about the triumphs he was trying to sell. I just don't want that to translate into any other possible problems as it's a 2.5 hr trip for service.
