Upgrading to a R3.GT

Saigon Jon · Jan 24, 2022

I take delivery of my new R3GT on Thursday from the Triumph dealer in District 7 Ho Chi minh City, Vietnam. I have being driving around on a Thunderbird Storm (see picture attached) and Triumph Speedmaster before that, for many year. I am British, living and working in Vietnam and i love to tour this beutiful country on my Triumph… this is a fantastic country for motorbiking… everybody here rides, and everybody appreciates a big bike… i have always customised my previous bikes but i will keep the R3 origonal for a ffew months whylst i decide what to do to it. There is Great Triumph scene here in Ho Chi Ming City and i cant wait to get out on the mew R3 and get some miles under my belt…

Hello @Saigon Jon and welcome to the site. Congrats on the upcoming purchase and delivery of an R3 GT. Make sure you take some pictures of the countryside along with the new ride when you get a chance. Always appreciate seeing some scenes of our fellow Rocket owners.

Welcome from Keaton Beach Florida. My uncle worked over there as a civilian for 15 years, had to leave when Saigon fell.

Sorry it took so long, loving the Rocket… enjoying riding it in Vietnam. It is monsoon season for another month or so, but when the rains stop ill be doing some nice long trips with the wife (who loves the rocket almost as much as i do). At work everyone knows when I've taken the bike because io have a huge smill on my face all day and leave early to take the long route home… happy days…!
