  1. Baxter rally this weekend

    Anyone going? Colleen and I plan to be there Sunday. If we can lock down a sitter we will likely spend the night at a hotel close. Might even have a few cold ones.:D
  2. Gus

    In case you didn't know, Gus has been in intensive care at Immanuel in Omaha, NE for a few weeks now. I guess he's there due to complications from pneumonia and will probably be there for a while yet. Please keep the man in your thoughts and prayers. I am going to slip by there tomorrow and...
  3. Roadster at Baxter's

    Chris @ Baxter's called to let me know they had a Roadster in. Stopped by as I was passing by on I-80. Shiny black, big (I mean BIG) f'in cans. The seat is higher than my standard, didn't know that. Didn't really get a good feel for peg location. Sticker price isn't too bad @ $13,999...
  4. Flame and Tribal paint

    Stopped by Baxter's yesterday and stumbled across a new offering, flame and tribal paint decals. These are $1100 and $1200, a screamin deal if I recall correctly installed OE they would be over $2000. Might be worth a look...:cool:
  5. Screamin' deal

    I just had a call from my nearest Triumph dealer (Breeze Cycle in Omaha NE). They have a new 2007 red standard for $12,500 or $197/month for 6 years no money down.:eek: Guess Triumph found her in a warehouse, so much for fifo! If I didn't already have the fast black model in my garage I...
  6. cold weather and my clutch

    I am beginning to understand that my bike doesn't shift for beans when it is cold. In fact, if the bike is setting outside in 30F weather it will not shift into first gear without killing the motor. After I ride for an hour or so down shifting is much smoother than just putting around town and...
  7. Glowing comments from Cycle World on R3T

    Oct edition claims R3T "won going away, picked as number one by 3 riders and making all 8 riders top 3 list". :DNot bad from the same publication that did not like the standard.:mad:
  8. Cruise control

    Any suggestions for cruise control? My right hand goes numb in about 20 minutes and I think just taking off of the throttle for a minute every once in a while will help. Also with Clearview (plus vent) and lowers I am getting no breeze on these hot days, dropping the lowers in the summer...
  9. Get off the fence

    Just a quick thought for any of you who are thinking about the Rocket III, do it. It's a big bike and you have to respect it, but do it. I have 200 miles on mine and it feels good, like I have been on it for 10,000. Nothing is perfect, but this bike is special ;).
  10. Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

    Yes, I too have been lurking in the shadows. I have been coveting Rockets for 3 years now, but that is about to end. After pooring through this site and looking for weak links I just keep coming up with reasons to get one. It sounds like a fine bike for those of us over 20 stones! Tomorrow...
