    R3 Reverberations

    I'm always looking for the lightbar or black & white paint BEFORE seeing blue and red lights.

    R3 Reverberations

    That's also what I've found - our R3's are quicker to the 1/8 mile but after that the big sport bikes eat our lunch. My mirrors are unusuable over 60 mph due to vibration but I don't find it otherwise annoying.

    And now it's time for goodbye.

    It's pretty difficult to get a better motorcycle than a Honda Valkyrie. Terriffic motorcycle!

    OK I"M LAZY "I adimt it"

    Let me clarify here. I had 2300 miles on my R3 prior to replacing the Metzeler with the Avon Cobra. It now has about 5200 but it still has a lot of tread left. I think I'm like most of us that buy a Rocket III in that I enjoy frequent hard acceleration. I also enjoy agressive cornering whenever...

    OK I"M LAZY "I adimt it"

    With 7500 miles now I am totally pleased with the performance of my Avon Cobra rear and original Metzeler front combination. Let me add that I am a very agressive rider.

    Thunderbird Dec E-news

    My Rocket III gets 35 MPG and I'm a fast rider. I'm sure the T'Bird will do as well as a R3.

    HD Seeking Federal Bank Bailout Funds

    I quit cold turkey 31 years ago after smoking a pack a day for 11 years. I can't stand cigarette smoke now. I wish people wouldn't stand in doorways to smoke.

    Cruiser Motorcycle Mentality

    Numbers I've seen published for the R3 say it weighs 750 lbs. The M109 weighs 650. I was thinking the R3 is 800 lbs. (it is, wet) So, in any case, the 109 is at least 100 lbs. lighter. Suzuki uses a lot of aluminum. The entire swingarm is alloy. If you check my post you'll see I didn't say it...

    Cruiser Motorcycle Mentality

    As you already know, when you get into racing faster bikes, the difference is often more about the riders than the bikes themselves ;)

    The 109 is indeed slower but actually not all that much slower than the R3. Remember, it weighs 100 lbs. less than an R3 and handles quite well. They are distinctly different bikes. That's why I own both. Each has it's own attractions. ;)

    Cruiser Motorcycle Mentality

    I own a 2002 VTX 1800 C, 2003 Goldwing, 2007 Suzuki M109, and a 2007 Triumph Rocket III. All are stock with the exception of aftermarket pipes on the 109, intake and pipes on the VTX, and TORs on the R3 (still w/ cat.). The R3 is clearly faster than the rest of them. P.S. - Never cared about...

    HD Seeking Federal Bank Bailout Funds

    I don't think the government has any business bailing out HD, especially right after they spent the money to purchase MV Agusta. Instead Harley should concentrate on producing better motorcycles at reasonable prices.

    Thunderbird Dec E-news

    Yes, but presumably much lighter than our Rockets... I have a deposit on the first Thunderbird my dealer is able to order. I intend to order it (if possible) with the 1700cc upgrade kit iinstalled from Triumph. Before, they were saying the new bikes would be available next June but now...
