Being an old hand at this R3 lark I'd like to say welcome you all, some of you may know who I am, but please, please refrain from any knocks however small..thanks...
Have done too many miles on the R3 since day 1, the first set of tyres lasted nearly 12,000 miles (upset a few people), have had a new set of wheels (knackered finish), but apart from that I've had no complaints.
Riding at present with cat-by-pass, but hoping soon to fit some louder pipes, have got sissy bar/rack, chrome side panels, and summer screen (removed, did not like), apart from that she's standard.
Paintwork is a bit scruffy, due to throw over saddlebags and tank bag, but hey I bought the bike to ride not to show.
Chrome still good, well except for the footpegs, but then they take a battering from road dirt anyhow.
Would be nice to meet up with a few other R3 riders, but due to my european runs with other Triumph Owners Club (TOMCC England, Denmark, Sweden, Holland, Beguim and Club Triton France) lads and lassies I find my spare time is limited.
I'm 50 this year so going to party this summer like hell, bring on the dancing girls I'm coming...
