Update:
Triumphs / R3R - Best to enjoy and know how to work on them or have a budget & desire to allow for it by a professional.
It's a thrill ride - had to do it. Now that is done - moved back to more reliable maintenance friendly bike(s). 1800cc metric(s) are more than enough for me, more comfortable and overall performance to my preference. M109R, VTX, Raider, Valkyrie, etc. No disrespect intended to the Rocket crew.
Hello from WA State - Been riding 45yr's, last 20 have been metric cruisers/sport cruisers. I knew my riding experience was never going to be complete until having an affair with the R3R. I've kept my eye on the market for about 5 years (it has to be the right deal) well, that came up 2 weeks ago - 2017 Roadster - Triumph Bags, Shield, Backrest/rack, 1,100 miles.
I'm a fair-weather recreational rider and fortunately live at the mouth of the Columbia River Gorge which provides unlimited routes, destinations, terrain, vistas, with minimal traffic. I also have the good fortune of several friends to hook up with or just clear the mind solo. IN A FEW WAYS WILL MISS IT - BUT NO REGRETS MOVING ON...……….
