G'day from Australia

[R3R2011]

Dave from the Gold Coast Australia. Test rode a Rocket week before last. Within a week my Thruxton was sold and I am now the proud owner of a 2011 Roadster. Awesome

I own a R3T and had the oportunity to test ride the Roadster during a Triumph dealer ralley in Florida...Awsome bike and power...Can't figure out why someone would want more power except for more "Grin" effect!!
Also, Welcome from S. Florida!

Welcome from this side of the pond. I tested a Thruxton a couple years back and man was that a narrow fun bike. It just begged to be tossed around. It only lacked that fright-train like pull at the bars. That same weekend I rode a Speed Triple and I found a bike I could easily get arrested on. I love the Rocket for it's comfort and arm stretching pull.

Wise move Dave. Thruxton's a real fun machine but there's nothing quite as awsome as a Rocket. Just wait until you make it really go!! Welcome from Canberra.

Welcome for Brisbane Dave. Few R3 riders from around SE Qld on this site.
