Oh ! Well test ride or not ? It's found the way to John's house and possession being 910ths of the law . . . .

It's a good job it's not my test ride , I would be so disappointed in the size of the thing , that I guarantee that rear tyre would not be going back to the dealers intact !
It just looks small, I could use to loose some weight according to Tripp’s, he reminded me I am a little chubby, most bikes I get on a lot of the bike does disappear, but not my widow maker, she’s long and black like a Cadillac. I really like the new rocket but it’s not gonna fit me for what I’m comfortable on, I do resemble the monkey on the football, I’m sure u know the sayingSo Kevin do you want to look like a smaller man?
Definitely camera angle, that’s all I meant, he looks great on a beautiful bike, the next picture he posted from front fits him good, I’m taller wider and he’s 6’2 and looks slender so it’s gonna be a great ride for him, I too am envious cause I am in love that bikeJohn , has father Xmas stolen your bike ?Congrats on the purchase mate , must be the best Xmas ever !
Nothing worse than being told a bike looks too small , personally , I like to think it's caused by the camera angle ?
It does seem to me tho , that Triumph have sold us bigger guys down the river , anticipating more sales by aiming the world's largest production bike at a broader section of riders , namely those of the 5foot 6 category who would normally gravitate towards the Bobber or Triple ! I did kind of have my heart set on one , but when I saw it in the flesh , it dawned on me that unless the thing could be jacked up 4inches , it would feel way to small for me ! Looks like I shall be saving some money ? I say some , as my mind has been made up . My 2010 roadster definitely stays , with the now imminent addition of a Neville lush 200+ hp kit and undercut gearbox . It's gonna be a while before any new R3 will keep up with that !
I hear what you are saying but do me one favor please. When you see one in person lmk if you change your mind.
Yes I am 6 foot 2 and wider , so def wouldn't fit me either but had my bubble burst when I saw the bike at the unveiling back along , didn't even bother try and get a sit on it as you just know don't ya ? No doubt the bike is a work of art , but I feel they have taken away the road presence , part of which made the original R3 so appealing !
Can’t wait to see yours and hopefully you will at least let me sit on it, I hope I’m wrong because I’m definitely hooked on it.
