.020 Over
Hi everybody, from the central valley of California. Just picked up my black 2020 R3R last Saturday with 6 miles on it. Spent the last week working out I. The SF Bay Area on active duty orders, so I’m already needing my initial service on it. Thought I would be more in favor of the swept back bars of the GT, but the stock R controls are working so far. Coming from a Concours 14 with bar risers and a touring seat, I was able to put in more miles on the Rocket and longer rides in than I thought I would. Even on an unfaired bike with no windshield, the wind hasn’t been that bad. I miss the storage, but haven’t had any issues riding with a backpack, which I hadn’t done in a while. Heated grips would be a nice to have on early morning rides, but overall I’m super happy with the way the bike rides and handles. Low speed is nice and easy because of all the torque and the bike leans a lot easier and a lot farther than it looks like it should, also it’s lighter than the Concours. But I’m not saying anything people on this forum don’t already know. Love seeing the pictures of all the bikes on here!
