New Rocket 3 owner!

[Hood49]

Hello!!

Last week I have been for a test ride on the new Rocket 3. What a machine! Until now I was driving a KTM Super Duke R. Lovely bike but I was looking for something more comfy and laid back. However, I still wanted the buzz of the torque. I found a Phantom Black in stock and picked it up last Saturday. I got a good deal with the Quickshifter and heated grips included. But unfortunately they are in back order. Apparently Triumph have sold out the accessories. Breaking in is not such a problem. There is lots of fun under 4k rpm. It slides so nicely in the corners!

Welcome from France,
Have some fun with your nice toy.
It is funny as R owners are changing a few accessories which are standard on GT and GT owners do the contrary.
As somebody said here, the best one is a GT-R

I am from Belgium. Not far.
Indeed, the heated grips are standard on the GT. But the position of the GT is not for me.
