I was a member here for a few years while I was riding my 2005 R3...

My wife and I both teach, so, without kids to worry about we started going on longer and longer summer rides. The last few have been around a month long in addition to the usual motorcycle pilgrimages like US129 etc... That sort of touring is way easier on my current ride, a 2009 H-D E-glide police. A hammock seat, cruise control, and amazing dealer support have made it a great touring steed.

But I'm only 27, and other than the month on the road when it's really nice to have the HD I'm way too young to be riding a grampa-glide and really miss my R3...

So, I'm searching for a nice R3t and am excited to be back on 3 cylinders by the summer of 2013.

Welcome back to the fold.

27? Jeez you're younger than Mitch!
Welcome back. Frankly, I don't know how you could leave but I can understand your reasoning. Good luck with your search. I'm sure you'll be able to find something with a few goodies without too much trouble.

Thanks for the welcome, guys.

My old user name was either Barzeen or theBarzeen I can't remember.

I wish I could keep the cop-glide for the long trips and just get a roadster for around town, but...

although as a teacher I get good riding time, it'd take me a decade to pay off both bikes, budget only allows for one bike at a time.

I'll miss the dealer network on the long trips, but my local triumph dealer ( MCC in Villa Park) is awesome and for the 48 weeks a year I am at home I'll be 100% happier on an R3t
