Triumph Rocket 3 Roadster
Hi Guys

R3R owner from Gibraltar here. Bought my rocket 8 months ago and loving it. Mostly do 2 up riding in Southern Spain. Posted a couple of pics of my baby and as you can see done a couple of things to it. Looking to adding a Corbin seat and perhaps a lower suspension in the not so distant future so to give me better stability on the stop and around parking lots and a new exhaust will follow that. Great to be in the forum amongst experienced rocket riders.

G'day and Welcome Alex. Good to have you join us .. not so good hearing you are thinking about lowering your Roadster .. few Owners have come undone with peg-rail scrapping and digging in through corners

It looks very different now.

As has been suggested - you'll regret lowering the suspension - lower the seat!. Get a 1-pce Triumph "Classic" seat and have it reupholstered (if you feel the need) rather than buy a Corbin. Cheaper - Better.
 
Welcome from Mississippi! You'll have the strongest legs in the world soon from holding the beast upright on all the climbs and curves of Gibraltar! The southern coast of Spain is a beautiful place to ride though!
