2007 R3 Classic on it's way!

[Biebs]

Hey folks, Biebs here...new to this forum. I'm a 62 year-old long time rider. I've recently been going back and forth between sport bikes and cruisers, but finding I'm too old for the ****** rockets and too bored with HD-type underpowered cruisers. I did a search on STANDARD motorcycles, and saw a Triumph R3 listed. Back when I started riding, Triumphs handled great, but leaked oil and were generally unreliable. I did some reading and found that's all changed. Then I started reading about the R3...awesome! A local dealer just got in a 2007 Classic with 3,200 miles on it in the Ivory/black color scheme with aftermarket pipes, extra gauges, windshield and a few other tidbits. After some serious haggling, got it for $7,500. Can't wait to get it out for some throttle-twisting!
