Any issues with 2011 Rocket Touring??

That one looks like one of the "auction bikes" discussed in other threads. 26 miles but used.

Still, it's a smoking deal since it is probably still under factory warranty.

I traded my 2014 R3T in October and the UJM dealer where I traded sold it quickly for about that price. My warranty was long expired.

As reported elsewhere, once again I could not withdraw from the R3T and I picked up a leftover 2015 at the end of the year.
 
Hi everyone. I am currrenty considering buying a Rocket. I have been looking at the Roadster primarily. I prefer the looks of the naked bike. I planed to put Viking bags and a windshield for trips and leave it stripped down most of the time.

The touring model was not as aestheticly appealing to me.

HOWEVER .... I stopped in to a HD dealer today who carries a bunch of used bikes from all the manafactuers and they have a Rocket Touring. It looks well used but pretty clean fit the age and miles. I am not sure but I think I may like the touring.

2011 with 27,000 miles. They want $9999.00. The price seems a little high since you can find the same bike new for about 13K.

Does anyone know if this bike has ABS? Any issues I should be wary of? What if anything should I be on the look out for?

I plan on giving it a test ride next week.

Thanks,

Jamie.
No issues mate, I have a late 2011 with ABS and love it.
 
I just had to buy a cluster off of eBay ($185) because my fuel gauge stopped working. The dealer wanted $690 for the part and installation. Triumph America told me it's only the 4th bad cluster in 4 years. Also, the Triumph emblems on both sides of the gas tank are peeling off. The clear coat on the right fork leg is failing. I've owned this bike for 3 months now, and I'm getting the sneaky feeling it's going to be a lot like when I owned my Dodge Diesel truck- to get the best motor you have to deal with a lot of nit-picky "quality" or fit-and-finish issues. I now own a Ford diesel; I hope I don't have to switch to a Harley.
