Back in the Saddle Post Motorcycle Crash

[El Toro Rosso]

Congratulations!

I love the R3T.

It reminds me of the Brough Superior. Rolls Royce on two wheels.

Good to hear you are up and ready to ride again. I went thru much the same, crash in August, replaced the totaled R3 with a very similar R3T. You have the extra lamps I do not, otherwise looks the same. I was on the Legacy run, south of Nashville when I crashed, my 5th year of the run. You will enjoy the R3T.

I've been progressively recuperating since my crash that I posted about at the beginning of October. The kid who hit me was driving the car his girlfriend drives, which was owned and insured by her mother. It took some doing to verify that the insurance was good because there was a misspelling of the mother's name and the VIN was off by 1 number. The sheriff's Deputy who wrote the crash report went way beyond the call of duty to get all of that straight and I finally got a check for my totaled Scrambler towards the end of November. I had been looking for my next bike and had pretty much decided that I wanted a Triumph Rocket III Touring. I found this one that was purchased and traded in with 25 miles on it and I had it shipped. It came in yesterday, but I still can't ride just yet because I have to get the tags for it.

This thing is a BEAST, but a manageable beast (as you of course already know). Compared to the Scrambler that seat is like a Barcalounger. I'll miss the off road adventures that I had with the Scrambler... but the bulk of the riding I do is with neighbors and the Legion Riders and this bike will make those rides MUCH more enjoyable.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!
Congrats!

Welcome fro Cape Cod. The Red & Black is my choice when I pull the trigger on a R3T.
