Full Dress R3GT

So, my twoTriumph own'n brotha, how are you liking the Tiger? I'd venture to guess pretty well since you already have at least 500 miles on her

The Tiger is a blast to ride. It's everything I like about a ******rocket without having my body twisted up like a pretzel to ride it. It handles great, filtering through traffic (safely) is a cinch (great visibility) and the gas mileage is terrific! I'm averging 55.3 mpg.

Gas milage is awesome, better than my 38 mpg on my pretzel maker

Not all of 'em twist you up. I LOVE the Speed Triple riding position. I do NOT like the Sprint ST. The real pretzel maker, however, was my '07 ZX-6R that a guy traded for one of my old Harleys. That was fun bike to ride for about 10 minutes.

My Speedy's not too bad. Once you get up to speed the wind takes the weight off of your wrist. I really enjoy riding it around the house on our Farm to Market roads. On the other hand, I wouldn't ride it to Sturgis

 

[RocketDaryl]

I'd ride my Tiger on a trip in a heartbeat. It's real comfortable.

My ..... I wouldn't ride it to Sturgis

Ahh.. Come on you weeney.. If a 70 year old guy can ride a Kawasaki Ninja 600 to Sturgis, surely you can make it on a Speed Four... .. lol



Of course, you have the Russel Day Long alternative sitting there..

I've been riding the Roc to work this week, getting the new rear tire and new brake pads scrubbed in. Got the big trip (3000 miles) coming up in one week.

Big Sexy luxury tourer

Hey there, i've waited long enough for that bike.I hope they make it . In the mean time I'm going with the hoppe quadzilla fairing. And maybe triumph offers a top trunk next year as an accessory.when they build a true luxury touring bike expect to pay close to harley money. That's the down side.plus the weight has to be in the mid 9oo's. Reverse gear?1600 miles and I still love my R3T. Has slipped into neutral a few times. Is this a known issue? Or a non issue?

 

[ROCKETHEAD]

Well I love mine...
