Unfortunately, I have some other financial obligations to wrap up before I down the rabbit hole...but I'll get there. The Rocket's got me by the nads and won't let go! Gotta have it!
 
Hey everyone. Been lurking a bit and did some posting in the "performance" forum on intake/exhaust mod questions but thought I'd do a formal introduction.

I don't own an R3R yet but I can tell ya this: I looked and the Hardleys and the rice cruisers (I don't want a sport bike) and then thought, "Huh...lemme see what Triumph is doing these days". So, I go doodling around and come across the R3R. Holy mother of awesomeness Batman! That motor...oh that motor!! I did a good bit of research and trolled the forums here and it was all over. No contest. Done. ****...this bike is everything I could ever dream of wanting in a motorbike. Problem is I'm waiting on money (grrr). I'm an independent catastrophic claims adjuster and work has been slow...so getting the R3R now is not a good financial decision right now. Need to pay off my car too before getting "The Beast". But I assure you...I WILL be getting this bike. I'm so stoked I can hardly wait! Here's the build I want:

2013/2014 R3R Phantom Black
K&N triples/possible claw mod
Jardines
Secondaries removed
PC5+AT or Tune ECU (not sure which one yet)with Hanso approved maps
Possibly a mild dyno for HP/torque graphing
A host of other accessories (grips, flyscreen, pegs, panniers, etc).
Oh...and a BIG parachute brake

Then...I'll be off to hunt Harmless Dandelions.

Anyhoo...howdy from Texas (Bryan/College Station) and I look forward to conversing with you all more. Love the site and I've had some really good laughs from some of the posts along with some very helpful knowledge. You peeps are awesome. ;)

Hey Big block rocket, I'm on the same page as you bro. I seen the R3R and it was hook, line and sinker! I'm not currently a R3R owner, but will be. That bike is the king of beasts. This forum is awesome, too.
 
Yeah...kinda sux. The desire for "The Beast" is strong yet it's just out of reach. What a terrible dilemma this is.

I can only slightly quench my thirst by doing research and getting on the forum but that's really just a mere pittance to quenching my blood lust.

What the f#ck are you talking about :cool: quench what bloodlust ... it is a ..... motor .. cycle.
 
It's not just a motorcycle...it's THE motorcycle (for me anyway). I guess since you've already drank from the well...you can't quite understand my "blood lust". I WANT THIS BIKE (but can't get it yet)! GRRR.

And yeah Canberra...I'll sic that little sucka on anyone who desires a good dose of whup-ass. It's easy to miss a mild mannered rodent...until he lobs a few founds into your ankles. He's kinda like a ninja rodent who likes boom-boom weaponry so to speak
