Observations From a New Owner

WELCOME to ya, @WildBill, from Tacoma!

Welcome and very nice bike WB. You did hit the jack pot on accessories for sure. That Corbin trunk alone is a chunk of change. Do you know what the seat on it is? Looks comfy.

It would be nice when you get a chance to get some close up pictures.

Just so you are not too concerned I got my R3T in April. It has been fun this summer. It has fallen over 3 times with me on it. At a full stop. No damage. I think Triumph new this would happen.

My wife Emma was on it the first time I dropped it. I have never seen anyone take such a long time to fall such a short distance.

Festooned with every delight I see! Welcome from Virginia! Yes you will get used to the heft pretty quickly. As for tires...I didn't like the Metzlers either they might as well have come from the factory slick bald! But do try some Bridgestone Exedra Max tires...I got a set and they are great...others extol the virtues of Avon tires. There are a few choices for us thank goodness.

The seat is a Corbin and very comfortable. The previous owner didn't skimp on accessories. I think if I move the handlebars up/forward a bit it may help?
