Thunderbird?

[cusso ken]

Old thread, but I thought this was funny yesterday, and completely captures why the R3 should be billed with much more fervor by Triumph than it currently is.

On the way to work stopped at a light. The SUV next to me edges forward, which I see in my peripheral vision, I don't turn my head and let the driver take the rocket all in. About 30 seconds later a woman's voice says " Hey nice bike. I don't really like any of the smaller Triumphs, but that is the best looking Triumph I have ever seen".

Bone stock 2014 R3R.

As the lady said size does count.

when I brought the 2012 brocure home my harley loving wife pointed at the rocket and said "i like that one".

That's just what I want to do buy a new bike for 15k and then fix it up? no

, I think he is looking at it from the wrong perspective the Rocket is cheap for the most part when accessorizing. Try that with a Harley and make it "more yours" and then when you are done with that start on the, what they call, "performance mods" and the Rocket is a bargain compared to a Harley.

+1. My Rocket is cutomized I dare say, and I don't have half into it that I do My Ultra
