Hi All
I just purchased my first R3. i have always ridden Triumph and thought it was time to step up to the big boy . cant wait to get out around Europe.
 
Welcome to the forum from sunny North Texas. I would have loved owning the Rock when I was stationed in Germany. So many great roads.
 
You're gonna love the transition from an America to the Rocket. There is no comparison. I owned an America for 7 years and loved the bike but when I got the opportunity to 'step up' as you put it, it was with a bit of fear and a lot of respect. The America was no slouch for a mid size cruiser but when you twist the throttle on a Rocket... just be ready. Have fun with the new beast and ride safe.
 
WELCOME! to our R3 Family... I too started on an America before moving up to a Thunderbird and then my current Big-Girl. Enjoy your new Perma-Grin
