Hi all,

I'm obviously new here.

I'm from Belgium, Zoutleeuw and riding a motorbike for 12 years now.

Started with a Honda Shadow ACE 750. After 92K kilometers changed it for a Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500. The Kawa had in the end +120K kilometers.

And now I'm ready for the next adventure. Just bought a second hand Triumph Rocket III. It's from 2005 and has 29K kilometers.
Hopefully I will be riding this one for some years.

I use the bike mainly to go to work. (+/- 140 km a day)

They have changed the battery when I picked it up in the garage, but I'm afraid a screwbolt is not totally fastened, so I was trying to get the seat off. That's how I ended up to the forum.

When I have some time, I will sure look around and do some postings


Regards,

Django

Hello Django and welcome from Virginia. I hope you have that screw sorted by now. I need to get a new bolt for the back side of the seat as I just found mine is stripped out now from its last time in the shop.

Ubiquitous Jamie

Hello Everyone,

Glad to be here. Still born in Montreal Canada, partially raised in Washington DC and a former Illinois resident. Still hard-core Swiss. Still 57. Still riding a mildly customized Jaguar racing green Rocket III, vintage Oct. '04, with about 10'000 miles on it as this is written. Have just added a graphite '06 675 Daytona to the stable... but it's still in the dealer's showroom with the 50 miles I lodged on it 3 weeks ago as part of my self-imposed "try and buy" challenge, as Geneva is still snowed under. What else? Oh yes, I'll go on early retirement next May or June.

Standing still right now. Is this post going anywhere?

Hallo,
I'm Manfred from germany, riding a TR3 since march 2015, mostly together with my wife as pillion rider.
Before riding the TR3, I was riding a BMW R1200 R.
I began motorcycling in 1974 with a BMW R27 (250 cc).
I am still working and only have time for riding about 5000 km a year. I'm also member of the german Triumph Rocket Riders Club.
May be I'll get to know some TR3 interesting enthusiasts at this forum.
