Someday

[FROG MAN]

Now I remember why I sold the Vmax. I used to ride a bonneville to high school. I'm thinking get that cabin up on the other side of the creek. Then a garage and one of these.

Sorry Gerald.

You're on your own there old son.

Too ugly for me.

Looks like a car missing 2 wheels.

I like the looks of the touring version of that bike. Of course I much prefer the looks of the new "classic" design bikes from Triumph. They look so much like the '60s bikes, and I liked the looks of them the first time around. HOWEVER, I purely hope they have improved the mechanics and especially the electrics on the new ones. I rode them in the 60s (along with others) and I remember why I quit riding them. They shook worse than a Harley, and leaked about the same and were frequently shedding small parts along the highway. And the electrical system was so bad that I was afraid to ride at night for fear of losing some or all of the lighting. But, if they have addressed those issues, then I wouldn't mind having a new one myself.

Here's the new 2008 tourer:

2008 Triumph Rocket III Tourer

 

I really like the Rocket but I also like these:

 

2008 Victory Vision Tour

 

The FXLiner

I got a while to think about it and let the MFGs get the bugs out.

My friend has an '06 Rocket III...and it is a behemouth. I personally dont like it, but it does go like hell. I'll keep my RSV as the preferred touring machine, nothing else fits me as well as it does
