Chunky Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I signed the final paperwork transferring my 2005 BMW R1200RT over to Cascades Moto in Beaverton, OR for a new 2008 Rocket III Touring today. I'm actually bike-less until the $1,000+ worth of accessories arrive and are installed. Our weather is supposed to take a nose dive this next weekend that could include snow. I guess I'll have to weather the time it takes to get everything perfect. My friend caught me sitting on my new R3T that included the shipping plastic still on the gas tank and side-bags. I think it's a cute scooter! LOL The Old The New Link to comment

Quinn Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Wow, does that thing come with a football field so you can turn it around? Link to comment
motoguy128 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Look like it should help your hip flexibility. You should be able to perform "the splits" in just a few short months of riding that beast in traffic. Glad you like it. It is a very sharp looking crusiser. Link to comment

Boone60 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 It looks like it fits you pretty good, and it is a real nice looking bike. The RT looks real nice too, and I wouldn't be afraid to buy it. Be Safe Bob Link to comment
Dave in Doodah Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 The look on your face says it all, Bob. Enjoy! Link to comment
tallman Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Enjoy, just allow yourself more room for stopping, nearly 10' more 60 to 0. Link to comment
baggerchris Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Beautiful, and fits you well. I too had hip problems due to dislocating both of them when an errant deer hunter took up the whole of Sheep Ranch road years ago and my wife and I had to take our bike into the roadside ditch. The MSN/Glucosamine stuff has worked wonders for me. Link to comment
