Beautiful day in Oklahoma today. I took the 98 Vulcan Classic out at sunset to dust it off and keep the battery charged.

Those are real. We have since sold the Boxster on the right. Still have both Triumphs. Been through other bikes since then too.
The triples street fleet.

Oh I will never forget the rocket III. When I was in college in Texas, I had a YamahaR6 and I used to visit an uncle in Houston frequently that owned the Triumph. So every now and then, I'd take her out for a spin and I still remember the distinct feeling of sitting on an 800 lb machine that had so much torque that the chassis wanted to twist from under me when I sat in neutral and just revved the throttle and I remember thinking to myself "What were they thinking? But I freaking love it". Contrary to what most people would expect, the in line three was really really quick,i remember reading that they had to limit it to prevent people from hurting themselves. The Uncle never had any problems keeping up with our crotch rockets, in fact, gave us a run sometimes. Haha

The Rocket III is pretty bad ass. While my Daytona is no Rocket III when is comes to torque there is something to be said for 3 cylinders. You get the low end torque of a twin and the high rpm horsepower of a in line four.

Hi new here. I have a couple of bikes that I don't ride nearly enough. An Aprilia SXV Supermoto and a Ducati Monster. Last year was 2 track days and I think three rides in the hill country and riding to and from COTA for MotoGP. Thank heavens for battery tenders. Ugh

Some lovely bikes there guys. I particularly like the Triumph Rocket III.
I am jealous of the weather you guys get, Scotland gets quite a bit of rain although on a nice sunny day, the scenery can be breathtaking.
One days rain is another days whisky as they say :-)

Hello all - I am new to the forum, but have been lurking for awhile. I just purchased a 2002 Boxster with 54,000 miles, new top and brakes. New engine was installed in 2008 and it has been driven 5,000 miles since then. I've had several cars over the years, including two with mid-engines ('75 FIAT X1/9 and '03 Toyota MR2).
Also have had several bikes over the years and currently have a 2011 Kawasaki Concours14.
I am moving back to the Dallas, Texas area in a few weeks and look forward to again riding and driving through the hill country and up toward Arkansas. Some nice roads. Currently in South Florida and nice weather but lousy riding/driving.
