Grant, why didn't you get the new 2023/24 Triumph Rocket 3R/3R Storm? Secondly, when you ride in the rain, does the back wheel spin up water/mud/oil on your back ?
@@markettradinggenius Harley Davidson Sportster S was love at first sight. Honestly, I fell in love with this machine and didn’t bother researching any other options. Sometimes, I regret not doing a bit more research, but overall, I’m thrilled with my purchase. And most definitely, you do not wanna ride in rain. There’s no getting around.
@@grantdeizel4844 I hey, we live in Virginia; but pretty soon I'll be heading back to my native island of Oahu in Hawaii to fully retire and live their for the rest of my life; so for another 50 years or so. :). Riding a motorcycle in perfect year round weather on the island is a blessing that very few people will ever experience in their entire lifetime...while I have and will continue to experience it on a daily basis..haha
@ that’s sounds awesome. Maybe one I’ll have the opportunity to travel down there and experience it myself. I love to explore different places I’ll definitely hyu when the time comes . Have a blessed retirement and stay in touch. Cheers!
Think I saw you on Tara Blvd one weekend. I'm down in Griffin. Ride safe! 🏍💨 That rear rack is dope. It's begging for the Kriega 20L tailbag for weekend trips.
I owned a 23 model for one year and did over 5,000 miles. No issues at all, and it was very nice for short rides and riding around town, except when it cooked your leg in summer!, but just too uncomfortable for me on long rides with that short suspension travel. Traded it for the Pan America as I do love the RevMax engine. If you want to feel the potential of your engine then get the Don Performance ECU flash. 😵💫
Hey Peter, you’re not exaggerating about the exhaust. If there’s one thing I’m complaining about, it’s that, but I’m trying to make the best of it. I was considering the Pan Am, but I don’t plan on doing any adventure riding anytime soon. Thanks for your comments and support.
@@nimeshvala1793 If I’m understanding you correctly, I know there’s a kits out there you can buy and mod. I don’t think it’s worth considering the clearance gain. Just my opinion.
@@excapethematrix3422 The fuel economy? Oh my goodness, fuel economy! In the road mode, I get approximately 38 miles per gallon. It also depends on how hard you ride and your body weight. The tank is too small. To summarize, let’s just say you’ll make frequent stops at the gas station.
@ anything brother I’ll be making my two years of ownership review. Anything you want to know, shoot. At this point I have a very good understanding about this bike. Cheers!

How to increase ground clearance 30mm in this bike?

brother what about the fuel economy ??
