I just played a form of Russian Roulette by placing....

[John Backlund]

....an ad for my '22 Triumph Rocket 3R on our local Facebook Marketplace, feeling pretty confident that it wouldn't get any serious responses.

But it did, and now a guy is coming over to take a look at it on Sunday when I'll be back home from four days in Sioux Falls.

My bluff may have been called, my Russian 'Rouletted'.

I hope not......but!...

If he offers to buy the bike for the amount I need for it, I guess it will be gone and that's that, and I will only have my BMW R1200R to get me through the riding season this year.

Didn't you just have it 'tuned up'? What were you thinking???

 

[buster poser]

Noooooo

 

[prairietelecaster]

Ditching guitar is clouding your brain.

 

[trandy9850]

That doesn’t look like a motorcycle….it looks like a missile.

It frightens me….

 

[Fretting out]

What in the world! Is that an inline 3?

Didn’t know they had those on bikes

 

[getbent]

less is more!

 

[cometazzi]

less is more!

I think the sig is "Les is mo".

 

[RLangham98]

Eh, sell it, and console yourself by getting an 80's Goldwing.

 

[Jupiter]

I don’t…
Understand
This behavior…

I mean, that bike looks like death on two wheels, but why would you list it while hoping it doesn’t sell? That sounds like a wife-pressure move but I know it’s not that in your case…

$1050 worth of 'tune up', but it's a very good selling point to have had it done.

 

[John Backlund]

Didn’t know they had those on bikes

An engine with three cylinders in a line, 1,2,3.

Just like an inline six cylinder engine, but half.

There's all kinds of three-in-a-line engines used for motorcycles. My first inline triple was a 1974 Suzuki GT750 two stroke 750, it was a transverse inline three cylinder, meaning it was situated crossways in the frame.

Already had a bunch of Goldwings, six, if you count the '99 Valkyrie 1500.

That's enough of them for a while.

I just bought a nice little house in SD on FB marketplace, for an AMAZING price! It even comes with guitar wall hangers in the living room! Packing up now...

Oh, I was hoping it was a V6.

Well, here’s one:

 

[DekeDog]

What a cool looking bike!

 

[gitold]

First guitars and now this? When are you joining the monastery?

Man with split personality often finds himself immersed in conflict.

Home of the mile long swing arms...

What a beast!
