My S3T Arrived A Couple of Months Ago

...and I have to say that it's probably the most fun to ride motorcycle I've ever owned. The height isn't an issue so I'm not going to need to lower it. I will be replacing the seat with a Corbin and the windscreen with a +8 Gustaffson plastics windscreen in preparation for an extended roadtrip.

Also will be installing an oil cooler, a Kuryakyn LED voltmeter, a Garmin V GPS and associated powercord, a backoff brake light and headlight modulator device, and heated handgrips.

Overall, I think this is going to make for one extremely competent touring bike.

I seriously thought about buying a S3T in 2002. They looked like fun rides.

Congrats on the new bike! I'm hoping to get a Buell XB12R soon. GOtta get my credit cleaned up some first though.

I've got an XB12S and just got back from an 1800 mile weekend in N. Georgia mountains. It rocks!

Congrats on the S3T. The tube framed Buells are keepers. Oustanding. The S3T is essentially the Cyclone with fairing and bags. Zero issues with mine. Nothing but grins.

Pictures..finally.

Well, the modifications to my S3T are almost complete, and so I've attached a few pictures.
