i have been checking around and i can good a great price on an 07 r3t with either low mileage or has not yet been titled and was used for demos.

so my question is, is there a difference between the 07 and 08 models and is it better to go with 07 with very low mileage(2000 or less) or 08 with higher mileage(around 4000).

thanks

Not sure what you mean. The R3T= Rocket III Touring came out in 08

i thought they started in 07. i guess the guys selling them are misleading people. there are two on ebay that are 07 r3t

Just buy a new one. An R3T or the Rocket Classic. By the time you pay tax and everything on a used one, you're close to the new price.

The 07 was a one year factory R3 Tourer/not touring if I recall. It was a Classic R3 with bags, shield, ect.

The R3 Touring started in 08, as stated above. The rear tire will be the giveaway if you are not sure. Ask for the VIN and run it on the Triumph website to know for sure what you are getting.
