    Rocket vs Thunderbird

    I miss my Triumphs. I had (at different times) a R3T, Bonnie T100 (That I turned into a cafe minus the downward bars), Tiger 1050, Thunderbird and a Speedmaster. I sold all of them because I moved to Arkansas and there isn't a triumph dealer in the state and, unfortunately, I don't know how to...

    Critique this ‘ 08 Touring

    That's the exact color R3T I had. The tops on the bags looked pretty smudged/scuffed up. But, that can probably be taken out with rubbing compound so long as it's not through the clear coat. One thing to be aware of and to ask about. The first year had a poorly designed clutch lifter shaft. I...

    Triumph Gremlin Bell

    My Indian Scout 60, like the Rocket, is designed where the engine is integrated into the frame. As such, there are not a lot of places (desirable places) to hang it. I ended up using a zip tie and placed it on the clutch cable just behind the right side foot peg. Some people purchase the little...

    Re-mapping ECM

    So, as those of you saw my recent post, I've been away from this forum for many moons. I traded my Rocket in on a 2010 Thunderbird when they were new. Anyway, fast forward to now. I just recently bought a new 2019 Indian Scout Sixty. LOVE IT! I bought some Crusher (performance division of...

    Is Dennis still around?

    Wow, R3Net is still chugging along!

    When is Maggie Valley? The one time I was going to go, my R3T busted a clutch part on the way (made it to Alabama) and hosed me out of the trip.

    Wow, R3Net is still chugging along!

    Right on brother. R3Net helped me out immensely when I had my R3T.

    Wow, R3Net is still chugging along!

    Arkansas was the wife’s idea. We’re both from here and all our family is here. I voted to stay in Florida, but my vote didn’t count for much. Lol

    Wow, R3Net is still chugging along!

    Howdy Dave, No, we moved to Arkansas about a year and half ago. All is well here. I don’t drive over the road anymore. Got a gig driving local (home every day). I sold the T100 right before we moved. I have an Indian Scout 60 now. If you get up this way, give me a holler. We’re in the...

    Wow, R3Net is still chugging along!

    I stumbled across an old post while doing a Google search. Pretty funny Google returning results with one of my old posts as the top result. Good to see a lot of the members I know are still around. :)

    last login as a captain

    There are more than a few of us that have distanced ourselves from the worst bike (reliability) Triumph makes, IMO. I'm happy for those that haven't had many issues and I hope they continue to have good luck with theirs. I know Scot in Exile hasn't had hardly a one on his '05. Again, that's...

    Why Harley riders hate the Rocket III..

    That's why almost EVERYONE hates sport bike riders. They are, as a group, the most obnoxious and dangerous segment on the roads.

    Did you check Ebay?

    BMW Lo Rider

    They're not junk. If they're junk, then the same can be said for the Rocket III as it certainly has its share of issues; more so than any other bike I've ever owned. Just look at the current threads: - Transmission issues - Idle problem - Electronic issues Etc... Triumph did the same...

    Last Post for a Long Time

    You can put it in my garage Dave. You and your wife can stay with us if you like. We only have 2 rules. 1. Stay out of the forbidden party liquor and potted meat stash. 2. Touch my Poodle you sheep herder and there will be trouble. :D

    BMW Lo Rider

    BMW should probably take a page out of Triumph's book and produce different models of the R 1200 GS. My Tiger 1050 is a great bike, but I would never take it off road, nor would most people I know that own them. It's classified as a "Dual Sport", or whatever, but I think it's actually closer to...

    Throttle tension adjustment?

    I put a Cramp Buster on mine. I sold the bike a couple of years ago. My neighbor came over today to borrow a tool and I went out to the garage to get it. When I opened the drawer in my tool chest, there was my Cramp Buster. I didn't even remember taking it off of the Rocket before I sold it. Lol

    Throttle tension adjustment?

    The Rocket throttle is stiffer than any other bike I've owned (roughly 20 bikes). My guess is there's nothing wrong with your throttle.

    How many times can one say good-bye?

    I bought a T100 a couple of months ago. I love it. I put TORs, Thruxton seat and a fly screen on mine. Next up is a seat cowl then I'm done with it.

    Great t/v showing of triumph triple in race with zo6 vette

    Haven't seen it, but the bike guy could very well be Kevin Carmichael. He's a Triumph test/stunt rider and is a beast.
