    For Sale 2014 R3T Parts

    I have already been considering this. I might have to give it a go. The one I have is large; the person who owned her before me seems to have been a big fella; added risers to the handlebar and a larger windscreen. I'm just over 6' and I'm more of long body and short legs, but the windscreen is...

    For Sale 2014 R3T Parts

    Do you have a windscreen? If so, can you measure height and then send me a few pics? Mine has an aftermarket that's too tall for me.

    hard to start when range is ~30 miles or less

    if you like twisties and less traffic I would suggest making your way over to Arkansas. The state is full of great rides in the Ozark mountains and most are very good roads. Push Mountain Road is pretty well known as is The Pig Trail, Talimina Drive, and Eureka Springs area. In September one of...

    I am missing a part and not sure what to order; anyone know what I need to get and where?

    I have a 2015 R3 Touring and recently took off the windscreen for some around town riding. The windscreen is quick release and there are four little round things the screen attaches to (pictured) and one of those vibrated off. I need the round thingy and the bolt securing it. I called a local...

    HELP!!!!! Oil leaking from bottom pan?

    I am not remotely mechanically savy. My new-to-me 2015 Rocket 3 Touring just started leaking today. I rode it for probably 300 miles Sunday, no leaks. Then today I rode about 35 miles and parked it. When I went back out to the garage there was something underneath it. At the time I thought it...

    What is the best way to cleanly install a USB power cord on a 2015 Rocket 3 Touring?

    In other posts it looks like @maurice knows all. Would you mind weighing in for me? Thanks!

    What is the best way to cleanly install a USB power cord on a 2015 Rocket 3 Touring?

    I have seen comments on another thread that indicates the Touring might already have plug, I don't know where that is at? I'm guessing near the fuse box but unsure. Also, how do I get it cleanly routed to the handlebars without duct taping it to the side of the tank? It looks like one of the...

    I just got a 2015 RT3 and I need to install a power cord. Where is the plug that you're referring to? Do you have any decent links for cleanest way to install the USB and get it up to the handle bars? Thanks!

    Best available touring seat w/backrest, and best value for adaptive headlight pack (all 3 lights)?

    Guys, I'm now a few months into owning my 2015 R3T here in the desert of PHX and would like to get her long haul ready before the good riding weather shows up. SEAT: I would like a backrest and am trying to figure out the best available seat option as the Triumph Long Haul seat seems to no...

    Finally bought a Rocket. She's still at the dealership but I'll fly up and get her soon!

    That was one thing I noticed. The place where it did the most good preventing my hand going to sleep was if I had it high enough that my palm was flat at speed. But that means when I let off the throttle there’s no where for it to turn so bike can’t idle down.

    Why do you think it is an accident waiting to happen? So far I’ve only used it on highway.

    Finally bought a Rocket. She's still at the dealership but I'll fly up and get her soon!

    I've picked up my beautiful girl and am driving her back to Phoenix. The weather has been **** so far. Rain from Spokane to Grangerville day 1 (took a while to get out of Spokane) and cold and rainy from Grangerville to Twin Falls today. The weather changed my route but now the desert is not so...

    I went with your solution. Had the BrakeAway shipped to Empire Cycle (the dealer). Picked the Rocket up yesterday in Spokane (in gawd awful rain) and they already had the Throttle lock installed. I brought the flip thingy and added it. I only made it Grangerville last night then Twin Falls...

    What is the best bang for buck on adaptive headlights for a 2015 R3 Touring?

    I've seen several people say great things about the JW Speakers but it sounds like there are inexpensive versions available as well. Has anybody had success with knockoffs? If so, which brand/model?
