    First test ride with new tires.

    @TriumPhil Ended up cancelling the scorcher 11 and going with the commander II. I had one up front on my Yammy before and really liked the tire. I got a bit spooked with the smaller tire but clearly you guys all use them and have much more experience with tire selection than I do. Excited to...

    First test ride with new tires.

    Thanks for the explanation! Makes enough sense to me and that is what I sort of figured but it sounds like a lot of guys on here use the 140. Anyone ever have any issues under heavy breaking with the smaller front tire? I never ride with luggage and I took my passenger seat off, so I just ride...

    First test ride with new tires.

    Just bought an EMAX and the Scorcher 11s. My only question is on all these sites they claim this tire does not "fit" the R3R. The load rating is Load Rating: 67 - Maximum Capacity 677 lbs (got this off Michelin Scorcher 11 140/75R17 Front Tire | 213-084) Maybe this is my ignorance, but how is...

    First test ride with new tires.

    Michelin Scorcher 11 140/75R17 Front Tire | 213-084 This looks to be the same tire. On revzilla you just have to drop down to that specific tire. Wanted to make sure it was the 11s not the 31 or 32 like you mentioned.

    First test ride with new tires.

    I am sitting at my computer about to buy tires for both my R3R and my STR. Is the front tire you talking about this tire? Michelin Scorcher 11 Tires 140/75R 67V. I am running stock tires right now and I have read a million threads about tire selection. Going with EMAX rear and now after...

    Anyone have the R3 just shut off while riding?

    Have about 6K on my 2016 and it still happens to me on occasion. Happened twice yesterday actually for the first time in probably 1k miles. Always on the down shift, I think it is an air/fuel issue with ECU and it tricks the bike into thinking basically a stall. It is definitely electronic, I'm...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Glad to hear you guys are back in the saddle. Hopefully it will stay that way haha! I can definitely say it is shifting much much smoother. 1st > 2nd still has a little more oomf to it which isn't surprising but the rest is like butter. I'm ripping through the gears with out any hiccups :cool:

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Just got the R3 back yesterday. The oil that was leaking all over the side of the engine was from when they were servicing the engine. I guess they had the engine tipped and some oil leaked on the top and caked on, and when the bike warmed up after some riding, it started to leak down. They...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    @jpool I have never had issues with first gear. When I bought the bike, I had issues from 3rd to 4th, but chalked it up with non positive shifting. Then the 4th to 5th became extremely reproducible and figured it wasnt good. I only have 3.5K miles on it now so I can only assume this was from the...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Wow and I thoughit it was just me who had bad luck. This does seem like a pretty expensive issue to not keep an eye on. Out of warranty they said like 3.4K for the service to be done. And with all the problems I've had so far I am really worried when it expires. So here's the story. I picked...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Well, finally got some information. Per tech, they are changing all shifter forks out. Not sure if they were all bad or if only one was bad and they decided to just swap them all to be certain. Still waiting on time frame. They said by next week? Will be almost a month at that point...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Went to the dealer yesterday. Looks like they got permission from Triumph to crack the engine open and start poking around. Said eta possibly 1 week, but I have a feeling it is going to be longer.... They were very nice about a loaner though. They let me pick pretty much whatever I wanted so I...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    God that sounds awful haha. I just called the dealer and they said they are about to check it out shortly. Will post back if they find anything. Again, thanks for all the help everyone.

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    Ah, I see. Yeah I have had it where I shift up and leave my boot up and it will bounce around until it clicks into place. I just dropped it off at the dealer and I guess they will get to it on Tuesday due to the holiday. I do need to get a lift of some sort for the bike, I have a jack that I...

    Shifting issue from 4th to 5th

    I've had it from 3rd to 4th as well. The 4th to 5th is almost always reproducible. The odd part is I tried clutchless shifting at around 3K RPMs and it seems to slide right in. So possibly a clutch issue? I adjusted clutch and shifter to see if it wasn't setting in right but that didn't seem to...
