  2. what can I expect???

    I love my R3T with D&Ds, TuneBoy, and Tripple Filter Mod. It's a WHOLE new ballgame with those mods. Runs soooo.... GOOD!

  4. Question: TOR'S or D&D's /W a PC111

    Do yourself a favor (if you want more HP), get a TuneBoy load the "20235TuneModSEC100_Mod_138hp_final" tune, do the Tripple filter mod that's outlined on this web site, and be done with it. I doubt you'll want more. The difference is incredible. If you already have the TOR's I'm sure you can...
  5. Loud Pipes!

    I love my D&D's, forget about sound clips as they are useless. D&D's have an nice throaty sound. Much louder than TORs. As a matter of fact I thought TORs were stock pipes on the demo I rode until the salesman told me they were TORs. D&D's are much cheaper than Jardines as well. You can get...
  6. Can not believe the new 2008 Turing Rocket

    It's really quite simple to SURPASS the horsepower AND Torque output of the standard (stock) Rocket III with the R3T: Forget about the drop in K&N, buy the 3 individual K&N filters and remove the HIGHLY restrictive intake plumbing. (Also forget about the Tuneboy foam filters unless you don't...
  7. D&D's for R3T

    Don't DO IT! Get the D&D's! Rocket III Touring | Triumph | Street | Custom Motorcycle Exhaust Systems - Buy Yoshimura Cobra DD Akrapovic Bub Aftermarket Exhaust Pipe Sy | Product Search | Pipe City I thought TORS were stock mufflers on the demo bike I rode.
  8. 60-80 top gear roll-on acceleration times

    Just got back from an East Texas ride with a bunch of friends and did several roll-ons against my buddy with an modified FJR1300. With his wife on the back he couldn't pull me (at least to 110) in any gear. The next day he wanted to ride my bike and I pulled him fairly well with just me on the...
  9. Maximum speed per gear before hitting rev limiter?

    Had it up to 110 again this weekend without the GF but realized I was in a 35MPH zone and figured I'd better shut it down (industrial area on a Sunday). It did wax my buddies '04 Fat Boy that's been bored to 95 inches with ported heads and some mild cams though. Calculations show that it'll...
  10. Maximum speed per gear before hitting rev limiter?

    Hit 110 in 3rd gear last Friday night, but had to back off because the GF started getting antsy. Limiter hadn't kick it and was pulling like a freight train. Will try again soon without GF. P.S. Cycle World test a new V-Max against the Rocket III Roadster in this months issue.
  11. Maximum speed per gear before hitting rev limiter?

    Rev Limiter kicks in at 85 in 2nd on an R3T with a raised limit of 6500 and a stock calibrated spedo. I'll have to try it in 3rd to see what that speed is. 4th and 5th will be "Speed Limiter" limited. (128mph indicated on a TuneBoy modified bike)
  12. D&D's for R3T

    TuneBoy +filters Hello, Adding a real tune with a TuneBoy in conjunction with Triple K&N filters will "Unleash" the bike. A TuneBoy will also open the secondary throttle plates 100% in all gears all RPM. If you're not into the power thing it might not be for you, as the bike WILL wheelie...
  13. New Pipes

    Torque A certain amount of back pressure is good for torque and a Rocket III with slipons, tuneboy and triple filters has plenty. I'm sure you'll get more high end HP with the Jardines, but on the R3T who cares? Nothing like short shifting first and shooting up to 85 in 2nd gear! The "empty"...
  14. New Pipes

    Got mine at Pipe City: $549 Ordered mine with out K&N filter and it came with a stock type anyway. Maybe the filter option is the 3 individuals? http://www.pipecity.com/Products/ProductDetails.cfm/Search/54112/ProductID/476723
  15. New Pipes

    The Demo I rode had TORs and I thought they were the stock pipes it was so quiet. I thought about Jardines, but decided against them. Went with the D&D and coulndn't be happier. Nice rumble, not too loud cruising, but a nice bark when you get on it. Not nearly as loud as my buddies Fat Boy with...
