    R3R Vibration Problem

    I wish I was on holiday in Italy!! Just didn't set my profile up correctly, I live in Des Moines Iowa, USA. We have a very reputable Triumph dealer about 1 hour away from me called Baxter Cycle, I'm going to contact them.

    R3R Vibration Problem

    I thought about that but I got a really good deal on it, $3700 less than a new one and it only had 495 miles on it, so it was pretty much new. I've put almost 900 miles on it so far and other than the vibes the bike feels like it was made just for me. Anyway I'm going to look around and find...

    R3R Vibration Problem

    After I rode the bike home today my daughter took me back to the dealer to get my truck. I went in an talked to the manager, who rides R3's all the time and he agreed the bike should not vibrate. Told me he would research the issue and do whatever it takes to make it right. We'll see. Either...

    I hear ya, on the drive over I knew what the answer was going to be, but I figured sugar is better than vinegar. Don't want to give myself a heart attack over this.

    R3R Vibration Problem

    Picked the bike up from the dealer today and the mechanic told me they all vibrate pretty hard and there's no fix. I guess I'll live with it or try to find someone that knows the issue and can fix it since I'm no mechanic. Thanks all for your responses.

    Thanks IMFASTTOO, I'll take a look at that, I can live with 80 percent of the vibes gone. Just heard back from my dealer, they say there's nothing wrong.

    R3R Vibration Problem

    The vibration doesn't go away until the clutch is pulled far enough that there is no free play, but the clutch does not engage. i've read on this forum and elsewhere that removing the free play will ruin the clutch. Have you seen this issue before? Thanks for the response Fingers.

    R3R Vibration Problem

    Hello All, new member and new R3R owner here. Picked up my 2015 R3R with 495 miles on the clock on 5-27-17. Rode for 300 miles over the Memorial Day weekend and found this thing buzzes really hard. The problem happens when accelerating and cruising in all gears and gets worse the faster the...
