    Brake Pads

    Rear brake pads are the only "real" maintenance I've done myself, simply because it is so easy. Two tools - screw driver to remove the saddle bag and pliers to remove the clip for the pin holding the pads. I've been able to push the caliper inward against the disk using only my hands until the...

    Topbox / Trunk

    Take a look here - It's a Scootworks "Supertrunk" on a Wompus rack. Will hold 2 full face helmets with plenty of room to spare. Hiigh quality fiberglass and really strong - but the hardware (hinges and latches) is crap. I don't regret buying it, but next time I'll spend a few hundred extra...

    Darkside R3T - Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/60R16?

    That may be key - Touring. Can't imagine my pegs ever touching down. I'm probably the least aggressive rider you could meet, so my experience/observations are nothing on which to base a darkside decision. Slightly over a thousand miles now and it just seems to suit me. I believe that if I...

    Darkside R3T - Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/60R16?

    That's it. Will try to get a pic of it on the bike but it's barely noticeable with the Touring's low rear fender. Not one of the 4 riders who park with me at work noticed it.

    Darkside R3T - Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/60R16?

    Done - What's the big deal?? Took the bike in for 10k service and tire mount Saturday. Didn't get to pick it up til Thursday evening, thereby missing 5 great riding days. For those of you unfamiliar with the Baltimore area, it's an ugly ride from the dealership to my home, even when it's not...

    R3T accessories

    Hopefully, here's a few pics of the Corbin Fleetliner on my R3T. High quality fiberglass fairing. Paint color match was good but it began to slightly peel around the trim beneath the windshield in just a few weeks. Not very noticeable but should not have happened at all. I ordered it with...

    Darkside R3T - Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/60R16?

    Thanks rainman. I just read your previous post on the .com site about going ds and was hoping you would check in. My dealer did say he had mounted a few ct's - on Valkeries mostly. Hopefully all goes well. I'm certainly looking forward to it. Many thanks again.

    Darkside R3T - Yokohama Avid Envigor 205/60R16?

    For some time I've been on the fence, searching for anything related to the R3T and the darkside.This weekends riding has left me feeling unsafe on the current Metz. The tread is gone. No threads showing but they gotta be close. Can't wait any longer - need a tire NOW. I've selected the...

    speed limiter

    Funny you should ask - I have the Corbin fairing on my R3T. I've noticed when riding solo, at about 110mph (indicated) the bike starts to weave very slowly. I don't feel any motion/vibration in the bars and it never seems threatening. Just a little unnerving. Asked the service guy to check the...

    Fairing for touring model (r3t)

    Molinoman - the fairing could certainly do without that "rib" down the center. It doesn't seem to belong. GPMAZ - I'm 5'11" and sitting straight (like your mom tells you to), I do get a little wind at about eye level. But, it doesn't get bad til around 85-90 mph. I did opt for the 10" screen...

    The Corbin Fleetliner fairing WILL work with the Triumph OEM aux lights on the R3T. Pics in my profile.
