    Heated Grips Install (part A9638304)

    I think I was blinded about my connections and I did not paid attention for Triumph part. So, I wasted time checking connectors that are “impossible” to be wrong connected and did not check the other connectors. When I was about to give up, I just could see the front connector w wires inverted...

    Heated Grips Install (part A9638304)

    After hours of work, I found the problem. Cables are inverted at the front connector. I did not replace the wiring, and the original was wrong. So, I inverted cables (positive and pulse) and now it is working!!!! I could never would imagine one factory mistake like that!!!!

    Problem w oem heated grips

    It does not make any sense. If you see the diagram you can see ground coming from battery. Positive comes from instrument panel. So, grips do not control anything. Button just send a signal to instrument panel to turn on/off or change temperature (voltage). The “intelligent” control is inside...

    Heated Grips Install (part A9638304)

    I disassembled everything today in order to double check it. Even considering the minimum chance of having the connectors reversed, I double checked it. On the left side we have a 3 pin connector and it was correctly connected. On the right side there is a two pin connector. And behind the...

    Heated Grips Install (part A9638304)

    It comes with instructions. It is very simple cause wiring is already there. So, you just have to remove the grips and connect the new ones. 15 min work. I would like to know if yours works ok. I installed mine and I am having a hard time. Basically, when I turn it on, it works, but I am not...

    Those who have more than one bike

    I have a R3R and a Thunderbird Storm. Frankly speaking, I like my Storm more, but both are amazing. For me, the best thing about having 2 bikes is maintenance. Now, I can fix one without pressure. My Storm is in my lift for more than one month and I am ok with it.

    Problem w oem heated grips

    Looking for suggestions. I installed a pair of Triumph genuine heated grips on my 2020 R3R. My problem is: they work at max power only and do not turn off. It is so straightforward, that I definitely have no idea what is wrong. I have that sigh at dashboard w heat symbol and 3 stripes, both are...

    Brake fluid replacement/flush

    There is no other way to bleed abs. These Triumph dealers think that everything is a rocket science.

    Brake fluid replacement/flush

    I am using DOT 5.1. It is better than DOT 4.0. We can never use DOT 5.0, cause it is a different base. But 5.1 is the regular evolution of DOT 4.0 Explaining: DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 are both glycol-based brake fluids. They are compatible each other and they can be mixed. So, DOT 5.1 is better cause...

    10k mile service - DIY (also, Spark Plugs Not Tight & Wire Boots Not Pushed On!)

    I did exactly the same w my 2020 R3R... My thoughts: - That side kill switch that comes w American R3 makes the work much harder... Technically we are not supposed to use pliers for the fuel quick connector. With that switch, we have no room for finger or a plier and it requires patience... - I...

    OEM Heated grips on 2020 R

    If I install original heated grips (a9638304) in my 2020 R model that did not come with it, do I have to go to a Dealer and “register” it w the Triumph dealer tool, or it is plug and play? I think dealer will charge me more than it costs…
