    winter handguards for 06

    I don't get to ride in snow nor would i due to the slip hazard,here in Tassie. Has anyone mentioned heated clothing? I would think that maintaining your core temp well, the peripheral areas of the body might not get so cold. Gotta say, heated bars and seat are very nice. 🇦🇺

    Weird gear selection problem - 2005 R3

    I used to drop my bike into neutral at the lights, then a bloke pointed out its better to sit there with the clutch in, but also having allowed some room in front of you so if someone is looking at rear ending you, you can quickly launch the bike to the front left or right of the car in front of...

    How many days until battery discharge when rocket3R is not in use

    Buy a battery tender and leave the bike hooked up to it when you're not using it. They come with a lead that you bolt to the battery terminals, leaving a tail hanging out the side of the seat or wherever. You plug easily into that.

    2023 R3GT saddlebags.

    Why not try to engineer the parts needed to fit whatever panniers you want? Maybe you could retain the original Triumph bracket on the bike and fabricate the matching parts that attach to the panniers 🇦🇺

    So what would be a list of things to do, for a bike that's been sitting for 7 years? I know it needs a new battery and fork seals. (Yamaha make seals that fit it, by the way). I guess drain and replace all fluids would be the first thing. Tyres might be buggered I guess 🤔🇦🇺

    I've had my 2005 R3 sitting for 7 years without starting, while I use my 2010R3. You've got me worried now! 🇦🇺
