    stealership rising costs of oil change

    People pay others to do what some consider a simple task for all sorts of valid reasons, anyone who struggles to understand this and gives you a hard time for paying needs to consider that other people have different experiences and circumstances than them (I know, shocking right?). If you're...

    Rmoving injectors to clean

    Give it a good dose of injector cleaner and an Italian tune, it's way more fun than pulling injectors and is mostly like going to fix the issue. That's my philosophy anyway.

    Evil Knievel Rocket 3 Edition

    I certainly want to (and am considering it), I think it looks fantastic. I know it is a lot of extra money for what is basically a fancy paint job, but I love it.

    Plastic “sub-loaf bread” part on my ‘22GT

    You can get brushed aluminum vinyl wrap, not sure how well it would match the rest of the brushed aluminum on the bike though.

    Plastic “sub-loaf bread” part on my ‘22GT

    Not sure about removing it, but you could find some who does vinyl wraps and get them to cover it. If that helps?

    Opinion wanted, course of action R3T running like a Harley!!!

    This, 100%. Take it out and give it hell for a few hours, a proper Italian tune. It is the funnest repair you will ever do. After that if the problem persists start to look into it more, you don't want to dig into a problem that may clear with a decent ride.

    Issues changing to 2nd gear

    In my limited experience so far the easiest way to diagnose the detent spring is to accelerate hard and then suddenly back off the accelerator. The bike will drop out of gear and into neutral regardless of the gear it is in when you do it.

    Starting issues

    I'm going to assume you have a bad connection at the battery which drops out under load since the issue started when you change the battery, if it is a problem not related to changing the battery that started when you changed the battery then you have a miracle on your hands. You can check for...

    Clutch not disengaging.

    Firstly, don't feel dumb. I done almost the exact same thing when I replaced my detent spring. I couldn't work out why the bike kept stalling when I released the clutch, it was driving me crazy and I was about to start stripping the bike again assuming I had done something wrong. Turns out I was...

    How many of you Trumper R3 owners had the dreaded BROKEN DETENT SPRING ISSUE & what yr. and milage or Kilometers, just taking a survey

    My detent spring broke at 48,000kms. But i have only owned the bike a couple of months, I can't be sure but there were no signs that the front of the engine had been opened up before so I'm guessing it was the first spring breakage for this bike. The bike lasted about another 1000kms more and...
