    Solo seat with rack in place of the pillion.

    @Jagster Is this yours ?

    Move the footpegs on the R further back ?

    Yeah. Even 4-6 inch would be great.

    Move the footpegs on the R further back ?

    Hi all, I have ridden my 3R for just over 12,000 Kms and what I've realised it that the most comfortable position for me on long rides is to sit all the way back in the seat and put the balls of my feet on the pegs to put some weight on my footpegs and handlebars. With the wind hitting my chest...

    Hilarious Yammie Noob

    Hey Jagster, Rocket is my first bike which I bought at the age of 25. Thanks for the last line, I felt a bit weird when he said it's a bike for "mid-life crisis". Either I hit my mid-life pretty soon or I'm just crazy. Just like you, I bought the just for the fun of riding it. Not for any...

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    I test rode a speed twin 1200 yesterday. It's an animal. The shove is instantaneous and more aggressive than the rocket. It's quite lighter and has that 2 cylinder torque. Quite a violent motorcycle. Get a test ride and you'll see what I'm talking about.

    Vinyl Wrap?

    Hey, they didn't wrap the centre metal strip. They removed the center metal strip and then put the PPF. I have the exact same color and I got PPF too. In my case they put it in two parts on the tank and the joined them in the middle and then put the metal strip on top so that dust doesn't go in...

    Designing a new rear fender - winter project

    Thanks for the reply. Water going inside won't cause any damage ? So there's no wiring underneath and is there a partition that keeps water from reaching the area where battery ?

    Designing a new rear fender - winter project

    Hi, this has inspired me to create a similar rack for my R as well. Thanks a lot. I'm quite late to this thread, but I want to ask what did you do about the space underneath the rack. After removing the infills, looks like there is a wide gap. Did you put something there to keep water out for...

    Alternate to saddle bags with better storage capacity and no fixed mount hardware

    I have the 72 ltr version of this bag. See here: Thoughts on this new way of adding storage? the front straps attach to the pillion footpegs. Since I don't have the sissybar attached, I routed the rear strap under the seat and across the rod under the seat that locks it in place. I did a 1000km...

    Genuine Triumph Tail Bag - FAIL In my case.

    Hi, I'm trying to make something similar for attaching a top box and a sissy bar. Is it possible for you to share more photos of the rack you've built ?

    Thoughts on this new way of adding storage?

    I used a similar bag for a 1000 km round trip. And it was a big bag. Total 72 ltrs. I have the R so it doesn't have the sissy bar. I tied the bags using the straps that it comes with. The front straps were tied to the footpegs and the rear strap was looped under the pillion seat. And it worked...

    Custom Bags

    Looks extremely well done. I have a few questions 1. Did you cut those holes in the plastic under the seat or bought that part from triumph accessories ? 2. Can you share the dimensions of the mounts you used ?

    Rocket 3 GT as an Iron Butt Machine

    Well done, sir. And the top box setup looks great. How easy/difficult is it to put on ? can you share some pics of the rack ?
