    R3 Touring ran fine now it won't start

    First of all open the gas cap to make sure that there is no vacuum in the tank. Try to start the engine with gas cap opened. Second step is to remove this valve from its tube and try to start again. Regards, Georg

    R3 Touring ran fine now it won't start

    The roll over valve/breather valve is positioned appr. in the middle of one of the two hoses that lead from under the tank down behind the engine block. On the Roadster it is under the left side cover. With the touring it should be similar. Regards, Georg

    R3 Touring ran fine now it won't start

    I would check the roll over valve of the fuel tank. If it doesn't work correctly, it leads to a vacuum in the fuel tank and not enough fuel can be pressed to the injectors. Regards, Georg

    Sump plate gasket

    I apply a very thin layer of silicone sealant on the engine side so that the paper gasket sticks to it. The oil sump plate side remains dry. This keeps the seal attached to the engine and ensures that I can remove the oil sump plate several times without having to replace the gasket. Regards, Georg

    Oil warning light

    Are you sure that oil is on level? Oil check has to be done the bike standing upright, not standing on its sidestand. Regards, Georg

    Fuel Issue

    The vent tube has an vent valve, located/fixed under the left side cover. If this valve doesn´t work correctly, there will be a vacuum in the tank. I did have a similar problem years ago, have removed this valve and since than no more problem with it.... Regards, Georg

    TR3T differences

    Here, at us in Germany, they would ask at least 50% more for bikes likes these. Happy America, at least as far as this is concerned... Regards, Georg

    Radial brake caliper

    The conversion was not so easy, but it gave me pleasure because everything was perfect in the end. The Öhlins fork has the same length as the OEM fork. That for sure, was the reason why I choose this fork. Most USD forks of sports motorcycles are much shorter. I had to cut the wheel hubs by...

    Radial brake caliper

    I did it the other way. Took a Öhlins USD fork from a Ducati Hypermotard SP with 48mm diameter and 180mm suspension, replaced the OEM springs by stiffer springs. Fender is taken from a Suzuki M 1800, slightly modified. Works really great, but a lot of work... Regards, Georg
