  4. OIL

    I remember on one of my trips to and from Phillip Island for the bike races, we stopped at a small garage for petrol and a bite to eat. One of my mates wanted to get some oil, and where we were sitting in the cafe there was a big sign on the wall advertising "Vernalis Oil". The girl serving...

  6. R3 Life Span

    Like JohnC, had the same clutch problem at 5,000kms with my R3T, 10 weeks to get the parts. My Valkyrie has 120,000kms and has never let me down. Still, I am off to Phillip Island for the GP in October, on the R3T, and back home via the Great Ocean Road, Murray Bend, Swan Reach, Renmark, then...

  8. Progressive 440's for Rocket 3 Touring

    Thanks for the info Pegasus, I did not want to get the incorrect length. This riding position at 12.5" is just right for me. Had to get the 412's for the valkyrie, they are a great shock... Thanks...
  9. Progressive 440's for Rocket 3 Touring

    I am looking at getting a pair of Progressive 440's for the R3T. Does anyone know the matching length, the sizes are 11.4", 12", 12.5" and 13". I thought the 12.5" would be the match, am I right? Thanks...

  11. Rivco Risers for R3T - found a longer clutch cable

    The cable arrived... OK the cable arrived and it looks great and the length perfect. I got started on the cable changeover when to my horror found that the tech that last worked on my clutch put it all back together without any backlash tension on the lifter arm. So I had to pull the bloody...

  13. Rivco Risers for R3T - found a longer clutch cable

    As far as I am concerned the only way to route the clutch cable on the R3T after installing the Rivco Risers is the standard method, in front of the headstock not behind. Routing the cable the correct way will avoid cable damage and pinching. For this reason I have sourced a longer cable. The...
  14. Tune boy questions. Help needed

    Tuneboy is the way to go... It won't be one use, try doing something electrical on the bike and then have the bloody ECU error light on. Without a Tuneboy you will have to drive to a dealer to reset the error. Mine has saved me plenty of petrol in that regard.
  15. R3T Clutch Rattle Noise

    Got the R3T back after two weeks. They pulled it down and inspected the clutch and could not find any problem at all. Put it all back together and bunged it on the dyno to check it out. Called me on the phone and said the bike is all ok. No clutch problem could be found. So I picked her up...
