    Welcome, there are quite a few tail-tidy solutions available - not done it myself as I'm not 100% about the amount of spray you'd get in the rain. Living in the UK, it's a BIG consideration. With the standard numberplate holder and the luggage fitted, my wife hardly gets any spray in the rain ...

    2025 Rocket 3 GT Touring Windshield

    I implemented a simpler and cheaper solution on my GT. I made two brackets that raised the standard "flyscreen" to a more upright position like the Tigers all have, so that the screen is at the same angle as the forks. I made the brackets out of 2mm sheet aluminium so it was easy to work with...

    R3GT TuneECU Connection

    I checked out the cruise control, and it works fine - I hadn't reset the adaptations, so no problem 👍 Once again, thank you for your help and advice on this one - it proved invaluable 👍😎

    R3GT TuneECU Connection

    Thank you for this, all done now. I've registered my GT, reset the service interval, and while I was at it I uploaded Ulf Penner's map. I always disliked the snatchy nature of sport mode, I guess now that that was as a result of Triumph trying to de-tune things. The Penner map seems to have...

    R3GT TuneECU Connection

    I have used Tune ECU successfully on my 2017 Roadster for quite a while now. I have a valid license with two bikes still available to register. As my R3 GT is now out of warantee, I've serviced it myself, and want to reset the service indicator. Using the same OBD11 cable and the TuneECU app on...

    Hayabusa to Rocket 3 GT

    Greetings, the most important thing to watch out for is the Premagrin. It can cause facial disfigurement, I know that in my case it can take hours of cider therapy to relax my facial muscles after a long ride - otherwise I end up looking like Jack Nicholson in the Joker ! 🤣

    Madstad windscreen 2020-2024 R3GT

    I've seen so many different types of screen, none of which appealed to me at all. If you look closely at all of the Tiger range, the screens are in-line with the angle of the front forks. This punches a hole in the air big enough to ride comfortably behind without having to have a large or...

    How much do you pay for insurance for 2500cc?

    I have a multi-bike policy for two Rockets, a 2017 Roadster and a 2022 R3 GT - £153 per year for both, with 53 years no-claims and an Advanced Rider qualification 🤣🤣🤣

    Question re the new 'Storm' models....

    My '22 GT had 2000 miles on it when I bought it last August, complete with spongy rear brake. I had the 2 recalls done (new rear master cylinder and fuse upgrade) and now rear brake is fine. A friend of mine has just bought a new Storm GT, and not happy with the rear brake asked my to have a...

    Ignition Switch?

    I had the same problem, and relocated the ignition switch to the L/H side frame infill panel. The old ignition switch still functions as a steering lock. There are people who will make up a plug-in conversion. One such supplier is in the UK, and will post it out to you,... Just Rockets
