    Well it's done, couldn't find the small hook broken end, hopefully it comes out with an oil change. Forgot to bend up outer ring/lock on original nut, guess that's why they tell you to replace and I did. Needed an impact gun to get old nut off but everything else went fairly smoothly but be...

    Hi fellow R3 owners I have a 2008 R3T with just over 49,000 miles on her, pretty sure spring is broken, having shifting issues, problem finding all gears, going to tear it apart soon as I get a chance, but almost positive that's the issue, clutch adjustment spot on. Hopefully I...

    Final drve drain bolt

    I wouldn't take any 100+ MPH turns whoopty-doos too soon, take it up on a long straight and be ready in case the magnet doesn't get crushed up or anything else that's left behind to lodge in there and lock up the back wheel and ruin your day, but I wouldn't spring the $ for a new one either, If...

    Ignition problem- Rocket III (2004)

    I think everyone is assuming it's an ignition problem but it's an electrical problem. If you have a horn and headlights the ignition switch is working try to start with the kickstand up and if you have nothing on the instrument panel I would actually start diagnostics there and see why you have...

    Final drve drain bolt

    You could get the magnet out with another magnet but the other pieces I imagine are steel you can try to get as much with the magnet and use some motor flush liquid and pump it through to get all the pieces and blow with air and install a new magnetic plug and use an easy out to take the rest of...

    Can you blow carburetor cleaner through the injectors

    Seemed to run a little smoother and better, but it didn't work like I thought it would and can't explain why, I saw it done to a car on YouTube and the guy ran the motor till the can was empty, I had it all set up, plugged the fuel line so it would detect fuel pressure, tied the clutch lever and...

    Blowing in the wind - the need for a revised kickstand

    I would guess if you're triumph dealership will install it, it must be okay I guess, I would think. All I know when I bought the used bike had a Metzler bias on the front and Bridgestone radial on the back, thought that was weird, I always heard you shouldn't mix tire's, especially...

    Blowing in the wind - the need for a revised kickstand

    Just stating what they told me, " they do not sell a tire for the rocket,", if in question I would call, I was told, he didn't say particular year's, but I would check being if it did have a failure you have a good chance of not being able to talk about it. But if you say you know it is written...
