    Darkside- front/rear combo.

    Ive got some Hankook Ventus 225 50 R 16 tyre on the back at the moment, about to change it for a new one as have worn the sides out, treads still like new though. Mate looked at it and said "you should probably go back to a bike tyre by the looks of it" but I like the way its corners with the...

    Not an R3 question but looking for input re PCV and AT

    Thanks. Is this on your R3 or a track bike also? I found the difference (without putting the bike on a dyno) between the tune ECU and the PVC wit AT (with Hanso's map and assistance) made a massive difference to the R3 but I'm thinking not such a good idea when tuning for peak horsepower now?

    Not an R3 question but looking for input re PCV and AT

    Yes it made a world of difference on my R3 when fitted better in all ways, thinking its just losing its peak as its not running up there very much in reality. Probably 8% of the circuit is flat out in top. He ended up being much faster round the track but slower top speed. To my mind this is a win

    Not an R3 question but looking for input re PCV and AT

    My surrogate son has a GSXR600 track bike, hotted up with Yoshimura exhaust, cams and K&N. It also had a PCV fitted to it. The bike was lacking compared to others. On a thought (probably a bad one) I took the Auto tune off my R3 and fitted it up to his bike (there was a connection for it in...

    passenger holding on

    My wife rarely rides with me since I fell off a while back;), not complaining I like rolling round by myself. Before this though she could not get comfortable on the back of the R3 even though it was a massive improvement over the speed triple (and the old Bonnie come to think of it). The...

    Fan operation.

    I'll go with Warp9.9's comment here. The fan comes on at say 103C as its programmed to. But the computer will have a programmed "dead band" whats called a hysteresis. Say its 3 degC, the fan will turn off at 100C this is to stop the fan going "on/off...on/off", and ruining the electric fan...

    Anyone have the R3 just shut off while riding?

    Gday I had my bike seemingly randomly cut out when I got it. It was nearly new. Had been parked up for a few years so was out of warranty but only had 1000km (600miles on it). Called the guy I got it off and he'd had it back to the shop with same fault. They'd replaced the radiator and temp...

    WTF just happened at that light?!

    Yep probably wont be the last time. Got another ticket before this one, cop pulls me over. I said "I didn't even see you where were you". He said "You overtook me" He was in a row of cars I was blasting past, was a marked car too. Hard to argue that one, he said he was amazed I didn't see him.

    Floorboards for a 2015 R3R

    Hi Pekay I'm 6'4" too (but my feet aren't that big..;)) and tried the new R3R and really disliked the peg position, the std fits me very well, but the R3R was too far back and up to be comfortable, I was sad because was considering upgrading to get the ABS. The R3 is the only bike I've had...

    LED flasher Problem Rocket III Touring

    I fitted LED indicators and a load resistor prior to the relay slowed down the flashing but not enough to let me get a warrant of fitness I'm pretty sure. Think I might need to get a specific LED indicator relay?

    Mileage Poor

    Hi I'm going to try this app. My fuel light did come on at 160km, soince I fitted PCV and AT I expected better economy, now it comes on at 140km. I may have upset the level sensor in the petrol tank when I had it off I'm thinking, left the tank standing on end and cam run another 100km easy...

    WTF just happened at that light?!

    Hi Claviger I had a similar amusing incident with some low slung lotus sports car while I was on holiday had my saddle bags, pack and tent on the back. Pulled up at an overtaking lane that lead out of some roadworks, this thing suddenly winds itself on with two guys laughing at me, I added...
