    Damaged crankcase with pictures -- FIXED

    While searching whether the Rivco center stand would work on a R3T, I came across this: . Could this be adapted to work as a center stand by adding a spring to keep it up, and adding something to push with the foot to get the bike up on it? What does the collective mind think?

    What is an all-welder? The studs/inserts/nuts makes sense.

    Damaged crankcase with pictures -- FIXED

    While transporting my R3T in a moving truck, the kickstand was left down without my knowledge when it was strapped in. At the first stop, I checked to make sure the straps were still tight and discovered the kickstand was down. I reset the straps with the stand up. However, when it came out of...

    Exedra Max radials on a Touring?

    I am running the Exedra Max on my R3T after using the Avon Cobras. I am running 40 psi front and 42 psi rear. I think they grip better than the Cobras. I got 14,681 miles on the Cobras. So far have 5,375 miles on the Exedras and they are wearing well. Will see how far they go.

    Hard to find N

    I leave my bike in gear when parked. At lights, especially if the light is long and a car is already stopped behind me, I will go into neutral to give my hand/arm a rest.

    Thanks for that list @Jag! I have gotten a used Samsung Galaxy Tab 3, 8 inch. Have installed TuneECU and downloaded the Nels tune for the TORS, Ram Air intake, and @Paul Bryant cross over. Just now need to get everything installed.

    Need sidedstand bracket and spring for 2014 R3T

    Thanks @Fingers for pointing me to | Pinwall Cycle Parts, Inc | Your one stop, motorcycle shop for used parts, service, accessories, & apparel. They had the bracket and it is on its way. The only way they and other yards will sell the spring is if it comes with the sidestand leg itself. I would...

    Thoughts on R3 riders and the $&@! Detent Spring

    Thanks again Dan!

    Hard to find N

    In addition to the previous posters, I have found that rolling the bike forward a little, once you have stopped, makes finding neutral a lot easier. My previous bike was a 2009, 1700 Nomad. Kawasaki's neutral finder technology spoiled me in finding neutral when I wanted to.

    Thoughts on R3 riders and the $&@! Detent Spring

    Thanks Dan! Great write up! Very clear. Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures while you worked on the bike in the middle of your trip. That shows great patience and consideration. Could you post a link to the cheat sheet to which you referred? Also, is the detent spring kit to which...

    Need sidedstand bracket and spring for 2014 R3T

    Thanks for the lead. Called and they only had two Triumphs in the yard, neither Rockets. They suggested Grim Cycle Salvage. Left them a message and email. Keep the suggestions coming!

    Need sidedstand bracket and spring for 2014 R3T

    Moved from FL to UT. During the move the sidestand bracket broke and the spring is missing. The bike will not start and I suspect it is because the sidestand switch is in the wrong position, due to the broken bracket, to be able to tell when the sidestand is up. In talking to the local Triumph...
