    It’s a sad realization Sale of R3R

    Unless you are set on selling your R3R, you might want to investigate the Leg Up Landing Gear by Chopper Design. They are located in Longwood, FL. You might give them a call to find out if they might be able to fit the system to your bike. If I ever get to the point you are, I will be...

    TuneECU -- HOW TO

    I have a 2014 R3T and am also in Florida. In addition to what @Steel is suggesting, you might try Engines Ice coolant. I have used it in my previous bikes and the R3T and found it to be effective.

    TPMS Installed and I like it.

    I am running Exedra Max radials on my R3T with 40 psi in the front and 42 psi in the rear. Once the tires warm up, the pressure can get to 45 psi in the front and 51 psi in the rear.

    Hello all, from new R3T owner in UK.

    Welcome from Florida. He knows whereof he speaks, having ridden with him while on my 2014 R3T. :eek::roll: I have not ridden a B-King, but I imagine the R3T will be more comfortable for touring and have more than enough get-up-and-go for when you want to whip it. I have had mine for a...

    TPMS Installed and I like it.

    @Starmanut I got the screw on T-valve stems and put them on. They work like a charm. These were a great find. They make it much easier to add/remove air to/from the tires. I have been using an Accugage with extension hose for the rear and just the Accugage for the front. There was a 1.5-2 lb...

    Crashed bike

    In addition to ATGATT (which I do) the thought I am taking away is to remain vigilant when riding on familiar roads. I know that when riding on familiar roads I can tend to pay less attention since they are so familiar. I do not think, from what you have described, that this would have made a...

    Where/How to purchase a Fuelbot

    I had contact with him on March 4, 2019 and he said he has not had time to make any and did not know when he would be making some. I told him I was still interested in one when he does make another batch.

    Utopia backrest for R3T

    I have one on my R3T. Like you said, pretty straight forward. Had a pneumatic stapler from Harbor Freight. Worked well getting everything back together.

    TPMS Installed and I like it.

    I have the Garmin Zumo 395LM and the tire pressure sensors. This has been a good combination for me. I like the idea of the T-valve stem set up. Would not have to take the sensor off to add air. Does the higher pressure of the air hose affect the sensor? Do they have much effect on balance?

    Rocket III as a first bike?

    I am 5’ 10” y’all and about 190 lbs. my first bike was a 2007 Suzuki C50, an 800 cc cruiser that I bought new. I, too, did not have the money to start small and work my way up. Looking back, that was a mistake. I dropped it many times and had a get off which ended in cracked ribs. I survived all...

    Anyone know how to lift the tank?

    When I lift the tank of my R3T, I take out the 3 bolts which hold the console on (5 mm hex head), move the console to the right or left and unscrew the visible bolt. I replaced the torx head bolts with 5 mm hex head bolts. Move the console to the other side and remove the other bolt. I leave the...

    Headlight for 2009 Touring

    I am running the VisionX 7" headlight as the main headlight and the 5.75" VisionX headlights as driving lights. They all have cool halo lights around the edges. I also got the P-HLHI4 which lets the low beam stay on along with the high beam. They put out a good amount of light. I am also using...

    Did you happen to see any of the African herd animals along 315 after Orange Springs?

    Florida Riders, I promise to show you a good time

    Too bad about the camera mount. That would have been a good perspective to have viewed the ride.
