  1. Tune ECU Version question

    About 3 or so years ago the GREAT POWERTRIPP sent me a disc with a version of TuneECU to load on my laptop as he was kind enough to help me download a revised tune to my 08 R3T. Seemed to work OK. That version is identified as 1.7.7 and there seems to have been a lot of updates since that...
  2. Is this the 'New Ramair" filter?

    I spent a couple of hours reading the blog from this time last year regarding the Ramair filter self destruction and the aftermath that included Ramair's response. Near the end of the blog it spotted a post about a "redesigned" Ramair filter that is supposed to eliminate the breaking issues. I...
  3. I'm baa'aak!

    Greetings. This isn't so much an "introduce yourself" as it is a return after a long hiatus. I've been too busy for a while and unable to keep up. But looking forward to reconnecting with the best source of information for my Rocket. I'm still on my 2008 Rocket III Touring (full dress). Nice to...
  4. A new addition to the R3T family

    Triumph is releasing a complete turn-key Rocket lll Touring TRIKE! My dealer has the very first one! If you love the Rocket, but the weight is getting a little unmanageable, this is the ticket for you! Imagine a BUILT motor R3 leaving TWO thick black stripes on the ground leaving the stoplight!
  5. Adjustable Levers for R3T

    I would like adjustable levers on my R3T. Has anyone found a manufacturer that's making them? There's these idiots on EBAY from China claiming that their adjustable levers fit, but they're full of crap! They openly admitted to me that they haven't tried to fit them on a R3T, but promote it as if...
  6. TuneEcu Connection Problem

    I tried to connect to uneEcu. Plugged cable into bike, blue light comes on, connect USB into laptop and get the "dadonk" sound. TuneEcu is already on screen, turn ignition switch on. Now heres the problem. I don't get the lower right hand corner to show I've linked to the program, never get the...
  7. Confused about reset adaptation

    I have version 1.7.7 and on the TuneEcu website it says: (I have a 2008 R3T) Reset Adaption, prior to version 1.9.6, Reset TPS (Keihin ECU only), Triumph only These option are not applicable for the Sagem models. Process will be launched in the test window (Reset Adaption). <Menu> ECU---...
  8. R3T Owners using PowerTripp's tune

    Hey guys, this question goes out to those using the specially formulated tune for our R3T developed by Wayne Tripp (PowerTripp). Does it make any difference in what type of air filter system being used. I currently have a K&N drop in. Does the new RamAir system work well with this tune. I also...
  9. Question For those using RamAir triple filter

    This goes out to the guys using the RamAir triple airfilter kit on their Rockets. I've heard mixed responses about different filter kits that eliminate the use of the factory airbox. Was it worth the $180? Did you notice a big increase in noise coming from the intakes and valve train? How well...
  10. Anybody wish their R3T had more braking? PART 2

    Here are some shots of my 2008 R3T with 6 piston Hayabusa calipers. Some may have a more expensive or exotic 6 pot setup. I just really enjoy using my mechanical design background to make one-off parts for my Rocket. This complete setup ran me about 40% the cost of buying some off the shelf...
  11. Tall Clearview windshield w/Vent for sale

    Hey out there, is anybody interested in a tall Clearview windshield with vent for an R3T. I bought it prior to going on a long vacation ride a couple of years ago. I used it for about 1 1/2 to 2 months as I was waiting on my fairing when I got it. It's in great shape and works especially well...
  12. What's the deal with Lush Racing

    Hey all, I've tried to email Lush racing to get info about cams. The email's are sent back as "undeliverable". Did he retire or not doing business internationally? There is nothing on his website regarding Rocket 3's, it's all about Kawi triples. So how does one get ahold of him short of calling...
  13. Anybody wish their R3T had more braking?

    Hey out there in R3TLand, do you ever wish your ride had more brakes up front? Consider that Triumph uses this same caliper on other models that weigh HUNDREDS of pounds less than our R3T's? I took a look and decided I wanted more. So I did some CAD layout work and designed some nifty little...
  14. U[dated opinion on Shocks

    I'm still on the fence about shocks. I'm considering Ricor. Anybody out there in Rocketville have these? I'm unhappy with the B.S. that Progressive says about the 444 and the other models only get a lukewarm endorsement. Hagon Nitros get good reply, any other brands in use good or bad input...
  15. Differences in Brake line routing

    Hey out there in Rocket land. Any hydraulics experts out there? (I only got a C in Engineering Hydraulics:( ) I have a question. I've seen 3 different ways that manufacturers route front brake lines. 1) 1 line from master cyl. to "Y" branch and then two lines to the calipers. 2) 1 line from...
  16. Front Master cylinder for R3T

    Hey out there, does anybody know the bore size of the front master cylinder on a 2008 R3T. I was hoping somebody could answer this without me having to unbolt mine to check. It must be something like 17 to 19 mm? Maybe somebody noticed when changing riser or other work.
  17. Brake Pad choices

    Hey everybody, a question for you: For many years my brake pad of choice for all my bikes has been EBC HH pads. They seem to work really well. I was wanting to get some input on what others are using and their opinions about what they have used. I'm working on a special brake modification and...
  18. A General Question About our Rocket 3's

    Hey all, this question goes out to all R3 owners, regardless of which version you have. I'm concerned that EVERYONE has had issues with their bike. Some only minor, some HORRIBLE! Listed failuires that I've read about include: Clutch, transmission, TPS, ignition switch, differential, brake, cam...
  19. Any header upgrades for r3t?

    I'm at 17K miles and will soon go in for my first valve adjustment. I was considering removing the head and having my friend port, mill and maybe even big valve the head. If I do this, I'll be in need of a better flowing header. I have good flowing D&D's that are loud enough. I have been told...
  20. Hello from northern California

    Hi everybody, my name is Dan (ROCKETOUR). Just managed to get signed up today. For the longest time I couldn't, because this site wouldn't permit Hotmail email service. So, after some time, somebody changed that and now here I am. Looking forward to getting good info and maybe even sharing some...
