    BC riders, Pacific Motorsports is getting rid of parts inventory

    Hey guys, I just dropped by Pacific Motorsports in Richmond, BC today and apparently they're moving to Langley soon and, since there is already International Motorsports carrying Triumph there, they're going to stop carrying Triumph. As a result - they're selling off their parts inventory, so...

    Chrome engine block?

    How is this look accomplished? Are there years/models that come with a chrome/grey engine block, or is this sandblasted, etc?

    Honda Valkyrie

    Ok, I'm going to say it. After dropping by a Honda dealership today (purely because it had free motorcycle parking) - Triumph really needs to spend some time on modernizing the Rocket III look and feel. The new Valkyrie is gorgeous - the side panel radiators alone had me drooling a bit at the...

    Rattling at 3K RPM?

    Went riding around town in my brain-bucket today (as opposed to the full-face Shoei) and noticed that there is a persistent audible rattle once I hit 3,000 RPM or so. Happens regardless of the gear and doesn't appear to be anything I can reach from the riding position. Parked, the engine is too...

    Touring highway pegs won't stay up?

    Has anybody who has the OEM touring highway pegs figure out how to fix an issue with them refusing to stay up? The way these are designed (which is clever but not made to last, imho) is by having the bolt thread inside the peg itself, so when you flip them up, the peg "tightens" on the...

    Oil tank embellisher?

    So, what does everyone's oil tank embellisher say? Mine's got "140 Cubic Inches" on it, but I live in Canada so nobody has any idea what that means. I kind of wish I could find one that says 2,300cc instead. What do you have on yours?

    Quick question - brake pads

    Hey guys, quick question - I know the user manual says the bike has to be upright to service the brakes, but I don't have any way to do that right now and I just need a quick 10 minute service on the callipers done. I just want to replace the pins (noticed during last pad change that there was...

    Front fender?

    The stock silver trim on the front fender is bugging me... anybody know a good aftermarket part without it?

    2300 cc Oil Tank Decal?

    Did anybody see an oil tank decal that has "2300cc" on it by any chance? I got the cubic inches one and most of the time Canadians just baulk at it until I explain. Thanks.

    Rear Break Caliper - What Gives?

    Erm, so, I replaced my rear brakes, with OEM Triumph calipers from a local dealer... and that went fine and all, but I realized that the pin that holds them in place (the one with two spring type cotter pins on it) got a bit of a worn spot on it, so I decided to get it replaced. Long story short...

    Hello from Vancouver, BC, Canada

    Hi guys, it's me - one of the only two guys that own a Triumph Rocket III in Vancouver, BC (judging by reactions I get from both riders and mechanics when talking about the bike I just recently upgraded to). I got my awesome new ride just a few months ago from a very nice gentleman, who used to...

    Universal radiator cap model?

    Hi guys. Is there a universal/aftermarket radiator cap that will work on a 2006 Triumph Rocket 3 (ie. Stant) that I can use to get the bike back on the road while I wait for the Triumph replacement to arrive? Thanks in advance.
