    Has anyone installed Utopia driver's backrest on R3T?

    Need a backrest. I watched the video on YouTube installing on another bike model. Has anyone here made the installation themselves? If so, was it a challenge? What are issues to watch for? Thanks, Dave.

    Check Engine Light On After Washing Bike

    The title of the thread says it all. Washed bike last night before putting it to bed inside the machine shed. Never had the light come on before and it is at 11,000 miles. It came on after washing the bike. I did not wash the bike any differently than before. I assume something got wet and...

    Final Drive Drain Plug stripped?

    I was doing the 10K oil change yesterday morning and while everything was off I thought i would drain the final drive oil and replace. I know it is a 20K change but it is not expensive, I have the oil and I wanted to spend time working on the bike so 'what the heck'. After draining the oil I...

    This question may sound like - "Are you kiddin' me, he's asking this? - but I am curious. Now that I have spent an a$$load of money on the R3T and have become spoiled riding it, I am going to sell the America. I have no need for 2 bikes at this point in my life. When any of you have had...

    Quarter Turn Studs on R3T panniers - Any Other Connection Options?

    My right side pannier comes off easy - the left side is another story. The center hole in the quarter turn receptacle is all boogered up. Taking the panniers off and putting back on repeatedly for cleaning/maintenance/etc, has caused the center hole to get wallowed out. I have a new part on...

    1st Service - 500 miles

    I checked but did not see any threads. This item is listed on the 500 mile check - Autoscan - carry out a full Autoscan using the Triumph Diagnostic tool. Sounds like it is using something similar to a OBD scanner for a car. Is this worth doing? Is this an actual proprietary Triumph tool...

    I just brought home a new 2015 Black & Cranberry R3T [it was a dealer leftover at a fire sale price - there is still one available]. It has 35 miles on it. I doubled the mileage on a short run tonight - had to stop to barbecue. I will need to watch my speed as - it is entirely too, too easy...

    Question Regarding Single Headlight on R3T

    Hello, On my Triumph America, I bought a base [from DanielSternLighting.com] designed to hold a 55W H13 bulb. The America came stock with a H4 bulb. The America has a 7" diam light and it appears the R3T has the same. I am going to switch lights as the first mod - a simple wiring harness...
