    Un-introduction

    With regrets, i sold my r3t and got a 2013 t100. In 12 mo time, i started with a tbird, found it lacking and i preferred a non cruiser. But i always wanted a r3. The touring was available and i thought "this is my chance." It had a problem of missing, but thanks to this forum, i replaced the...

    Tors mods

    Has anyone ever modified their tors mufflers? Is it possible to remove baffles? Change tune? And are there cross over pipes for the touring? I cant find them on platt or viking. Thanks and i await to receive all the wisdom that is forthcoming.😇

    R3t ecu transplant?

    So it seems like theres a limit to how far a touring models hp can be increased. Assuming the ecu is different from the higher hp models, can one simply swap out for another ecu? What i want is all the hp and torque that was available on the other models (r and gt?). Has anyone done it.?

    ? For r3t owners

    08 r3t. Tors. O2 delete. Ramair. For those running similar, what are your fuel trim settings? Mine were all zeros and i set them to all 3s. I saw this on utube. It was monkey see monkey do. I dont understand it but i can make the changes. Which is not a good combination. Im considering setting...

    Transmission "clunk".

    Ive noticed ever since i got my r3t the trans has some loud shifts especially 1st to 2nd. If i make that shift quickly at low rpm or wind it out alot, its quieter. Are these transmissions normally like this? It does have 33000 miles on it. It occasionally pops out of first into neutral when...

    Secondaries..what the consensus?

    There seems to be 2 camps on the subject of open secondaries. Im currently running 100% open but havent been too impressed. (Tors, ramair) . im going to enter stock settings back and compare is my solution. But it seems theres factions that feel equaly strong about each alternative.

    Reverting secondaries

    i programmed my secondary butterflies to stay open a while back. i feel like i dont have the response i used to have so i want them back to normal. what is the easiest way to put em back. the table with percentages looks too confusing. im running 20368. (2008 r3t) do i just re install the tune?

    Open secondaries....not impressed

    I set my secondaries to wide open a while back, and either i feel no diff or even a little slow in the low end. Ive heard talk about fuel ratios but have no idea how to proceed. Bike runs pretty good tho, just not that fast on the low end acce.

    Cancelling the self-cancelling?

    How can i change my self cancelling turn signal to non self cancelling? My 83 gs1100 had em (and gear indicator). They dont stay on long enough. I find myself making a turn and noticing they stopped blinking so i hastily re activate. People not signalling a turn really bugs me and where i live...

    Brakes

    This morning i changed out my brakes pads front and rear in less than an hour. Good thing i didnt follow the service manual. I guess most of you already know how but heres how it went easy for me. On the front, the book said remove the cotter pin and pull the pin. I found it easier to unbolt the...

    Ugly forks

    My r3t with 30000 mi came with some rough looking lower legs. Im wondering what to do short of replacing. I can live with it for now. Im leaning towards using finer, and finer wet sanding. Im open to ideas tho.

    Gas mileage

    I just ran a couple of tank fulls after installing the ramair. I noticed the gage dropping alot faster. So i filled and refilled to calculate. 27.75 mpg. Its a touring model. Im pretty sure it was somewhere in the 30mpg range b4. This is mostly hwy. 25 mi each way. So i thought WTF! I expected...

    Throttle lock?

    Took the r3t out today and noticed the throttle seemed to be sticky. At first i thought my son had screwed it up. He tends to break things he uses. Upon closer inspection, i found that the throttle end twists to increase friction. Not quit cruise, because i cant see how youd set it while...

    valve clearances

    so is there a kit with an assortment of shims available when its time to check clearances. i have a 31000 mile r3t that i have no history on. i found a previous owners registration receipt tucked away in the panniers and thought it reach out to get any info, which could be awkward.

    oiling ramair filters?

    I just finished installing the ramair and got caught in the rain (i hadnt put the bearclaw back yet). it made me think, shouldnt we apply some oil like the uni filters use? Its not brought up in the instructions and i havent heard it mentioned here. Dont see how it would hurt and should help...

    stock air box mod.

    anyone think it might be worth tying, to remove the ducting under the seat to eliminat some intake restriction? or has anyone done it? i have a carbed gs 1100 that when i added pipes was told by vance and hines to remove the airbox cover (and re-jet) guess it wouldnt hurt to try.
