    Rev Limiter to 7400?

    Sorry if this is a stupid question but just connected up Tuneecu to remove the service interval message and checked my rev limiter. It was set on 7000. Did I miss something when I updated with the free Penner tune? I upped it to 7400. Anything I should be worried about? Seems on google it's a...

    Triumph claims No Clutches EVER fixed under Warranty

    As some of you know, I had issues with my clutch in 2020. I recently followed up after seeing another Triumph video of the Rocket 3 doing large burnouts in an advertisement/promotion. When I asked Triumph about this, they claimed they have NEVER had to do a clutch repair/replacement under...

    I love my Rocket 3 R but ......

    Not a bad idea. Would get 12 months. :)

    Ways to disable need for Clutch to start bike?

    What am I missing? I don't have to depress the clutch on all my bikes to start them. Not that it's a big deal to me doing it.

    Holy smokes - Rocket TFC THORNTON mod <3

    Street cred to looking like a hipster. Not for me.

    How come you lot haven't snapped this up yet?

    Wouldn't want to look like a hipster.

    I love my Rocket 3 R but ......

    It must be close to 18 months or 2 years I have had it now. I might be exaggerating a little bit but it feels like for half the time I have owned it, it has been in the workshop. From the initial clutch issue which seemed to go for 4-6 months to various starting issues. The latest; I haven't...

    Bad news - Good news

    As I said, I got told early last year there were no other stronger options. Looks like nothing has changed yet.

    Bad news - Good news

    You are so lucky. My clutch went after a month or two and Triumph blamed wear and tear and said I was probably doing burnouts with TC on and outright refused to acknowledge any fault. I had to pay the $2000AUD ($1500USD) to get it fixed. At the time, there were no better clutch options I was...

    Battery won't stay working .......

    Giggled the earth connector on the battery even though it is tight and she starts now. Can't tighten it anymore though so I have to fiddle with its position.

    Battery won't stay working .......

    I thought I had a flat battery so I linked it up to another to start it. Started fine but as soon as I disconnected the cords from the other battery, it just stopped working. It won't charge. Original battery 2 years old. Am I missing something else it could be?

    Clutch gone after 2 months......

    No. It is cost me about $2000 AUD which is about $1400 USD. She's been fine ever since but I haven't ridden her like in the video ever again. :(

    My Jinxed Rocket 3 R

    Maybe slight exaggeration 😝 but hopefully not much. She's been in the workshop being built now since last December. Delays due to covid, custom parts being built in the US, etc etc. Big stroker 1200, new everything almost. Will destroy Ducati Streetfighters. Seemed like a great idea last...

    My Jinxed Rocket 3 R

    You got me! I confess. I'm not slowing down! I am not buying a Harley. 😝 I am not selling my Busa, ZX12R nor my build of the world's fastest Katana. 😝

    My Jinxed Rocket 3 R

    The car that ran into me came off second best. 😝 I'm in an area atm with a certain demographic who struggle on the road. Needed to heighten senses above and beyond when I moved here. 😝

    Wobble

    As per some of the above answers also... I assume front wheel has positioned itself somehow not direction of intended travel. (I know... simple answer). Once you pointed it back to the right direction and gave it throttle, you recovered?

    My Jinxed Rocket 3 R

    Update: Parts have finally arrived. Only took since start of March. Today I ship her to the shop to finally be restored to perfect condition.

    Steering Damper

    Not sure there's a big market for them for this bike given the types of roads we generally would ride. Do you ride on a lot of bad roads at times? Never had anything even close to wobbles yet. All the best with your search brother. Keep us updated.

    My Jinxed Rocket 3 R

    Update: Parts now will probably not arrive until September. That has been a wait since March. So as much as I still love the bike, it irks me every time I have to look at my damaged bike. I estimate in the 12-15 months or whatever I have had her, less than 3 months she's been home with me...

    Rear Brake - How's it meant to feel?

    Hey Brother. All good. A bit of an issue at times going into 3rd but nothing to serious. Thanks for asking. :)
