    All they told me was putting it on a dyno( designed for testing bikes) would be “ dangerous,” without elaborating on why they thought that. I believe the problem is in the engine. I believe the crank is out of balance. Or some other part that always rotates at high rpm, and is heavy enough to...

    So they(dealership) told me “ There’s no way in hell” they’re testing my bikes vibration on a dynamometer. “ To dangerous.” Their solution replace my front tire, and go from there. Eight weeks gone by now. Entire summer riding season. Still waiting for that tire that won’t make any difference.

    They said the front tire is out of round, and will “ probably “ replace it under warranty. Also they finally admitted there’s a vibration in “ the rear”. They’ve submitted a warranty claim with Triumph for “ maybe” a driveshaft replacement . It’s been weeks. Haven’t heard 💩 yet. Guess it’s a...

    I do in fact notice this bikes tendency to pull towards the left when riding no hands, which I do a lot to try and negate the vibration on my hands as much as possible. While doing so I pull my right knee out from the tank to act as a wind sail. It helps. I’m no mechanic, but I believe the...

    Thanks for your reply friend. I don’t care about the fuel costs. I didn’t buy this beast to putt around town, and help save the environment. I bought this.....my last ever big bike purchase to feel power, acceleration, speed, and adrenaline. None of which this very expensive bike seems to be...

    I took it in for an annual service last week. They said they bled my rear brake as part of a recall. It made zero difference. Now I have to go back with another issue and biatch about it. I’m desperately trying to love this bike. The more I ride it the harder that’s getting. Appreciate all...

    As if my vibration problem wasn’t bad enough, now I have a weird front end wobble thing going on . Wasn’t there a couple other guys that had this issue?

    If I tried to take this bike up to 130 mph it would look like the Challenger disaster upon re-entry.

    I’ve seen many R3r mirrors with hairline cracks. Including my own. Could be caused by ultrasonic vibrations?

    I’ve scheduled an appointment at a business that does dynamometer tests. I’ve told them that the test isn’t about rpm/ hp. It’s about vibration. I’ll let y’all know what an independent business makes of this bike.

    They’re saying the vibration isn’t bad enough around town to warrant a mechanical claim. And they won’t test it at high speeds because it’s illegal/ liable. I’m between the preverbal rock and a hard place.

    Do your hands and feet go numb after a short while? I have to wear gel insoles in my boots, and special gel padding on the palms of my riding gloves. And I still go numb .

    Your dealership will not test your bike any further outside the bounds of legality (highway speeds) than their mechanic’s are liable to do. That’s where they’ve “got you”. They’ll never test your bike to the level in which it fails for you. I’m going to pay out of pocket, and schedule an...

    Think about it this way....If Triumph had a racing/ designing team which competed in specific classes of bike races. How long do you think they would stay competitive if there engineers couldn’t figure out the complexities within engine specs, suspension/ vibration variables, and frame design...

    I don’t believe for a second that Triumph engineering department doesn’t know what’s causing these MASSIVE vibration problems in the R3r. I think they’re just being douche bags, and refusing to warranty our CLEARLY defective bikes.

    I went out today in a rare day of warm, rideable weather. I noticed a very odd front end .....thrumming? vibration in cruise control at about 50mph. 🙄 like I need another vibe issue.

    Yeah I’m leaning towards the clutch now that I can actually smell something burning at high speed. Thx 👍

    It always comes back to the wheels with these guys. Easiest thing to try first I guess. My issue is NOT the wheels. I’ve taken it up to 100 mph, pulled in the clutch lever, and it instantly gets smooth like butter. I took it up to 110 mph for just a couple seconds the other day, and could smell...
