  1. The #1 reason why the r3t does not sell well

    I think Rocket Scientist has a point. If you have the biggest engine, best torque/hp and then detune the bike to the point that it's not much different than any other in the same category then what made it special in the first place has been stripped. That combined with poor gas mileage and...

  2. The #1 reason why the r3t does not sell well

    Can someone tell me why the r3t is so detuned compared to the r3r specs? Seems like the roadster setup could be used for touring and mods wouldn't have to be done (at least for most).

  3. 5,700 miles and I need a new rear tire

    why does the rear wear out so fast? I'm hearing that the rear wears real fast. Is it the weight? Torque? Corning hard? What about the front? Great bike but what an expense.:mad::mad:

  4. R3T as a trike

    I'm ready to trike an R3 yet but has anyone seen any kits that look good and function? I'm in Canada.

  5. Specs/mileage/hard bags for Roadster 2011

    Don't have the bike yet. Deciding between a Rocket III Roadster and Thunderbird 1700. Anyone know what mileage you get on a Roadster? I want to add hard bags, floorboards, fairing or windscreen. Is Corbin the only choice? I hope not. Thanks. Might add some custom paint later but...

  6. Best price on R3Tour Ontario or New York

    Is it worth buying in the US? I'm in Toronto. It seems you usually get a better price in the US. Anything to be careful of? I saw 2 dealers not too far from Buffalo, one in Akron and another in Canandaigua.

  7. Torque & HP. What's it really mean?

    Rocket at GP Bikes $18K and something. When I asked at GP Bikes if the bike came that way they said it did. Said all the additional items came at the same price as last years. I guess I won't know until I'm ready to buy and they're ready to sell. Do you think there's a chance the Tour will...

  8. Torque & HP. What's it really mean?

    I'm looking at the 2010 Rocket III Tour. Trying to compare engine specs of a Rocket to an Suzuki M109R and Roadliner. Seems some HP is higher while other's torque is higher. What's more significant? Also trying to get specs on the 2010 Rocket III Tour for Canada. I saw one at GP Bikes and...

  9. Rocket III questions - buying soon

    Actually Mr Big goes back to the Rocky & Bullwinkle days. But I'm also 242 # and 6'1" so I guess I'm also big. Thanks for all the info on shocks and bags. Seems like it comes down to the final price. I'm in Toronto. Would love to get the US price. I've heard of importing the bike from the...

  10. Rocket III questions - buying soon

    I haven't finished negotiating with the dealer yet and have some questions before I sign. I'm looking at a Classic 2008 or 2009 and have heard about the rear suspension being very rough on the highways. I also saw that Triumph offers an upgrade "Comfort Touring Suspension Pak". What's in this...
