    Buying used or new

    Hey all, I went around a blind corner on one of those rustic roads up in wi last weekend and popped a 4x4 atv dead center of their lane on my 1290 SDR. No injuries although I personally feel like a pinata after the party. I probably should have got the offenders info but being dinged and in farm...

    No R3T for 2017

    I got a look at the line up for the 2017 and the R3T and Trophy are missing! The fact that the R3r is still here means it's not an emission thing but poor sales that killed them. I think triumph never gave the bikes a chance if you look at the competition. The R3t looked like triumphs answer to...

    Roadster map in touring

    I've read powertripps thread and map that unlocks 30 bhp from the touring but I don't remember reading if it will affect the warranty? I have been blabbing to anybody with working ears how they can unleash the beast while salesmen stand by shaking their heads. I was going to help load this tune...

    passenger buffeting

    Just got back from a 200 mile round trip ride with my wife on my 06 standard with the tall roadster screen and she finally said no more long rides, she says she feels like she's in the ring with Mike Tyson! My wife broke some ribs a couple years back (riding our waverunners) and rode back thru...

    Roadster gauges

    I really like the digital display on the tach side of the roadster and was wondering if anyone here has fitted one on a standard and if it works or can be made to work. A gas gauge and clock would be nice on the long rides.

    Blacked out grill

    I really like the matte black on the new roadsters so I bought a can of spray paint and did my standard bear claw, and radiator grill. It came out good but a warning to anyone thinking about doing it antifreeze is starting to leak a little from the screw holes I had to remove to get the plastic...

    Thunderbird?

    So Triumph has put all of it's eggs into the p-16. They came out with 2 more models this year and the phantom harley sightings were triumph using the big p-twin with the road king body! Why should this frustrate me, i'm not going to buy an LT for the same price as a R3t. I don't get it. The bird...

    Probably posting in wrong place but wanted to post about my day on my classic. I live 175 miles sseast of the bluffs in devils lake.
