    For Sale R3 Touring Instrument Cluster, stock exhaust, rear shocks

    I have an instrument cluster for a 2011 R3 Touring. I bought it new trying to remedy a fuel gage that wasn't working. It seems the cluster wasn't the issue, and due to a test ride, the odometer now has 5 miles on it. I also have the stock exhaust and rear shocks for sale. I am located in the...

    Any issues with 2011 Rocket Touring??

    I just had to buy a cluster off of eBay ($185) because my fuel gauge stopped working. The dealer wanted $690 for the part and installation. Triumph America told me it's only the 4th bad cluster in 4 years. Also, the Triumph emblems on both sides of the gas tank are peeling off. The clear coat on...

    Tank badges coming off? Any solutions?

    I'm trying to imagine how you used the board to apply pressure to the badge. Was the tank still on the bike?

    Tank badges coming off? Any solutions?

    The tank badges are starting to pull away from the tank on my 2011 R3T. They are pulling away on the back end of the badge, closest to the seat. Any ideas out there on getting them to stick? Between this, the dead fuel gauge, and some other small issues, I'm starting to think the R3T is the...

    Looking for an R3T instrument cluster - 2011 model

    The dealer confirmed that the cluster is the issue with the fuel gauge not working. It seems that it's only the 4th one in the last 4 years Triumph America has seen go bad (the bike had 5K miles on it when it stopped working). The parts, labor, and tax are $690. If you see a used one anywhere...

    Ouch!! A new instrument cluster is how much?!?!

    Thank you! Can you see these codes on TuneECU, or is it on another tool (sorry, I'm new to all this)?

    Ouch!! A new instrument cluster is how much?!?!

    Thanks for the info! It always shows empty, and miles to empty is always zero. The mechanic checked all the pins and wiring, and it checked out. He drained the tank and manually raised the float, but the gauge didn't move. Tune ECU did say there was a fuel error, but I don't remember exactly...

    Ouch!! A new instrument cluster is how much?!?!

    I have a 2011 R3T with 6k miles on it. At about 5k, the fuel gauge stopped working. After having everything checked by a certified mechanic (but not Triumph specific), and using Tune ECU (for what that's worth), the issue is likely the instrument cluster. The Triumph dealer wants $50 to run...

    What is the best throttle lock to buy

    I just left a message for Brakaway. I have a 2011 R3T, with HD Heritage bars and Oxford heated grips. I'm hoping they have a lock that will work for that set-up.

    Fuel Gauge and possible speedo issues R3T

    I filled the tank several times. The gauge is dead. I rode the bike 100+ miles yesterday, and still dead. I took it to a mechanic yesterday, but he doesn't have the service manual for the Touring model, and the pin diagrams for the instrument plug are different between the Touring and Roadster...

    Fuel Gauge and possible speedo issues R3T

    I guess I'm funny like that - I want things that are supposed to function to actually function. :)

    Fuel Gauge and possible speedo issues R3T

    DOES THat mean almost to the top? did u fill it up? if not then fill to spacer ring and try that. Sorry, my comment was not very clear. After changing the bars (and removing the gauges on the tank in the process), I had about 1/8 of a tank of fuel. I filled the tank all the way to the top...

    Fuel Gauge and possible speedo issues R3T

    Thank you, but I've ridden it for a couple of hours, and the fuel gauge still doesn't work. I filled the tank with about 1/8 of a tank, the light went away, but the gauge continued to drop all the way to empty and it will no longer register anything at all.

    Fuel Gauge and possible speedo issues R3T

    I bought a used, 2011 R3T with 4100 miles on it. After the first week, the speedo didn't work the first few minutes of the ride, and then it started working again, and has been fine ever since. It has never "swept" when turning on the ignition. I couple of weeks ago I changed bars, which for...

    Is my Rocket III Touring too heavy for me?

    Unless you are really small, it's not too big for you. I went from a 420 lb. bike to this. As you've seen in previous posts, there is a technique for lifting a heavy bike. I think the stock handlebars make it handle "heavy" in slow speed situations, and I'll be changing those out soon to gain...

    Any issues with 2011 Rocket Touring??

    I think you can find a better deal. I just bought a 2011 off of Craigslist with 4100 miles on it for $8500, and it had upgraded suspension, aftermarket pipes, heated grips, a nice piece of luggage for the luggage rack, and a cover. I've never really cared for cruisers or touring bikes, but I...

    First time Rocket owner looking for simple advice on oil changes

    Thank you! I know it sounded like a stupid question, but I've been changing the oil in cars, lawn mowers, and anything that takes oil for the last 33 years, and this is the first time I've seen a cap like this. Thanks for easing my mind.
