    Rear Brake Question

    This is on a 2014 abs Touring where I recently replaced the caliper & caliper carrier. I screwed it in pretty far & it seems to be working fine, but I don't know the how & why of it. Can anyone tell me how this should be adjusted? I couldn't find any reference in my shop manual. Thanks

    Another LED Turn Signals Post

    Having seen Jake Shaw's beautiful King Pack that he added to his 2014 Touring, along with my long time desire vision of adding a hard trunk had inspired me to do the same. My wife got me a XFMT King Tour Pack Trunk w rear speakers, LED Turn Run Brake light bar, luggage rack etc. It came in...

    Can anyone identify this bolt?

    I had a very small oil drip & without thinking I assumed it was a drain bolt. So set my torque wrench to 25Nm. Feeling no resistance as it went in beyond flush I stopped. Now realizing it is not a drain bolt I'm concerned about not knowing what I don't know. I have been told by Triumph parts...

    Totaled my 2014 R3T

    I have been riding since the early 70's accident free. Until a couple weeks ago. I still dont know exactly what happened but best guess, I was changing lanes left & hitting the throttle a bit. My wife said she checked the next day & there was road debris i.e. sand & dirt. I think the rear tire...

    So several weeks ago out of the blue, my bike wouldn't start. Just clack & wouldn't turn over. After checking wires switches etc. I gave up & took it to the local Nashville Triumph dealer. Two weeks later they said, it's starting now, but not running right and will only start IF the power...

    Help with tire size!

    I'm traveling back home after 3 weeks touring & my rear tires too thin. Having trouble finding anyone in Kansas city with a 180/70R 16. I'm currently running an Avon 200/60R 16. All I can find is a Dunlop 200/55R 16 & a 180/60R 16. Can anyone tell me if either of these will work on my 2014...

    On a long tour & engine sputtering

    I had my 20k miles service a few weeks before departure last week and the bike was running great for a trip out west. So all was good when I left Nashville but started sort of hesitating and sputtering. It accelerates ok, but holding any speed below 75 or 80mph. It sputters. This mostly...

    Side by Side All out Dyno Racing

    The local Harley dealer sponsored a side by side dyno 1/4 mile drag race. Times & such are meaningless but it was still fun! Especially since I won my catagory (non-v-twin) and had the fastest time of everything that ran by a full 2 seconds. The prize was a cool metal trophy and a $200 gift...

    I found a tuneboy dyno tuner in Gallatin, Tn. Jeremy Weber at Classic Motorcycle Performance. I stopped by just to get a run in after my mods. Ramair, Paul Bryant crossover, & TORS. The map I most recently installed was the 20258 off the tuneecu custom maps section. The result was 145hp 154Tq...

    Can anyone suggest a tune for a crossover & ram air on r3t?

    I have a stock 2014 R3T except for the trip tune for stock or slip ons. This weekend I will be removing the intake plumbing and installing a ram air along with a Bryant crossover. Tors or d&d's to come a while later. Is there a better tune for this set up? Thanks!

    Anyone running a 200 rear on a Touring with ABS?

    I just ordered and recieved a new set of tires for my 2014 R3T. Before having them installed I got to thinking, "I wonder if the "less than a 1/4" difference in diameter will effect the ABS?" (why didn't i consider this Before ordering? ... duh!) Anyway, I'd read of people running a 200/60r16...

    My new 2014 R3T

    So, my name is Gary, I do a fair amount of touring & so rack up miles pretty fast, lately on a C109 full dresser w K&N's and unrestricted 2 into 1's. 38,000 miles in a little over 2 years. So I figured its time to sell before it has so many miles on it that if I wanna sell i'd have to give it...
