    Question: does anyone installed a Rocket 3 Storm GT front screen to the R ?

    Nicely done! I have the adjustable Madstad (out of business) bracket that I use not only with their shield in winter (ugly), but also with the sport screen to change the angle. Still, doesn't really do all that much for wind protection.

    how to remove gear shift pedal?

    It sure looks like you could, but I don't know how that might affect the settings on the TSA. If it weren't a dealer only install I would say to go for it, but wondering if undoing it might affect the settings somehow. If you do, I would mark where everything is currently adjusted with a...

    Question: does anyone installed a Rocket 3 Storm GT front screen to the R ?

    I have the small sport screen on my 3R. Better than nothing and looks good, but I switch to something bigger and uglier for colder weather and long trips, especially involving highway/interstate miles.

    Rebuilding motorcycle after timing chain skip 62K Km

    IF (?) it IS possible to go from underneath that would be the easy way, for certain. As far as a shop, what you see in the photos is a 10 x 12 shed with just a small area of that devoted to the bike. I did have support running to the ceiling- the janky looking jack stands were not all. Without...

    Lube the splines...

    No- you'll find that Triumph says to replace every bolt that has any kind of Loctite on it- even the ones that hold the plastic round badge at the center of your rear wheel. 👍

    Lube the splines...

    I've been laying a bit low. Had some heart scares after getting my Mom through the hospital during the holidays, into rehab, and now finally back home. I just did a heart catheterization two days ago (went OK) and the 3R is just starting to undergo what will be a very slow, I'm sure, to finish...

    Rocket 3 GT exhausts.

    Did you install the db killers? How much louder is it than stock on a scale from... the same <-> to loud AF? Edit: According to their website it's 106db - 2 to 4db with the "db killers"...

    Hello from Türkiye

    Welcome- from the tight twisties of western North Carolina (USA). Where are you in Turkey? I was there about two years ago and trekked The Lycian Way. Loved being in your country and the people there.

    Eastern Rally July 2026

    I read that a meteor created that formation. For those interested that haven't done the ride, it circles around the outside of the crater and then circles back down into the "bowl." I've only been twice, but didn't see any other bikes (hardly anyone, really). It's a very insulated community, as...

    Eastern Rally July 2026

    Thank you, Warp- my memory ain't what it used to be. No wonder I couldn't find it online the way I renamed it :-). You, btw, are the person who first told me about God's Thumbprint! Beautiful ride and once you're in the "bowl" there is the added Amish element, which is cool. Devil's...

    Eastern Rally July 2026

    Just throwing this out to put in the mix. Willville Bike Camp They have a few cabins and amble camping space, bonfire scene nightly. Very eclectic mix of bikes and riders. Google Maps 1hour 14 minutes to Back of the Dragon, but I'd take a longer less direct route...

    Front Tire Choices

    Curious- what size tire is the Road 6 on the front of your 3R in combination with the rear? Are you running the Exedra Max on the rear, or something else?

    Steering head and swingarm service

    My steering head bearings were loosened after I went down. I got the factory tool and snugged it back up, but it's probably time now to replace the bearings and I've been putting it off. I seem to remember someone on here having done the swing arm bearings, or maybe just contemplating it. Edit...

    Triumph coolant not available

    That sure sounds right and makes sense, but I will say that my bike overheated once and after topping up the coolant (just low in the overflow) it hasn't overheated again in probably 5,000 miles. Probably just a coincidence though. I replaced mine with Zerex G-05 in the gold jugs is Hybrid OAT...

    Front Tire Choices

    I believe the new official tire for the 2.5 Rockets is the Cruistec, was Avons. They used to promote Castrol with their bikes, them Mobil 1, and now.... I don't even know. These official brands are business relationships between various companies and Triumph. Not sure if you came to the 2.5...

    Coolant Choices

    Primarily, availability. IF you can walk into a Triumph dealership and get coolant than that may be the best option. I dare you to try to get a single shim that fits everything from Bonneville's to Rockets from a dealership. They order everything- also why bikes sit in the shop for so long...

    Coolant Temperature Sensor Mystery

    I haven't had another incident, so assuming it was the low coolant level only.
