    Oil Drain Plug - Non-OEM ok?

    Long story, but I need another drain plug and washer and I really don’t want to wait a week or more to order it. Any reason a standard M14x1.5 oil drain plug won’t work? What about the ones with the manner on the tip? Helpful? Was looking at something like this.

    Pics of Roadster with Black Crash Bars on Front/Back?

    I'm considering putting on some crash bars, but I don't want to take too much away from the look. I think if they are black it won't stand out too much? I'd love to see pics of what it looks like on the front/back if you have them! Also, where can you get these things nowadays?!? Thanks, guys!

    Please advise - about to leave on a trip - how concerned shall I be?!!

    Hey, guys! I'm about to leave on a trip, and as I was loading the motorcycle onto the trailer, I wasn't paying attention to the clearance as I pulled up the ramp and into the trailer. The bottom of the block hit the metal edge of the trailer deck and caught a washer/bolt. Here are a couple...

    Trip through Colorado - altitude?!

    I’ll be headed out to Colorado for a weeklong ride this summer. I currently live at about 600’ elevation and will be spending most of my time in Colorado at 6000’-10,000’. My understanding I’d trust I should expect a decrease in horsepower. Is that accurate? Anything else? Thank you !

    Luggage Options?!

    Hey, guys! I’m going on a multi-day trip this summer and while I have the Triumph saddlebags on some Easy Brackets, they really don’t hold much. I had considered putting on a luggage rack of some kind, but a) I’m not sure they could be mounted at the same time as the Easy Bracket mounts and...

    What's it worth?!

    Fellas, I'm toying with the idea of selling my R3R and getting a Triumph Tiger. I'm taking a trip out west next summer and am intrigued with the long-distance compliance of the Tiger and the ability to go off road a bit if I have the opportunity. I don't know if I can actually bring myself to...

    Do you ever get "the itch"?!

    So, I get "the itch" every few years and I think I want a different motorcycle. I took my R3R out of the garage yesterday along with the plethora of accessories I have for it and took pictures to potentially list it for sale. My kids asked if I was selling it and I told them, "I'm not sure...

    Forward controls, crash bars, stock pegs...

    Hey, fellas! So my R3R came with the FC17 forward controls. I like them ok (they are all I know) but it’s slightly awkward for me to depress the brake due to the mini floorboards and all my weight is on my hind end. I’d like to add crash bars, but I can’t with the FC17 kit. With all of this...

    Luggage Rack and Easy Brackets?

    Hey, fellas! I have Easy Brackets I use with leather Triumph bags on trips. It would be great to throw on a luggage rack behind my solo seat on those trips as well. Is there a way to use a luggage rack AND saddlebags with Easy Brackets at the same time? Thanks!

    Gift ideas for riders?

    I’d like to get a motorcycle-related gift for my father-in-law, who got me my first motorcycle and I get to ride with a couple times a year (we live in separate states). What are some fun, quirky gifts you’ve gotten that you just thought were great? Practical is ok, too (like a specialized...

    So, if the Rocket weren’t an option, what bike would you want? What’s the “next best thing”? Just curious!

    ** SOLD ** Sena SMH10 Dual Bluetooth Headsets

    Friends, I have a set of Sena SMH10 headsets that are barely used. We needed a set for a recent trip because we forgot ours. :confused: The only thing that won’t come with them is the original sticky Velcro that goes in your helmet for the earphones and the foam pads that go over them. The...

    Black Crash Bars in a R3R?
