  1. An R3 project tale

    A few weeks ago I was looking for a bike project in an attempt to fight boredom in retirement and saw an '05 R-III on Craigslist. It had been partially disassembled by the owner who was investigating "a tick" in the motor. Upon getting it home, I discovered that as the crank was turned it would...
  2. When I say that these last 3 days of owning my first R3 have been the best of my life I am exaggerating, but not much

    We have spent every waking moment together I have a bathroom in the garage. I’ve taken her out to eat everyday. I might pull my bed into the garage. What I mean is, I think I’m in love.
  3. 23 r3 gt stall/hard start

    Hello all, bought my first rocket and it has been an absolute dream however I have a couple of issues that concern me. 1). It is hard to start, I have to crank the engine and then rev it in order to get it to start and stay at idle. Seems to happen regardless of hot or cold engine. 2). When...
  4. R3 GT air filter change

    for anyone who has changed an air filter on one of the new rockets, when you removed the 3 air intake pipes from the top of the aluminum section on the left side of the bike, if you looked inside of that, did you see oil in there, i'm trying to figure out if this is normal or not
  5. Test Rode The R3... But....

    I took the Rocket 3 GT for a 230 km test ride. I did not like the fwd foot pegs and the higher, more back handle bar. The weight and length of the Rocket was definitely felt especially in the mountains. I mostly ride a KTM Super Duke R Gen. 3 and a Speed Twin 1200.... However I bought the...
  6. R3 r clutch

    Has anyone done a clutch replacement on our bikes? If so where are the clutch discs and everything located and how do they come apart? I have a 2020 r. I’ve done clutch replacements on past bikes like my old r1 and old cbr1000rr but not sure if it’s anything similar on these bikes. Thanks!

  8. R3 hardware source?

    I bought a (lamonstergarage XL Rack) and didn't realize I needed the OEM hardware to mount it. Is there a source for just the mounting hardware without having to buy the entire luggage rack kit from Triumph?
  9. US penner tune for 2022 r3 GT

    I've never used TuneECU before, but noticed the US version does NOT say no restrictions, yet the non US version says No restrictions. So is the US version still restricted and how do you unlock the top speed? Again never used Tune ECU but plan to.
  10. Penner Tune Question on stock 2022 r3 GT

    Does the US version of the penner tune include unlocking the top speed as well as increasing the reclines for a stock 22 r3 GT? Will it erase my cruise control functions? Also does this improve MPG for casual riding? I ask about the MPG because a YouTuber had his stock flashed on a dyno and not...

  12. New to R3

    Hello all, New R3 owner. Just did the basic oil change, brake flush and, oh my goodness, the clutch fuid flush. Id like to give a couple of head smacks to the engineers that put the flush nipple behind the radiator. Happy riding!!
  13. Adding Apple Car Play to my R3

    It is so convenient to have Apple Car Play on your ride especially when you can use Waze for Police warnings. But the only way I have found to install on my bike was a Ram Mount. I never cared for these due to it raised the unit too high above the stock Fly Screen. So I Engineered and machined a...

What are these bikes like to work on as I've always done my own spanner work & refuse to go to dealers. Sorry but most dealers I've dealt with happy to charge a fortune for crap workmanship. Thanks 👍
  18. Tuning a 2023 onwards R3

    I've been making enquiries this morning about getting my 2023 R3GT booked into a dyno shop for a remap as I'm ordering one of Paul Bryant's new 2.5L exhaust systems. I'm being told by various sources that the ECU on '23 onwards bikes can't be overwritten. I said it wasn't a 2024 Storm but a...

    Was driving east on the M8 on Friday 28/3 afternoon and was passed by what looked like a turbocharged 2.3l R3. Was that anybody here? Whoever it was was brave! It was absolutely pissing down and blowing a gale!
