  10. My R3GT won’t start after a puncture

    whilst the puncture obviously didn’t actually cause it to not start, it was the catalyst. A week prior i did s ride, all good. Following weekend my wife pointed out a flat rear tyre.

  12. 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...

  15. 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
  16. 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...

    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?
  20. 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.
