  1. New Triumph + R3 owner here

    Howdy, folks. Mainer here. I'm a long-time admirer of Triumph, and especially the R3. I rode various bikes from my later teen years into my mid 20's, then took a break from riding in order to prioritize getting married and starting a family. Several years later, now in my early 30's, we've...

  5. OEM Saddlebags & Brackets R3 R Storm

    Installed yesterday. Thinking of powder coating brackets black. Bags are a bit disappointing, closures, zippers, locking (luggage style), barrel lock mechanism (fell apart while trying to transfer from storage collar to bag - reconstructed fine though), overall construction durability, for the...

  7. Triumph R3 GT 2020 VS 2023 differences.

    I found a set of crash bars. NOT China. On his compatibility list, he has 2020 thru 2022. I have a 2023. I don't believe that there would be any differences that would prevent mounting the crash bars. It is better to ask now, than cuss up a storm later if I am wrong. Thanks Russ

  10. Rear brake 2016 R3

    Jumped on my 2016 Roadster, she’s been sitting for a year. My 2023 Chrome Edition became my first choice. Anyway, got half a mile down the road, rear brake pedal, no pressure, no brake. The MC fluid is at perfect level. Wonder if anyone has an idea before I ride it 25 miles to dealer.
  11. R3 Touring 2013 Fuel Filter Location

    I am in the process of doing my first maintenance on 2013 R3 Touring. I can't find the fuel filter and, to the best of my understanding, after reviewing the service manual, I believe that it is located inside the tank. Access through lifting the tank and removing the bolts from the oval access...

  14. Easy Steer triple tree for my 2023 R3 GL.

    We are going to have a sidecar from Hannigan mounted on my R3G L. There is a good chance that I will have to modify the Rake or trail with a different triple tree. Last week I came across a company that makes them. At the time I did not think I would need one so I did not bookmark the page...
