Hello - I recently bought my first R3T - awesome bike. I have noticed a fair bit of vibration when I accelerate either quickly or slowly (how do you accelerate slowly on a Rocket?) I know this has been discussed before but it was unclear to me if this is a constant vibration or only happens at...
500 US DOLLARS FOR A WINDSHIELD AT THE DEALER THEN 89.00 USD FOR MOUTING BRACKETS SO 600 USD FOR THIS THING.YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. IT'S PLEXY GLASS AND A FEW BRACKETS! IT WOULD SEEM AMAZON EBAY AND OTHERS HAVE NONE FOR SELL AT ANY PRICE. JUST WANT A LITTLE SOMETHING OUT FRONT TO BREAK THE...
Just got a new R3R and immediately realized I needed a windshield cause it felt like it was trying to peel me off each time I went into rocket mode...LOL
Looked at the OEM Windshield and $500. I asked if that came with some lube. The parts guy said sadly, no.
Interesting that several non...
I have a 2013 R3T (USA Model, advertised as having ABS) with 7K miles on it, and on two occasions when I've needed to emergency brake, the rear wheel locked up.
Also, I haven't ever felt the ABS pulsing when I engage the brakes (front and/or rear).
I haven't gone to the dealer yet since I'm...
Hello Gentleman,
Just joined this site and am wondering if I should be a little concerned. I purchased this new Rocket Roadster a few weeks ago, and was enjoying a nice evening ride when I noticed a nice red/orange glow from exhaust manifold. No mods as of yet and am wondering if factoring...
Hey guy's just a question in regards to the TOR's. When I finally get to buy my Rocket, I wish to have the TOR'S placed on at the dealers. First of all does this system need a Power Commander added:confused:. Secondly do I need a new tune , and can the dealer do this:confused:. This subject has...
Hi All:
I now have over 4000 miles on my R3R and thought I'd update my original http://www.r3owners.net/rocket-iii-roadster/15851-2013-r3-roadster-review.html . It's a long post so thought I'd just create new thread.
- My original comments on the shocks were too negative. With only 400...
I've got a 2013 R3 Roadster with about 4k miles on it now, and it is mostly stock except for cosmetic and comfort upgrades. I am looking to upgrade the exhaust, put the K&N air filter on it, and put a power commander on it and get it tuned up at the shop.
In my online searching for exhaust...
Hi,
I have a 2011 R3 Roadster. The aftermarket TORs exhaust should be arriving today, and I'll have it installed by this evening. I won't be doing anything to the catbox, etc. Any recommended tunes?
The last six digits of my VIN are 473885. Would you recommend 20355?
THANKS :)
Hi I am cbr3fl. I have an 06 R3 classic. My only interest is riding my bike otherwise i'm working which isn't that much fun 55y.o. It's a nice bike but sounds like a garbage disposal when in gear.This is a clutch problem need some ideas.
It's important you know that owning a R3R is going to ruin you for any other bike, and very likely going to blow a hole in your diary on every day the sun is shining
Please also allow plenty of talk time for when you are in a petrol station or stood near the bike... People want to know if you...

Hi,
Just joined the site. I am thinking of buying a Triumph Rocket. Just not sure that its the bike for me maybe I can fined out more here? I have heard some negative things about this bike but it draws me in like a magnet. (performance/looks). I do have 10 years of riding experience. Hope to...
Hi All,
So I have a little wait for my new 2013 Roadster (Phantom Black) :(
Until mid-september I will be reading up on and maybe buying some bits for performance, luggage, comfort etc etc
So far I figure (but haven't decided on any makes/models in particular) the following:

Hey all, I want to put a rear trunk on my 2013 R3T, any suggestions or opinions for this, I do want a hard case, and one I can paint to match the bike.
Well the story is as follows, my wife decided to tick of an item from her bucket list, which was owning and riding a motorcycle. She purchased a Harley 883 Low, took the riding course and we worked with her to get her riding. Initially, I wasn't going to get a bike, I wanted to make sure it...
