    Future R3R owner

    Hey everyone. Been lurking a bit and did some posting in the "performance" forum on intake/exhaust mod questions but thought I'd do a formal introduction. I don't own an R3R yet but I can tell ya this: I looked and the Hardleys and the rice cruisers (I don't want a sport bike) and then...

    potential R3 owner

    Hello all! I'm looking at a '13 R3 roadster and would like some input as to the common issue(s), if there are any, that the R3 has and/or the pluses. I love the looks of this beast. I haven't rode one yet, but I'm heading up Monday to see if I can't get a ride in. I currently ride a Kawasaki...

    NewR3 Exhaust on my Rocket

    I kicked it around for a few months and finally decided to buy the Shorty Exhaust from NewR3.com. Here is a link to a video I uploaded to youtube. Let me know what you think. Triumph Rocket III NewR3 Exhaust - YouTube

  5. 2013 R3T - ABS or not ????

    I just bought a 2013 R3T and everything on the dealer site and paperwork about the bike indicates it has ABS. There is only one cable going to each caliper (usually a sensor cable in there somewhere if it has ABS right?) nothing in the manual about ABS and no ABS warning light on start up. Do...

  6. Will HD Grips fit the R3?

    I've got a 2005 RIII and the grips are DONE. I've been looking for replacements, but all I can seem to find are the KuryAkyn Iso Grips (Never really been a fan) and the stock Rocket replacements. I'm looking for something a bit smaller in diameter to make it easier to hold on tight with...

    R3 Metric?????

    I get kinda pissed when I go into my dealer (HD & Triumph) and the parts guy sends me to the "Metric" end of the counter. Soooo... the last time this happened (yesterday) I just stood there and looked at him and asked him just what part of my Triumph was MORE METRIC than the Harley on the floor...

    R3's the answer - wot was the question?

    Returning to 2 wheels after life got in the way for a while. Wanted a Ducati Monster, thought I should check out the Speed Triple for comparison, saw the T'Bird Storm on the showroom floor and a little bit of wee came out, went home on the R3R - 'nuf said. Only complaint so far is that the...

    R3T Tire Replacement

    Well its time to go tire shopping again. I've tried the Metz and Avon Cobras after the short stint with the OEM Bridgestones that self destructed. I was planning on trying a set of the new Bridgestone Exedra Max tires, but I have one concern. They are load rated at 71 which translates to a max...

    Dear friends I think this subject has already been treated, but I want to know what are the best rear shocks for the Rocket 3 Roadster. I just got my bike since last week and after a long ride last Saturday I decided to change them! The originals are terribles...:(:(:( Thank you for your...

    Spoon feeding R3 newbies

    Does anyone think it's funny how new or prospective R3 owners will get on the site and ask questions without doing a quick search? Has no one ever heard of google, the interweb or a "search" button? I'm all about dishing out advice, but c'mon, just do a little bit. Make an effort, guys! If...

    Dan visits UT and AZ on his R3T: 1,500 miles/ 2.5 days

    I'm getting the R3T out on the road this weekend to prove once again that it really is a touring bike (yes, even without a 6th gear, fairing or cruise control).:o Heading up to Southern Utah and Northern Arizona "just because." It was going to be an easy 1,300-miler, but a landslide south of...

    R3T Chrome front fender rail kit

    I just picked up my 2013 R3T at the dealership and was disappointed that the A9708156 chrome front fender rail kit hadn't been installed (one of the many accessories that I wanted) The salesman told me that it is a discontinued item. Why would Triumph discontinue this when still selling the same...

    Hello everyone, I have a little dilemma I'm hoping for a little insight. I have been reading reviews, watching you tube videos and talking to as many people I can find to seek their opinions on the R3 roadster. I went down to our local Triumph dealership today to pull the trigger on ordering an...

    DataTool S4 Alarm on R3

    I have now done around a 1,000 miles on my R3 Roadster and we are getting used to each other. Marvellous! The bike arrived in Hong Kong new from the UK with the alarm already fitted. I was washing the bike today, perhaps being somewhat over-generous with the water around the top of the...

    R3T TORS power gain?

    Anybody have any idea what kind of horsepower gain you get when installing the Triumph accessory silencers on an otherwise completely stock engine?

  19. R3, love it

    Well, hello. I have used this site back and forth a bit. Love my R3, did Sturgis South, and Sturgis North last year on her. Just posted about my ABS light staying on. Anyone else had this?

  20. R3 rear shocks - last question.. maybe..

    I found on ebay the Progressive 412 12.5" part #412-4219C for $221.90 The Progressive 412 13" part #412-4213C for $221.90. And the 440 12.5" part #440-4233C for $493.65. All heavy duty.. assuming you get what you pay for, and the 440's are the best and/or newest, I'm leaning toward the...
