What is the best opinion on engine oil to use? I can't seem to find Mobil 1 4T Racing 15W50 anywhere around here.....My first oil change is coming up fast.....

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...

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...

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...

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...

Has anyone put shorty exhaust on their r3t I'm about to get a 2013and was told it wouldn't fit 2nd choice might be cobra tri ovals but read they wouldn't work either. Pretty frustrated at this point and I haven't even got it home. Any help out there?

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...

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...

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

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?

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...

Still looking for the best (smoothest ride) for the rear shocks on my R3. Can't seem to narrow it down. (Along with tires.) Al 06 R3

Hey out there, does anybody know the bore size of the front master cylinder on a 2008 R3T. I was hoping somebody could answer this without me having to unbolt mine to check. It must be something like 17 to 19 mm? Maybe somebody noticed when changing riser or other work.

At the end of this month (weather permitting) I will be riding home on my 2013 Phantom Black Rocket 3 Touring.....80 miles from Wilkes-Barre, PA to Binghamton, NY. I can't wait! What Iam somewhat apprehensive about is backing this beast up.....how hard is it on smooth blacktop? I remember trying...

Are the new clutch and brake levers nice to get? Which brand if so? 06' R3

06 R3 - will be replacing tires, Metzler or Avon?

R3 front and rear springs/shocks Is it worth replacing the front springs on my 06 R3? if so which ones? Also is it worth replacing the rear shocks? which ones on those too. Doing the front shock oil seals and thought about going with progressive springs. And maybe do the rear shocks to, to get...

I have 19,000 miles on my 06 R3 and the one front oil seal started leaking. Has anyone changes these? Is it a job? I Have changed oil seals on my old dirt bikes years ago. Any info would help. Thanks,
