    Does anybody have a chrome oil tank on their R3T? I've never seen even one picture anywhere. Isn't it an accessory that you can buy, same as on the Roadster?
  10. Any header upgrades for r3t?

    I'm at 17K miles and will soon go in for my first valve adjustment. I was considering removing the head and having my friend port, mill and maybe even big valve the head. If I do this, I'll be in need of a better flowing header. I have good flowing D&D's that are loud enough. I have been told...

    Okay, I've verified my cable (twice), downloaded the latest Tuneecu software, drivers downloaded and used, and a test map downloaded for me to look at before I actually plug into my bike. All I'm wanting to do is to unrestrict my first three gears and be done. No other mods at this time...

  20. New look for the r3t

    Has anyone here ever seen a R3T with the bags removed and the bike customized to look more like a stripped Harley bagger? I wonder what one would look like? New brackets to support the mufflers and pull them in closer to the bike would have to be built, but it might not be too bad of a...
