:kk:My dozey Canuck dealer just informed me that the Triumph Dust cover that I ordered 3 months ago is discontinued from Triumph( also the heavier outdoor rated Roadster cover is also discontinued.) So now I will be looking for an indoor/garage use cover to fit a 2011 R3 Roadster. Any members...
Joined today, looked like a very informative group, lots of information. I have had my 2005 Rocket III for almost 2 years now and put almost 18,000 on it. Great ride, except my ingintion switch is starting to go out. I'm from Tampa, Florida and I'm the President of Sons of Sinners riders...
Got my Corbin classic solo seat in yesterday and it fits like a charm! drops me around 2" closer to the ground (almost flat footed now). Wanted to add this post since I have not seen it here yet and Corbin only shows up to 2009 on their site.
Thanks USMC-R3!
A few of us may recall that Brent from TLC Products was putting together some saddlebag liners for our bikes last year.
I received a message from him recently (like some of you probably have) and ordered the pair. About $50 a set delivered. They look good on the website so I'll let you...
Can anyone tell me if the Touring models have the same problems as the classics and standards? by this I mean....
TPS problems
The ignition switch problems
Paint can rattle in transmission problems
2nd gear problems.
I have been reading about these issues with other models but I am not sure...
I remember reading somewhere that you can buy or make lifting brackets that bolt onto the 2 holes in the frame.
Anyone have a link to that or a design I can use to weld up my own?
These brackets would need to go on a regular Harbour freight MC lift.
I am really wary of lifting the bike by the...
Hi guys,
Sorry if this is TL;DR
Whilst I love my F800GS for the adventure riding of dirt roads around Malaysia, I feel there is a hole in my garage that the R3 might fill.
Truth be told, a while back I hired a HD Road King for a couple of weeks and enjoyed the big cruiser experience...but...
I got them odered when my dealer had a 20% off sale so I saved about $100 USD. I promptly installed them myself and fired the Rocket up to hear them. Nice and deep tone to them but not too loud. On March first the weather permitted me to test ride with the new mufflers in place and once again...
Think I have read somewhere that the T-bird risers are a straight swap on to the R3T using the T-bird bolts (even though they bolt up from under the yoke).
Has anybody here done this conversion? I have fitted the Roadster bars and the right position for me is almost there, just need a little...
Looking at lowering the R3R 1in using the:
Rocket III ('04+) - #1529 Front Adjustable Suspension Lowering Kit for lowering 0"-2" from
Scootworks - Triumph Lowering Kits and Suspension Accessories
and
Ikon Lowered Suspension for the Triumph Rocket III from
Ikon Shocks for the New Triumph...
For those of you that are riding '09 and up R3T's what grade of fuel are you using?
My dealer told me I need to use 91 octane, but I am not sure if thats neccesary as the engine is not high compression and its stock.
Are you all running on 87 octane?
I've been checking ads lately for a friend of mine who is looking for a R3 and I'm not seeing the same deals I found last year when I was looking. A year ago I came across several bikes in the $6-7,000 range (paid $6,500 for mine, '06 w/ 14k miles), now you can't find anything under $7,500...
Just got my 2011 Roadster, and while on the site for OPP Racing got interested in their LighTeck Quick release gas caps for the R3. Listed colours available include Black/Red/Gold/Blue/Indigo - my first impulse was a Gold Cap for my Phantom Black Roadster- partly for more visibility in low-light...
HI all, new to the site, I traded-in my 03 VTX1300 for a 09 Rocket lll Touring bike this past October. I didn't get much riding in before winter set in, so I cant wait for spring.
WOW what a bike never rode anything like it:)

I was shopping for tires and happened to notice this.
Will this work for our R3T's ?
Dunlop Elite 3 Touring Radial Rear Tire - Cruiser Motorcycle - Motorcycle Superstore
R3 Oil Temp Guage NO LONGER AVAILABLE???
R ocketl ll
LCD Oil Temperature Gauge/Dipstick
Checked with my local(Toronto) Triumph dealer - they say this item is no longer availabe for the R3? Is this correct? Does anyone have this in stock? If not, is there an acceptable similar part to fit in...
Hi All
New bike, new technology, new to forums. Been reading up on items with interest. Thought I had loads of questions but seems everybody has already been there and done that.
