    R3 and gravel highways?

    So I'm in the planning and decision phase of my next adventure this summer. One of the routes I was considering is a ride through New England and Eastern Canada. It seems like some beautiful country and one heck of an adventure but I'm quite concerned about a 750lb bike with a 240 rear tire...

    JoseyR3Wales

    Howdy again, I had begun my time on this forum as "OzzmanR3" but I was never quite comfortable with that title. I began life on another forum as JoseyR3Wales and that has always been my preference but due to personal misgivings about content elsewhere I chose to use something different here. I...

    Looking to buy a R3T, few questions.

    I'm thinking of moving up to an 08 Tourer from an 02 Honda Shadow Sabre. Going to look at it Friday. Are there any specific things I should look for? Do most of you pull your own maintenance? Are parts and accessories easy to find? Are there after market exhaust pipes available that are...

  7. Does the 2011 R3 Touring (ABS) come with a bunch of accessories like on the 2010?

    The 2010 R3 Touring that I was looking at yesterday was in solid black, and comes with a lot of extras that would amount to a pile of money if one was to buy it from their catalog. The biggest knock against this bike is that since it's not a 2011, it doesn't have ABS, apparently the 2011s...

  8. Question for R3 owners: How big are the R3 Touring saddlebags?

    Hi, new guy here! I was looking at a Rocket III Touring bike at our local Triumph dealer today and was looking at the hard saddlebags, they seem quite roomy, almost look identical to the ones on the Yamaha Royal Star Venture. But I happened to stumble onto this here web page: Saddle Bag...

  9. R3T Staintune Exhaust Question

I have a question about the exhaust sound. Of all the downside features of the R3 (Touring or otherwise) for...

  10. 2011 R3T Black/White

    Got rid of the Yamaha 1300 tourer for a brand new 2011 R3T Blk/Wht about a month ago. Liked the Yamaha and have owned several, but love the R3T. Lots more power and easier to ride. I have read several threads on the forums and learned a lot about upgrading the bike for sound and performance...

    R3T Transmission problems

    The Rocket started jumping out of gear Sunday. Just happened every now and then. Annoying! Yesterday road it to work. It would jump out of second, fourth and third. Would go into neutral (or false neutral) when shifting 1-2 or 2-1, 3-4 or 4-3, 4-5 or 5-4. Once in gear, I would be driving along...

    Baggers Magazine R3T Test

    The December issue of Baggers Magazine contains a feature length test of the R3T, garnered over a 3,300 mile trip. The review is very objective and positive. the only real drawbacks identified were the heavy throttle and lack of cruise control and the lack of ABS, while noting the very...

  16. Valk vs R3 ?

    New guy here...at least to R3's. I came out of Valkdome and rode one for several years, both single and doubled up all across the country. The nice thing about the Valk was dependability...in the three years I owned one...gas, oil, breakpads, and tires was it! (Well except for low milage and...

    Just got the backrest, luggage rack and all hardware. Ordered through my dealer's website on Thursday, received a week later. Lots 'o pieces... a bit like IKEA.

  18. New R3T'r in Eastern Mass.

    Traded a VFR (my 3rd) on a 2009 R3T in August and could not be happier. Great as expected on the 400 mile day but perfectly manageable as a commuter into Boston as well. I have not seen another on the road yet...

    R3T Pannier Liners

    Guys: I'm in discussions with a company about making some liners for our R3T hard bags. While they haven't asked, I'm wondering how many here might be interested in a set of such liners. Any interest?

  20. New R3T owner

    Happy owner of a new 2011 black / white R3 Touring. This is my 6th Triumph since 2000. Had 3 2000 / 2002 Thunderbirds, 1 2007 America, 1 2010 Thunderbird and my current R3T. And had 5 2000 / 2007 Harleys scattered thru there. Will never have another Harley or the " Harley lifestyle crap "...
