Just had my appointment with *****n Stichn here in Denver. I was really expecting to have them tear the cover off, and throw the foam out. We started with our stock R3T seat. Daniel and Brian are artists. Brian sat down and had my wife and I sit on the bike. Within 10 minutes, and after lots of...
Couldn't make a good bracket so held it in place behind the LHS cover and close to rubber wrapped frame member and filled doubled plastic bag with Fireproof Builder's foam behind and under it to build a nest to hold it, nice and sweet. Eventually tied it down with cable ties. Seems to work.
Out...
I'm considering swapping my D&Ds for a full Jardine system. I haven't found anyone who has installed the Jardines on an R3T. I currently have triple K&Ns with the 138HP tune for the R3T.
I'm pretty sure I will need to more fuel to support the added flow of the Jardines. Does anyone have any...
I want to install headlight visors on my '08 standard (duals). Thought I'd check with you guys and get some opinions about Who, What and Where. Lets see them too if you have a photo handy, I'd like to know where you got them and what you think of the quality. Don't want to spend a fortune, but...

(UPDATE PLEASE READ) Purchased an 05 R3, Have a Few ?
I have been a member for awhile now, and have been mostly reading, but now I am going to pick up my Brand Used R3 on Friday. The bike is mint with every add-on you could think of. I do have a few questions for the Long Timers Here.
The...
Hi everyone. Does anyone know if there is an inner bag for the hard panniers on the R3 Touring? I found one for the Classic leather panniers but have not seen one for the hard bags. When we go on trips it would be great have lift-out bags for the panniers.
Greetings All,
I'm a newbie. Had my 2007 R3 since Feb 09. My mate also has a 2007. He's had problems with the gears - so took it in to a Triumph dealer. His main problem was that he couldn't prove that all his serving had been done by a dealership. He's now done around 50,000 miles...
I took a Tour for a test drive Saturday. (My first ride on an R3 of any kind)
I was very impressed. I expected the power but not the smooth solid feel of the motor and trans. I expected roomy seating but not the great suspension and handling.
Overall I was impressed. My only complaint is at...
Okay guys, I've posted about this before buy now I want to try and get some firm answers.
I want a tach for my R3T. I want to hear from Captains who have successfully mounted a tach on their R3T. I'd like the following info:

Had bike now for one month and only managed to put 500 miles on her but cant stop smiling :D cant wait till the weather brightens up and put some serious miles on her.
Today my son has been out to test ride 2 Harley's, an 883cc something or other & a 1600cc street bob, sadly very disappointing. Oh my beloved Rocket3 stands proudly above them both. :p
looking for option on a c/t for the r3t size and air pressure the info will be greatly appreciated as stb is thinking bout going dark when she gets ready to change tire
Hi everyone , just wondering if its possible to lower the Rocket Tourer , if so what would you do just buy smaller shocks , If you do lower it would it effect the handling , I done a search and notice a few have changed shocks on the standard rockets but the tourer seems to be a almost...
Just wondering what you guys do to keep your R3 as new, in the past I have always used either Meguirs or Mothers cleaners and polishes, but am not really happy with them as I seem to have little success with removing the spiderwebbing; although this does seem more prevalent with Black paint...
I got the current issue of Motorcyclist in the mail yesterday - there is a RAVE review (First Ride) of the new R3 Roadster. They loved almost everything about it - Power, handling - even the mid-mount controls (though they would have liked them set back even further).
You really need to read...
Has anyone installed these on their front fender on the R3T? There are seperate instructions for the Rail and the Fender Tip. My question is, does it matter which one you install first?
