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?
want to know if anyone here knows a better way to change the rear tire on the r3t than the manuel says im gonna try to change it myself any info will be greatly appreciated
thanks
I have uploaded a pic of the connector with the contacts pulled. In my 2008 Touring, it appears the wire is RED not PINK. The only other posibility is that I used the wrong connector. In the picture is a 3-pos triangular connector. It has a solid PINK wire that lines up with a Blk/Yel wire...
I received my GI Pro from the group buy today. I think I waited a whole ten minutes from delivery to installation. Installation was painless and the directions were very clear. I had no problems with the pin removal. I turned the ignition on and the display showed the correct gear selection. I...
I was impressed with what Foran did for the T-Bird and asked what was coming for the Rocket, here is the response .....
Hi Kelly
Thanks for your inquiry

Fairing for Rocket III Touring (R3T)
According to Corbin, they apparently think their Fleetliner Fairing will work with the Triumph OEM 4.5" aux lamps. I had to straighten out their rep (via email) Sergio that the aux lamps he referenced was for the non Touring model.
I also inquired about a...
New to this site. Looks like there's a lot of useful info.
To that end, does anyone use any motor oil other than the "filled specifically for Triumph" Mobile? It is rediculously expensive at the dealer.
Hi,
New forum member here.
Does anyone have a tune for a all stock R3T?
I'll be adding slip-ons and individual filters later this year and will then have it Dyno Tuned by Piper Performance in Fort Worth, TX. Cliff looked at the TuneBoy documentation and say he won't have any issues working...
I bought this one new in March of 08 and by the time I added accessories I had spent 20k on it. I have the original and touring windshield. Also have the accessory pipes and original mufflers. I added the sissy bar with the large pad, triumph sissy bar bag, fog lights and visors. The bike...
I'm installing J&M speakers on my R3T and the installation is easy enough except for connection to a "switchable" power source on the bike. I've also installed the auxilliary lights so that connection is taken.
Any suggestions how to make this switchable connection would be appreciated.
I've searched the posts here that reference removing (lifting) the tank. They said to remove the "allen head bolt" under the "gauges". However, I removed the bear claw with the display and there is no allen head bolt (or any other bolts). There are however, two Torx head screws, one on each...
