  1. Need help finding part number for my R3

    I need help finding a part number. I live a long ways from any Triumph dealer, and the closest dealer was unable to identify the part over the phone on the microfiche. The instruments on my R3 are attached to the upper handlebar clamp via a bracket and 2 screws. There is a cheezy chrome...

    R3T w/Tuneboy Dyno Results

    I finally got the time to take my R3T to the dyno yesterday to see how the new Tuneboy tune was working. The results were pretty good, 110HP/140TQ. However the bike was running too lean (approaching 16:1), above 5000 RPMs. I sent Wayne a copy of the dyno sheet and when I woke up this morning I...

  3. R3T Tranny/final drive noise?

    Anyone ever experienced this? Doesn't do it all the time but a lot, rolling slowly to a stop there is a clunka-clunka- clunk noise. Like driveline slop. Its going to the dealer next week but I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem?

  4. R3 oil filter

    I need info on where can I order a replacement oil filter for 07 R3 on-line? Any suggestions would be appreciated, local dealer in my area never seems to have any and I am tired of waiting - . - I need to make sure that it's the same as stock so the chrome cap will fit over it.:confused: - -...

  5. R3 and Bonneville, trade back down to Bonneville?

    I owned a 02 Bonneville sold it and got the 06 rocket classic a couple years ago. Thought about goung back to the Bonneville, the weight of the R3 gets a little old, the Bonnie was so easy to manuver, but, love both bikes, but the bonnevilles do work better for around town and some day trips...

  6. R3T ECU swap

    Just throwing this out for discussion.... How feasible would it be to swap out the Touring ECU with.......say a Rocket Classic? Why do such a thing?? To find all the lost power of course! :D Would it be an easy swap or wire splice city with questionable reliability?

  7. Glowing comments from Cycle World on R3T

    Oct edition claims R3T "won going away, picked as number one by 3 riders and making all 8 riders top 3 list". :DNot bad from the same publication that did not like the standard.:mad:

    R3T Mileage with Tuneboy Tune

    Finally got some time to put on a few miles since loading the latest Tuneboy tune for my R3T. All the riding I'd done before today was to 'test' the tunes. That consisted of many zero to 100 mph runs. On my way out this morning I topped off the tank and quickly calculated that my 'testing' had...

    Triumph Aux lights for R3 touring, parts missing

    Just FYI, I just got off the phone with Triumph. I made the mistake of not checking to make sure all the parts were in the box before installing my new light kit. (A9938085) It seems that Triumph left out the second wire harness for the light bar. According to them, this is a not the first...

    R3tobe is now BlueStreak

    Ok Captains, with the help of Tom, I've had a name change. When I joined , I had yet to get my Rocket and I was "R3ToBe." Since I got my Rock a few weeks ago, the "ToBe" didnt work any more. Since I got a blue and aluminum classic, I thought BlueStreak would work well. All of my posts that...

  15. noisy gearbox R3?

    Evening all, is it my mount or do all R3T have noisy 'clunky' gear changes in the lower 1-3? I have had it just on a month and have done 600kms only but have thought gear changes noiser than anything else I have ridden. Regards Carey

    Avon Cobras on the R3T

    I recently replaced the Bridgestone Excedras on my R3T with Avon Cobras. I got about 5500 miles out of the Bridgestones. The tires were just down to the wear bars and could have given another thousand miles were it not for the weird handling. At speeds under 25 it felt like a tire was flat. I...

    I'm about to buy my first R3, but does anyone know when the 09s will be out? Anyone heard of any changes to them? Should I wait for the 09 or go for the 08? Thanks!
