    Pics of Rosie (my new R3T)

    Some of you were asking for pics so I took some after Rosie got her make-up on. :D I also took one of the fender with the seat off and one of the bottom of the seat for Molinoman. She may have a little meat on her bones, but I think she's a fine looking gal!

    Musings and Laments of an R3T...

    When addressing wise-guy ******-rockets, V-Max bullies, etc... - You're lucky I'm dressed up tonight, pal! - Don't make me have to take this windshield off, pal! - Anyone can run fast naked. Try doing it carrying the groceries, Skippy! When addressing Hardleys... - *Snicker* -...

    R3 Comparison

    As a lot you know I have kind of "lucked" into a dream job, working for my local Triumph dealer...D&D Cycles of Pensacola. Besides getting Sundays and Mondays off, and drinking coffee out on the floor (something I couldn't do working at Sears or the Navy Exchange) I also get to ride different...
  7. Ohio R3 rider

    Hi all, I'm new to the forum. The wife wanted me to find a nice Gold wing with a big ole "Queen Seat" on the back with radio/cup holders and probably a butler. So off I went to ebay world to find a honda, but I got off track somewhere and typed in "cruiser" and low and behold, up pops an R3.. It...
  8. Newbie to R3's

    Hey folks! Newbie to the wonderful world of R3’s. I come to this forum under odd circumstances and I hope to gain some knowledge about rocket 3’s. In summary my 69 year old father went out and bought a near new fully decked out Rocket 3 on impulse. He has been riding his entire life but he...

    Happy Happy Birthday to an "original" R3 user.

    Happy Birthday Hondax! Hope your chicken kids will let you get out & enjoy the day.
  10. R3 Engine Powder Coating?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to powdercoat an r3 engine with all the innards still assembled (cases not split and disassembled). I'm told the engine would be at 450 degrees for about 30 minutes. It's very expensive to take the engine apart and gutted for coating. If the engine can't handle...

    R3Owners is back

    Last night, after working on an upgrade in the Photo Album, the server's hardrive experienced a failure and shutdown all services. After a couple hours, the drive was working again but things were "too far gone" to rely on it. So my team spent the rest of the night replacing the drive and...
  13. R3 tires

    Beside Meztler, is there another co that makes tires for the R3? Avon maybe? Wish Dunlop made them.
  14. R3 slight backfire

    R3 runs great, 06 classic, but I still do get a slight quick backfire once in awhile, (a pitchook with quick hesitation and thats it), when at a constant speed, not accel or decel. Not a big deal, but wonder if its fixable anyway.
  15. Looking at getting an R3

    In Australia at the moment Triumph is giving away the base R3 with approx. $3000 plus worth of accessories, pannieres, etc. We are told that they are 07 built, but 08 compliant excess stock from Europe. I'm concerned that they could be coming from the countries in Europe that have limited...

    Triumph Quick Release R3 Touring Sissy Bar

    Does anyone know if the new quickly removable sissy bar ( A9758067) that Triumph makes for the touring model can be installed on a standard or classic Rocket 3? I need to purchase a sissy bar for my wife but would prefer to get one that is easily removable. My dealer doesn't have a clue. If it's...
  18. rear brakes R3

    I installed new rear brakes on my R3 and they seem to run hot on the disc in the beginning, figured cause they were new, not bad now. If I use them, after a few stops, they still do get pretty hot, is this normal? Thanks,

    R3 article on Wikipedia

    I've been developing the article on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triumph_Rocket_III and would apreciate ideas about how if can be improved further. I would like to put a gallery of a few good shots for each model so if you want to donate yours to the public domain let me know on eirajr@aol.com...

    Oil & Filter IC SC R3

    IMO supercharged R3s should have oil & filter changed more frequently than NA R3s. I just completed the first oil & filter change since my IC SC conversion at 3000 miles. Forced induction forces more carbon fron the combustion chamber into the crankcase (yes, some does get by even perfect...
