A couple of months ago I had 4th gear start slipping anytime I gave her a little throttle. Felt kinda like a loose chain slipping links.
I was laid off and didn't feel like wrenching in TX heat, so I've let her sit.
Well it's a cool weekend and I decided to drop the sump.
There's virtually no...
My R3T has just turned 35K miles and I know I'm gonna have to do rear tire this winter. I service the splines on the final drive and trans output each time I do a rear tire which is usually every 6-8K miles. The splines have been getting steadily worse each time I service ( I always use the...
Hi All. Started noticing a knock from the engine the last couple of short (COVID restricted) rides.
Just had clutch changed, bike has done 80k kms, and when idling sometimes the knock is quite noticeable...deep and solid sounding. Pull in the clutch and it stops. Turned the ignition off after...
Every IPB diagram I could find showed the Touring backrest lock assembly as a single identified unit (#15). When it arrived it was the just the lock core and two keys. I"m in need of one of the two screws utilized to attach the rotating stop. I'll have a go at Home Depot on my next trip; but...
As some of you Captains aware, I bought a second Rocket Touring. The first bike I put a whole lot of "stuff" on her. Bling everywhere! I bought it as the 2nd owner, with 4,000 miles. I love this cycle as much as I could any machine... That didn't come out right... Well, you get the drift...
Hi guys. I have a quick question about my starter button on my 15 R3T. I notice occasionally that I find myself having to push kind of hard and keep pressure on the button in order to start the bike. Does this sound like a corrosion issue, or is there something in there that has maybe worn out...
I have a 2014 R3T. Did the TORS-Ram Air-Viking crossover install. Did the 12 minute tune. All with no problems. Installed a tune for this set up downloaded from the resources area. The bike will not start. After looking at different threads, I thought the tune might have gotten corrupted in the...
Bought this from a wrecker - off a 2008 model. Anyone advise how these are actually mounted? Particularly the plastic trim pieces? (Obviously the end at the forks is straight forward but at the front end?) TIA
Hi everyone, I would like to change the map to my 2009 R3T.
Now the bike is fitted with TORS (code A9600211/2 ) and the K&N TB-2204 air filter (underseat), I would like to ask you what is the best map available for my bike at the moment? Hoping there is someone who has my own components and has...
Hey all, I bought my 2015 R3T with a Corbin seat installed. Backrests for both rider and passenger. I'm not sure whether these are the same ergonomics as the standard Triumph seat and backrest setup. I'm 6' 3" tall and I've worked out that to have the bits of my back that need to be supported...
Since i'm out floating and have some free time right now i got to thinking about mild upgrades for my R3T. So far i have:
Installed:
Rivco risers
Destircted tune (updated)
LED headlights and aux lights
TORs
Bedifferent's Hand Shields
Bead riders (or boog's anal Beads)
Solo Seat with extra...
All, I picked up an '08 R3T recently. The factory fog lights were disconnected at some point do to a weird battery drain/short issue. My question is: where is the harness plug and/or relay located? I saw a female two prong wire connector/lead off of the right side under the panel, a fbut I...
I have been riding since the early 70's accident free. Until a couple weeks ago. I still dont know exactly what happened but best guess, I was changing lanes left & hitting the throttle a bit. My wife said she checked the next day & there was road debris i.e. sand & dirt. I think the rear tire...
Hello all ye learned masters of stopping.
My first questions is: What new calipers and brake lines will fit the ABS version of the R3T (2014) without needing fabrication?
Second questions: What do I need to know about doing this swap at home? I get the idea that ABS is a more...
Does anyone know the size of the bevel box drain plug - bolt size, pitch, etc. I have to repair with a Heli Coil type insert and I need to know what insedrt kit to get. I could use another size, of course, but it would be nice to use the original type magnetized drain plug. Any Triumph Parts...
I was changing the fluids getting ready for the new season when the darn bevel box drain plug stripped. It came out OK but would just spin and never tighten up when reinstalling it. I always torque it to spec at 15nm and it never tightened at all. The funny thing is threads didn't come out...
Scenario-Started bike let it run for a few minutes shut it off and went in the house.Came out about ten minutes later to go for a ride.would not start no neutral light and miles to go is blank.Everything else seems to function normally.Gear position sensor?
Does anyone have A9638031 oval mirrors on their R3T? I ask because I was thinking of getting a pair but then I saw a review on Amazon where the reviewer said the stems are too short requiring him to take his hands off the grips to see what's behind him. But he tried them on a T100 Bonneville...
