    I just now received my current issue of Motorcycle Consumer News! True to the editor's word - There is a Rocket Roadster test in the June issue. The title reads, "Heavyweight HOT ROD Touring - Triumph's Rocket III Roadster vs Honda's Gold Wing F6B" This has gotta be good - think I shall savor...

  2. Will Roadster exhaust fit 05 R3?

    I have an 05 R3 with the stock 3 pipe exhaust system. I want to replace it with a dual system. I really like the stock exhaust on the new Roadster but I'm not sure if it will fit my 05. The Rocket's design has been similar since the first bike in 04, so I'm hoping they will fit. Anyone out there...

    2013 Roadster crossover question

    Anyone know if the crossover in the 2013 Roadster is free-flowing or is it restricted with baffles (or something similar)? Just wondering if it's suggested to replace it with something like the Staintunes crossover or just leave it as is if it's not restricting the exhaust flow.

  7. Leaking gear oil on roadster

    As per the picture, I have had a small amount of gear oil leaking from this chrome cap, is this just an overflow? I had my bike in the shop to have the caliper replaced in the fall, but there shouldn't have been any reason for them to change/add fluid, so not sure why this is happening...

  10. Considering purchase of 2010 Roadster

    Hi, I've always wanted this bike. The Roadster version is perfect for me because of the footpegs/controls being a few inches further back than with the other versions. I will be looking at one tomorrow. It has about 8,000 miles on it,... and is advertised as being in near new condition. They...

    Any one have photos of the 2013 Rocket III Roadster color schemes yet, other than the matte black with white stripes? I read somewhere that 2013 will offer Matte Black w/ White Stripes, or Phantom Black w/ Red Stripes. I can not find any images for the Phantom/Red combo though. Best images...

    Roadster to Tourer?

    Hello All-I am right on the verge of buying a 2010 RIII Roadster-one of my issues is that i eventually, closer to retirement, want to set it up for touring.

    Blacked out the Roadster.

    I asked a friend of mine is there any product that I could paint over some chrome pieces on my bike and later if I didn't like it I could remove the paint? He told me about Plasti Dip. If you go to YouTube and type in Plasti Dip you will see hundreds of how too videos. Mainly how to spray it...

    More Roadster questions

    Was going to buy Roadster

    I joined this Forum a few months ago to research the Rocket. I had planned to buy a new Roadster but a used bike has caught my eye. It is a 2006 rocket 3. It has about 16,000 miles and is about $7000 cheaper than a new bike. I figure with the money I save I can customize the bike. Am I making a...

    Roadster Upgrade

    I almost have all of the parts on hand to upgrade my 2013 Roadster. The plan is to install triple K&N 's, Jardine Rumblers and a PCV-AT. I have the filters, and the pipes and PCV should be in this week. I am soliciting advice on what to do next. As I see it my options currently are: 1.) Install...
