Last trip to WV we discussed requirements for the 240 Carpenter bike, some said 93 octane, some said 90 i said 87, just in case i used 93 on the way back.
When i got home, i called Carpenter and talked to Bob Carpenter himself, i asked him all the questions i had, this is what he said...
Hello all!
I just purchased a new to me 2015 Rocket III Touring with 27k miles after my previous bike was totaled after getting rear ended.
The bike has been meticulously maintained by the previous owner, and I am so excited to get to riding it!
The Rocket has been my dream bike for so many...
So I bought a bike that the last owner modified with forward controls and I hate them. Does anyone have a set of stock rocket roadster mid controls they would be willing to sell. I'd greatly appreciate any help with this.
Thanks
Just rid'n- that's all...
A Busa guy let me go by as he was leading some slower friends on The Snake. Then, he decided to catch up. For the record- I am not saying anything here about the comparative merit of these two bikes, or riders, and I don't think either of us was trying to push all that...
How do you disable ABS on the Rocket Roadster is all I want to know. I don't want questions as to why, or horror stories as to why not! If it can be done I just want that information only, without me having to explain why I want that! If you absolutely need an explanation, here goes. BECAUSE I...
I recently purchased a 2021 Rocket 3R with 75 miles. Love the bike so far, it now has about 900 miles. I’m a big guy and have been looking for a non HD cruiser-ish that would fit me. The Rocket definitely fits the bill.
I've finally taken the leap from my thunderbird to a rocket, Ive got the 2013 touring with black/white paint, pics to come... The factory fuel map was replaced about an hour after acquiring the bike, and the airbox is coming next, followed by the secondary butterflies. what other basic starter...
Hoping someone can send me some direction on where to splice into wires for light/brake/turn signals. And if anyone can provide triumph wire colors for these I’d appreciate.
Hey y'all.
I'm new to the Triumph market and I've left behind a 2012 Road Glide FLTRX, 02 Intruder LC1500, 19 Sportster, and a 1980 CB650.
I got my rocket 3 for 3500 bucks, drove it home 200 miles from the guy I got it from.
I recently had my speedometer burn out on me so I've been scrambling...
The INNOVV ThirdEYE was a breeze to set up on my 2022 Triumph Rocket 3, and it's easily the best purchase I've ever made for my motorcycle. It operates seamlessly right out of the box, without any hiccups, and delivers consistent performance. I use it daily for my morning and evening commutes in...

I usually run 10 to 20 years behind any new tech so just now exploring gps devices. Being a skeptical owner with the limited fuel range it is reassuring to know where the next gas station is or the nearest repair shop.
So looking for something motorcycle friendly I decided on trying the TomTom...
Hi,
I have a 2008 rocket standard and recently got a PDM60 which came with the D’Ecosse-2102T Hands-Free Remote Key-Less Ignition kit,
I’m having a lot of problems attempting to install it,
The ignition plug is different than what came in the kit, in the attached picture you can see the top...
It's been two months since I got the bike but recently tried to check the standard key operating fine or not.
Neither one of the two factory supplied keys are recognized by the bike! They open seat cover top and fuel tank though.
Keyless FOB works pretty well. The rear mudguard left side swipe...
Howdy all... After collecting parts and pieces, tinkering and LOTS of cussing 😉, the Rocket Glide had its test flight on Saturday!!!!! I'm still waiting on the stereo adapter plate to install the deck, and I'm getting a 13" windshield, the 9" put too much wind in my face/eyes.
Also, we...
Bought a beautiful 2008 RIIIT last year, completely stock and almost showroom condition.
Absolutely in love with it and working on re-mapping the ECU.
I'd love to get a good aftermarket exhaust but having a hard time finding one.
Located in Fort Wayne, IN!
I am new to the group and came by my first R3 through a friend that could not ride anymore. I have too many questions about the bike so hopefully I can find those answers as I search through the posts from the group.
Safe Riding to all of you.
Hi All,
I am buying myself a R3-R next year for my birthday. I've had a few other bikes since 1989 and am currently on a '08 Vulcan Mean Streak SE 1600 but I'm really not into the v-twin thing.
I live in Harley infested Calaveras County, CA and am looking forward to the bike I've always had an...
Hi all. I have just bought my first Rocket 3, a low mileage 1 owner 2020 GT with some nice extras - panniers, rear rack, bluetooth kit, quickshifter. I have been riding Gen 1 VMaxes for over 20 years so this is quite a change for me. First impressions are really good, and I am looking to put...
Just thinking of putting together a list of the 10 year anniv. bikes......sort of like the X-75 Triumph registry list.
Not much more of a listing of # (1 thru 500), Name or avatar of owner, state or providence, Prev. owner if desired and years of ownership, Country, ?????
1, curious if there...
