Hello Folks, it's a pleasure to be here!
I have one (maybe newbie's) question: can we use the port on the left of the windscreen's base to connect a battery charger/tender for storage of the Bike or should we go straight to the battery itself with the usual Industry standard 2-pole SAE...
Hello my name is Ava8harrierusmc1 and I'm acquiring my friends Rocket III Touring in March of 2021 for $6000 and it only has 8000 miles on it. Now you have to understand my friend what he does is he goes to the dealerships and buys the bikes that are new but have not sold and they may be 2-3...
Hey all, I'm loving my new Rocket so far, but I'd like to find a way to increase comfort at freeway speeds (70+ mph). I'm a pretty tall guy and with the upright seating position on the GT, I really take a lot of wind in the chest. The little GT windscreen doesn't really seem to do anything...
Hi fellow Rocket3ers,
I pinched this off facebook so for those who do not use facebook or do use it but are not members of the group I am.... here it is. (ulike most cr@p on FB this is actually genuine and useful)
Please check your safety recall notice with your VIN. Triumph have issued a...
Hello there, I am a lover of big engine bikes, and I am here to learn from you all out there about the new 2020 Rocket 3.
I am ready to pull the trigger, got approved but did not yet sign the deal until sometime next week because of many large issues published about the bike, being:

Many years of sighing and dreaming of having this miracle between my legs
I'm also glad I joined R3owners
I wish everyone a pleasant evening

I did a search for turntables and really didn't come up with much. Maybe I didn't word it right. I was wondering if anyone on here has or knows about turntables suitable for a R3 Touring. Lots out there for Harleys etc but can't seem to find one for Rocket 3's. Thanks in advance.
My brother Patrick (who rides a 2008 Rocket Classic) sent me this video he took of a SpaceX launch. He captured the launch from his sail boat at night while he was on his way from St. Augustine to Ft. Pierce Florida. The seas were a bit rough so the video is a little bouncy. At 1:47 in the...
I'm staying at the Pilot Knob BLM on the border between AZ & CA (a helmet required state FYI haha) and able, willing, and ready to ride.
Heading up rt95 again today and will probably do the Saturday ride with the local HD club to the ABATE Turkey fund raiser in El Centro CA.
Evening All
Well productive day stripping the bike down ready for the vinyl wrap to arrive this week and a good chance to see how it all goes together. Has anyone on here wrapped their bike yet?
I’ll post pictures of the progress 👍
Hey guys, Im new around here and muscle bikes, I just got a Rocket 3 and on first gear everything goes perfectly until I pull the clutch it kicks, doesnt feel to be slipping, it just kick once, and in all the other gears everything is okay, just normal.
Btw the bike just got full service on...
I've been riding for just over 50 years. The last six years I've been riding with my buddy the IdahoRedRocket3 and peeking in as a visitor so I decided to join.
I do a view video's which include Rocket 3s so I thought I might post one every now and then.
Cheers

Well I got 11,000 miles on the rear while using almost exclusively sport mode with TC engaged to save rubber. Just changed the front at 17,500 miles. But I think the second rear is going to be very lucky to get 9,000 miles for whatever reason. All Cobre Chromes. Anyone doing much better or...
