  2. Rocket III shocks

    Greetings everyone. I am trying to replace my rear shocks as the ones I bought the bike with are worn out, any bump I feel it all along my spine 😂 So, I turned to progressive suspension (I carry a 412 now) to buy new shocks, BUT! There are only se 430 model on 12” (430-4234b/c) and the page says...

  4. Where does everyone shop for their rocket roadster parts?

    I see amazing bikes in the gallery, but I don't know or can't find where some of y'all get your parts from. Like the triumph branded floor boards or hard saddle bags, chrome plate for radiator. Is there like a secret Triumph shop that I'm unaware of?

  6. Top Gear - Triumph Rocket R review: does a crazy 2,500cc bike work?

    Here's a pretty funny and accurate review of our bike from the boys at Top Gear. https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/rocket-3/first-drive Bet bit: What’s it like to ride? Intimidating at first, mainly because there’s so much of it. The fuel tank is the size of a Barbadian twerking champion...
  7. wheel alignment on a 2016 Rocket 3 roadster

    There is an adjustment bolt on the right side back of motor. I know it has something to do with motor/ rear wheel alignment. Does anyone know how it works. No one knows!?
  8. 2007 rocket 3 classic exhaust upgrade

    Hi guys, I've been reading through a lot of posts and the majority of which have been US guys. What I'm after is an idea of cost in the uk. I have owned my bike for 5 weeks having come from a kawasaki vulcan 900 and took the baffles out which produced a nice sound and want to achieve the same...

  12. Einar's Rocket Upgrades

    Awhile back I posted some pics of my Aussie friend's new R3 that were taken in the shop where it was to be customized. I received photos of the beautifully completed modifications and Einar asked me to post them with his comments. I can't recall if I had mentioned it previously but several...
  13. New Rocket 3 owner!

    Hello!! Last week I have been for a test ride on the new Rocket 3. What a machine! Until now I was driving a KTM Super Duke R. Lovely bike but I was looking for something more comfy and laid back. However, I still wanted the buzz of the torque. I found a Phantom Black in stock and picked it up...
  14. LSR Rocket 3: The Beginning....

    Howdy ya'll!! This is the start of the beautiful adventure of turning an unsuspecting, early model Rocket 3 into a proper LSR (Land Speed Racing) machine. In true Spaz fashion, I've done this completely bas-ackwards and thrown together a rather ugly starter kit for Bonneville Speed Week 2020 to...

    Hi, I bought my 2020 Rocket III R two weeks ago and instantly found two light showing up on the TFT screen. The wrench light went away when I changed the date and made it current. But the tire pressure light stays on the screen and keeps on saying “check manual, tire pressure sensor”. I have...

    I was riding to work the other morning and saw a bike up ahead. I rarely encounter any other bikes on my 25 mile trip. When i caught up, it was another r3! What are the odds down here where the nearest triumph dealer is 350 miles away. Black rocket. Mine was blue touring. Contact me on here. Id...
  18. Ooh man do I love that Rocket III engine!,

    I build oddball sports cars (you can see what I'm up to at KineticVehicles.com). I have one now that gets 100 mpg, it's powered by a three cylinder turbocharged Kubota diesel and the R3 mill would fit right in there. So I bought a 2004 model that had been rear ended, I've ridden it around for a...
  19. New Rocket Purchase.

    I have to vent. Last week some of you guys know that I bought a second Rocket Touring. I'm lucky to have found my new ride. Price was great, and the bike has very low miles. My complaint is with my State. Michigan's Secretary of State ran for, and won, under the idea that during the day...
  20. 2020 Rocket engine guard heat.

    The right side of the engine gets pretty warm during summer riding season, so to cure 90% of the heat I did the following. Removed the stainless steel heat shields from all 3 headers and lined the insides with exhaust header wrap using silicone gasket sealer as an adhesive. I cut the heat shield...
