I have a 2006 classic with Corbin Beetle bags & Dual tour seat, does anyone know if the Triumph OEM tall sissy bar will work with this setup? Parts dude at the Triumph dealer says no but the Corbin site says that it will but that it is a "new" feature and I'm not sure just how "new" they mean. I...
I've looked through the forums here and scoured the web for good information. I realize the subject is rather subjective to the individual rider but I'd like to know peoples opinions on the various after-market (or dealer offerings) seat options. There's quite a bit about Russel day-longs and a...
Just had my appointment with *****n Stichn here in Denver. I was really expecting to have them tear the cover off, and throw the foam out. We started with our stock R3T seat. Daniel and Brian are artists. Brian sat down and had my wife and I sit on the bike. Within 10 minutes, and after lots of...
Hi, have just refitted and tried my longhaul seat after custom mods!! previous ride was a RoadKing with a aftermarket pillow seat , and being a super comfortable ride for pillion, I promised Wife a similar ride on the R3T (anything to get the beast in the garage) but after about a 1hr trip she...
Has anyone experienced Triumph's gel seat on the Roadster yet. Their web site pics looks like it might lower the rider a little. That would be a good thing for short legs like me.
Good Rides
Does anyone here have the Corbin heated solo seat?
How do you like it, would you recommend getting the pillion seat?
And what kind of luggage rack goes with the solo seat?
Thanks,
Dennis

Arrived today - this was a rush order as I'm importing my R3 to the UK in 10 days or so, phoned the sales shop in Daytona on the 20th March, and they made it in CA and sent it here to Florida very very fast - top marks! Got stung for FL sales tax though, came in at $454, CA and FL residents will...
Does anyone out there with a R3T have the Corbin Solo Seat? I was thinking about getting one, and I am curious about how people like it, and does it set you any further back in the seat.
i have the stock seat and mirrors for a 08 re classic for sale seat /mirrors and pass inger pegs thay have been on the bike for 2000 mile and are in great shape shoot me some offers
Before I switched to a Corbin seat I had some difficulty removing the stock seat using the key so I looked for an alternate method to use in case the key stopped working completely.
If the key won't operate the lock mechanism a long screw driver can be used to operate the latch.
Insert the...
Stopped by at my Buds Triumph dealership yesterday to wish them all happy holidays. Saw 2 T-Birds on the floor so i climbed aboard. Nice looking ride but the seat,,,, Oh my God, like sitting on a brick. Guess it to get you to buy the Gel seat they offer. Anyhow, wouldn't want to go long on the...
I am still using the under seat air filter. I will be installing a Corbin Rumble seat. Aftermarket seat pans (including Corbin) do not have the nifty air intakes built in...is this an issue.
I am considering going to triple K&N's under the bear claw...how difficult is this project?
D&D's K&N underseat w/duct removed.
Which would the best starting tune for this setup? I have the
1 20050DyonFinalMap_TOR_CatBypass now but the plugs were reading lean before I put the K&N in. Bike has power and idles after the new TPS. Now I need to start fine tuning. Thanks. kcc11
Hi does anyone out there no of a good motorcycle seat upholsterer. I have recently purchased my first Rocket iii Classic and would like to customise seat with a brown hide look!! Any ideas? Teds1 from the UK.
I just got back from a ride on the new seats. A few things I've noticed so far.....
1. If you have the quick release sissy bar, it will be **** hard to put in on or take it off with this new seat. It's much wider than the stock / long haul.
2. The wings on the sides are a bit uncomfortable...
Has anyone tried the optional gel seat for the R3T? Just wondering if it is an improvemetn over the stock seat or what. The stock seat seems OK but also seems cheaply made compared to the classic touring seat I had on my old R3.
Not sure if upgrading to the gel seat is really worth it.
So I've only been the proud owner of a new R3 standard for about a week now. Man am I having a blast. I took delvery at the dealer and the rear seat was not installed. They showed it on the floor this way and omitted the re-install of it when I picked it up.
I have now picked it up and just...
