    Ideal stand for maintenance work / storage?

    Is it advisable to use a front / rear stand like these on the Rocket? Would the weight hold up? Mostly looking to do oil changes, maybe install accessories and eventually use as a solution to store the bike off the ground during winter. Don't mind incurring some upfront cost for longterm gain...

    Under Seat Storage Compartment

    What tools do you carry in that small storage space under the seat for roadside repairs? What size wrenches are needed on the R3? I’m starting with a flat blade screwdriver, small metric hex set, 8mm wrench, tire pressure gage, spare 2032 fob battery, and an Apple AirTag. Note: The key FOB...

    Tire Care during Winter Storage

    Do I need to overfill my tires while the bike is sitting in a heated garage for its 6 month nap? Are flat spots a myth with newer tire technology ? What do you guys normally do?

  5. Winter storage fuel purge

    I need to leave my Rocket III in the Pacific Northwest 'till spring. I have less than a gallon in the tank. Last time I stored it was more than a decade, and I had to replace the fuel pump and have the fuel injector nozzles cleaned. I think I can empty the tank (pull the fuel line off the tank...

  6. After a decade in storage, not getting fuel. Any ideas?

    First of all, it's not the fuel that was left in it; I drained the old fuel by removing the fuel pump from the bottom of the tank, and replace it with fresh gas. It cranks fine, has good spark (it vroomed nicely when I gave it a shot of starting fluid in the airbag, but quit immediately after)...

    Starting and tuning R3 after 3 years of storage

    Hello. New to the R3 Owners group, though I have had my 2006 Classic for a few years now (Cherry and New England White, 3200 mi). Made a mistake: left bike stored much longer than I ever imagined, 3 years, and with fuel still in the tank. So...where do I start in getting her going again? Not an...

    Windscreen Storage

    I just picked up a 2010 R3T this weekend. I was wondering if you all leave the windscreen on all of the time or store it until you take a trip. I took it off to ride to work today (bad idea, it's a bit chilly here in Michigan), and I don't like the idea of it just laying around in the garage...

    Storing Bikes in cold weather

    Hey there everyone, Just thought I'd ask a simple but important question about cold weather bike storage! So I have two bikes, the Triumph Rocket of course and the BMW R1200gs. I am currently storing them in a airplane hanger with absolutely no insulation just protection from wind/rain and...
