    Infamous Ignition Switch Issue

    Soooooo, went to start my 08 R3T, turned the key and..... nothing. No lights, no nothing. Checked the battery and had 12.76 volts. All fuses are OK. I ran the bike last evening and parked it in my garage until this pm when this issue started. I went to work (via cage) and upon return from...

    Let me guess, my ignition switch is toast

    So, a while back I posted about my brake light staying on all of the time. That I fixed after finding shorted wires that ran to the rear brake switch. Today I go to start my bike at work, and it starts up fine. I ride off (btw I literally had the ****tiest night at work ever, I can't even...

    Ignition switch failure/ headlight relay kit

    I've decided to be a bit proactive and try to eliminate any ignition switch failures before they happen. I'm sure you guys have got to be tired of answering the same questions over and over......... But I just want to make sure I do it right the first time so here goes it. These are the facts...

    another ignition switch question

    I have read alot of post and haven't found one that describes the problem I am having. when I take the key out and put it back in i can't turn it to on. I have to play with it alot before it works. I am afraid it will not work at all one of these times. Is this common to this machine. Other post...

    Tether Kill Switch

    Bike bandit has a tether kill switch for $29.99. Any body have experience or suggestion with where to get one for a decent price? $30 seems reasonable. The track here requires one for bikes that exceed 120mph, I faked one last time and should probably get on for real. I also need to look at the...
  6. Ignition switch connector

    I believe I have found the new style ignition switch connector. The part #s are: DJ7084-2.2-11 DJ7084-2.2-21 Also found it listed as a Sumitomo DL Sealed Series M(6195-0054) F(6195-0051) Here are links to the pictures...

    ignition switch again?

    I had the ignition switch replaced last September. I had the wiring harness for the ignition switch replaced a month later when it melted leaving me stranded several hundered miles from home. Three times at RAA6, the bike acted like it wasn't going to come on. Then, this moring, it wouldn't...
  8. F / L Switch - TunECU

    Ok so Powertripp nicely explained what the difference between the F & L table are, but... Is the switching from F to L or from L to F as I am thinking at whatever value I put in the "F L switching table? Cheers, John.

    Kill switch, or not?

    What is the consensus for using the Kill Switch to shut down the bike? Some say it's not good...others say it's no problem. Please be kind enough to state the logic behind your answer. Thanks in advance.

    Has Anyone Switched Out Handlebars?

    I have been thinking about getting the Rivco risers, it feels like I have to lean a tad too for forward and after a while it gets to my back inside my right shoudler blade. Rivco advertises that you can keep the orginal lines with some "minor re-routing". What does that mean?? Has anyone...
  11. head light relay/ignition switch bypass

    Anyone have any step by step instructions on making this modification? Try as I might, I've been unable to get any decent candlepower out of my headlights...
  12. Ignition Switch replacement denied by Triumph?

    I recently posted that my 06 Rocket has unfortunately experienced the ignition switch failure that seems to be very common among Rockets. I contacted two local dealers, and one stated that they were unaware of the problem and did not think that Triumph would replace the switch since the bike was...
  13. Quieting down the Jardines or switch??

    Hi All, This is my first thread so thank you... I have a 2004 R3 with The Jardine System on it...I am completely satisfied with the performance of the pipes, but, they are just a bit too loud for me now...I'd prefer not to put the stock exhaust back on... Has anyone tried to drill out the...

    Another ignition switch failure.

    I had another captain contact me from another town last week and asked if I would mind if he could ride my bike and see if he would like going over to the darkside. I told him sure but that by riding my bike would spoil him because he wouldn't be used to that much power, LOL. He came by the...

    Brighter headlights/Ignition switch bypassed.

    I installed that custom built wiring harness from the guy in Japan today. It uses two relays to bypass the ignition switch so that the lights run directly off the battery. I got the one where you can add a switch to turn off the low beams whenever you want. It took about an hour to install and...

    Ignition switch, will TRIUMPH stand by it's product

    I am posting this in general tech so Triumph can read it. My Rocket 111 06 model with 11000 klms on the clock has had the ignition switch fail three times. Now I am worried I will be stuck out on the road somewhere stranded due to a design fault. This makes me uncomfortable to take long rides...

    Switch Time

    My solder repair on my ignition switch has apparently gone south. Lately when you turn the key there is a dead spot and you have to wiggle the key to get full connection. Since I installed the Gipro and the Odyssey battery it has gotten worst, probably from the testing and extra juice. I called...

    R3T Ignition switch

    Anyone of you R3T owners have any problems with the ignition switch. Had a problem with mine on the Classic (fixed under warranty) and know of a few others who have had problems...just wanted to know if the switch is different? Dennis

    Ignition (start switch) problem

    Of course this happens right before Maggie valley. I'm having a weird problem with my starter. Ignition on, kickstand up, kill switch on ...press the starter button...nothing. Mess with the kick stand... nothing. Get this.... turn the blinker on.... press the start switch and IGNITION...

    Switchback

    Maybe I'll have another R3 before RAA V takes place. Just in case, I'm putting in my two cents for where we should ride. I think this video would even scare Lonzol but I'm sure Jamie does this all the time. All of you have fun in Maggieville and please be safe. Downhill Mountain Biking...
