Need some advice on replacing the cat box with the Triumph pipes.....keeping silencers stock and all else..
1. Can it be done?? (Triumph says only with off road exhuast system)
2. Will the 12 min tune work for the cat elimination only? or have to remap.
thanks again

I received an unexpected surprise in my mail box today...the new Triumph Magazine/Summer 2007 issue. Anybody else get it? Not too much on the Rocket III, just a mention and photo of the backrest accessory now available. Nice mag...just wish there was more Rocket items in there.

Certain: A new Rocket III derivative, to be called "Super Rocket III". In essence, a standard Rocket with almost everything on it (engine, pipes, fork legs, etc.) blacked out à la HD Nightster. The tank and guards will be white, with black stripes on them. It looks like the pegs will be moved...
Want to see something rather usual. Take a look at what Triumph is planning to release/ expel.

I was just watching the Speed Channel and a Victory commercial came on. In the commercial there were some people at a drive-in, probably watching The Wild Ones or something of that nature, and on the screen there are a bunch of motorcycles rumbling along. The narrator comes on and says "every so...

Got my black and red R3 Classic Tourer in March, so far I have ~2000 miles on it. This is my first Triumph after 35+ years of riding Hondas, Yamahas, Suzukis and Kawasakis.
Mt last bike before the R3 was a Honda VTX1800C - nice enough bike, but NO comparison to the R3. The Rocket is the...
After a couple of years of fiddling with her Honda NightHawk 750 and trying to get it to be the she needs, my wife has decided to give it up and now will be moving to a 2000 Triumph Trophy 1200. :) It's not a Rocket, for sure, but they are very fast and she'll have all the luggage room she...
These are the first spy photos to reveal the final look of Triumph's new 2.3 litre tourer based on the Rocket III.
The new bike might share the Rocket's engine, but the bodywork, suspension and chassis are all new, suggesting it will be marketed as a completely separate model rather than just...
Triumph Mid-Size Cruiser Still Rumored

Maybe we could all go in together.
I don't have much experience with Triumph dealers. Do you feel you are treated well? Am I stupid to even think about having my valves checked in the spring? :rolleyes:
My dealers are an hour plus away.
