Hello there. Im a proud new owner of an 05 rocket 3 in the beautiful red. It was the cleanest most stock one I could find. So any suggestions on first mods as well as things I sould look out for would be much appreciated. In the eastern north carolina area. If anyone else is local.

WELCOME! to our R3 Family from Miami, FL. Is this your first Triumph? I'd read up on and get TunECU so you can see what map she has loaded. I'm sure others, with a TON of more knowledge than I, will be along shortly. In the mean time look in the signature block from any post from @idk for some excellent reading and information.

This is my first triumph as well as my first cruiser. Ive been a sportbike rider exclusively so ive been enjoying the change of style, even though this beast shares alot of behaviors with my old hayabusa. Thanks for the info!

Wow that Rocket has been set up as a touring model. Crash bars front and rear. All 3 Tank pads. Panniers. Sissy bar with rack.

How many miles?

Set of ramair intake and after market exhaust with a new tune and it will get a few more pony's out of her.

And welcome from Christchurch New Zealand.

Well Panda she is a beauty , modes ? I believe you don't need modes . Ride the crap out of it . Don't fix it if it don't need to be fix ( moded ) . You do modes only if it has to go into service .
