The trailer hitch will void your warranty. Triumph is very black and white about that.

that is funny, since another R3 owner had a hitchdoc hitch put on by the dealer.

Looks good. Triumph should have offered a fairing and tour pack for the R3T.

Not all dealers are created equal and not all dealers follow company protocol either. I think you'll find if you have any warranty related issues pertaining to the driveline or engine and you have a trailer hitch installed, Triumph, at it's discretion, may not honor any warranty claim.
Trailer hitches give the manufacturer a way out from under warranty related claims. I believe if you read your owners manual, you'll find mention of that fact.
Let me put it another way, I'm right in the middle of a warranty claim on an out of warranty period R3Classic. It's presently getting a complete upgrade/rebuild to the engine and driveline that's likely worth in the area of 6 grand. Now, if I'd had a trailer hitch on the bike when I took it in for service prior to this problem and the Triumph Technician dutifully noted it on the RO (which, under company policy they are supposed to do) and at this later date Triumph felt it wanted to use that as a way out from under the warranty claim, I'd have no recourse but to either pay the repair bill or sell the bike as is at a great loss.
You are grown up, it's your choice. Frankly, I could care less. All I'm stating is Triumph's policy. It's entirely up to you to decide your course of action. If you have a warranty related issue and Triumph don't honor the warranty, don't be surprised.

Rockethead,
question. Did you buy or make those crash bar plexiglas pieces?
Do they help in the cold like I imagine they would?
ok, thats 2 questions.

Flip, Thanks for the concern.
Xhdskip, I made them from some plexiglass I had, just heated a sheet up with a heatgun and formed it around the bars. It works pretty good but affects the bikes handling over 110mph
Kmutt, Thanks I used the triumph tune for the TORS and when I got Tuneboy I loaded the tune some one had for the D&D pipes with a K&N. The Lights are 3way Hyperlites from hyperlites.com
Crazyman, Thanks, I was going to cut them shorter but they sound awesome and the extra lenght gets the sound away from me and out from under the bags.
