Test rode a Rocket III standard on Saturday


Gotta agree with that, I just finished installing the Rivcos on my 08 Standard and they are rock solid, no play whatsoever.

As a note, Daryl and Crazyman both ride R3Ts. A different part than the riser for the Standard/Classic. Mine moves a bit fore and aft as well.

You can't compare R3T risers with Std and Classic R3 risers. They are very different.

The Std and Classic R3 risers are solid.

I can't comment on the R3T but my guess is that Triumph tried to clone the Road King so much that they even included the wiggle-around handlebars.
 
Classic pull back bars will fit without the longer cables as I never changed mine. Now that I will be add reversed Rivco risers to the classic pull back bars to make room for a steering dampener I will have to change the cables but hey they are easy to change.
