    Touring seat vs touring seat with backrest....

    G'day, I have just bought a new-to-me R3 2005, it has the gel touring seat (without the backrest hole) and the seller also has one with the backrest hole in it. They look identical apart from the riders backrest hole. This is what's on it: This is like what he has (with rider's backrest)...

    SEAT WILL NOT CATCH

    Hi folk. I've got a standard seat that has 2 latches, one under the pillion and the other forward of that. The back one clicks in, but is not lockable. The forward one is the one that I should need the key to unlock. For the life of me, it won't click in. I've tried all sorts. Pushing down and...

    Seat Cover for GT - Found

    Public service: The Saddleman, Rain Cover R913, pn 0821-0430, fits really well on the GT, including a pocket for the pillion backrest. Cost is silly, like most things - $35. Just ballistic nylon. But, it DOES fit nicely. That is all.

    Solo seat project

    Been gifted a classic long haul tourer seat A9078164 with adjustable riders back rest. Parts for R111 classic. Has anyone gone to the effort of cutting this down to a solo and modifying fabricating the plates to fit a 08 R3T ? See a lot of straight up no in forums but question is; is it doable...

    Mustang seat

    FYI...There's a great deal on a new Mustang seat for Rocket III Touring at Dennis Kirk right now. I think it may be a new-old stock item. I passed it up because I wanted a backrest, and this model will not accept the backrest. Although after I ordered my Mustang, I saw a backrest on Temu that...

It was an event that happened in the UK where a club was opening up their Rockets on an old landing strip. I noticed one of the participants in...

    Rocket 3R Sport Rider Seat Infill

    Installed this seat infill this weekend and noticed there was some imperfections in the clear coat where the old pillion rested. Nothing bad, you can't see it unless angle of light is just right, but still. Wonder if there are others that are worse. Overall looks great and does show off that...

    Ordered Volcano motorcycle seat cover replacement for Rocket 3, very disappointed

    So, I decided to take a risk on Italian craftsmanship, you know, Italian suits, etc.. see how it applies to Rocket 3 seat cover replacement. So, it is basically a cover that you get, 3 pieces, and you undo staples on the stock seat, remove the manufacture's cover, put the new one in, stretch...

    Found extra space to store custom electronics under the seat - removed a component

    Was looking for more space to store some of the electronics for which I had no space. This bike has very little space for customization. So, I removed that phone hard pouch that I'll never use, and the removal created so much extra space. Not waterproof, of course, but still space. Pics...

    Corbin Gunfighter Seat

    I have been hesitant to get one because I didn’t like the Corbin seat on my Harley Streetglide, but I did it anyway. The seat arrived today. Looks great. Good position. But, I can’t get the latch to hook in place. I tried adjusting the forward movement but the pin is right over the latch. It...

    GT Seat Leather or Vinyl?

    I'm a little embarrassed to ask this, but is the 2022 GT seat leather or vinyl. I'm pretty confident it's Vinyl, but being a "premium" bike, I have to ask before coating it with chemicals. Thanks

    Footpegs and seat

    Hey guys! I recently purchased a 2024 Rocket 3 GT. I bought it in a city (São Paulo) and drove it to my city (Porto Alegre), about 1,200km. Long distances are common in Brazil. But if you do it in 1 day, highways are reasonable. I'm 1.93 tall. I also have 2 big trails that are comfortable for...

    Assist Needed: Seat Latch Part Number

    I seem to hit a weakness and messed up my seat latch. I can’t see it listed kn the Hermey’s or Eagle Outfitter triumph parts catalogues. Wondering if the collective wisdom here can help me find this for my 2023 F3GT. Picture below for context.
