    FYI: D&D Touring Pipes + Crossover For sale in UT

    I have a new set of D&D’s still in the box which has never been opened complete with the K&N air filter. They cost me 700.00 when I bought them a couple of years back when I backed into a curb and put a big ding in my set. When I went to change them I realized it wasn’t as bad as it looked and I...

    R3R wheel and tire on a R3T

    My wife and I have put over 80K miles on the three R3T's we have had and we ride loaded with a trunk and trunk bag as well. We get about 6K miles out of a tire. I have tried several different ones with Dunlap being the best at mileage. I have an R3R as well and we don't load it as much but the...

    MCCruise

    I installed McCruise on 4 rockets and my advise is to follow the instructions to a tee. They are the best instructions I have ever used. You will love it when your done. Trapper

    Heated gloves instead of heated grips?

    I have both the 12 volt gloves and the battery type. The battery type are great for mild conditions where you don,t need them for hrs at a time and the 12 volt ones are for those very cold days when your going a long ways. I also have the triumph heated grips but stopped using them when my...

    Dunlop Tires

    They sure look good and I don't think it is possible for them to get any worse mileage than the Metz's so I am going to give them a try. Trapper

    Dunlop Tires

    I was thinking of trying Dunlop D251 tires on my R 111 T and was wondering if anyone had any experience with them. I am just plain tired of buying a new back tire every 5k to 6k miles. I know my friends use Dunlop tires on their HD's and they are getting between 10k and 12k. Any where near that...

    Just rode the last six states and have now ridden in the entire lower 48

    Boog You have a great start but it looks like you have at least one killer trip to the west coast. If you can go through the Cascades to the Washington coast and then down Hwy one to at least Monterey California that is as good as it gets. If you getting that kind of mileage out of the...

    Triumph management needs to wake up

    The sad part is that the Colorado Springs had a great dealer who service was excellent and who sold a lot of bikes but because they wouldn't carry a wall full of Triumph clothes and stuff Triumph decided to remove their dealership. I don't understand the thought process because it was easy to...

    Triumph management needs to wake up

    I totally agree and just think of what could happen to the after market stuff if they just increased there sales by even 20%. Not many of those aftermarket guys are willing to put up the bucks to build exhaust systems and all the other stuff with such a limited market and not much hope of it...

    Triumph management needs to wake up

    I will quit complaining as I am sure it will fall on deaf ears. It still makes no since even if a dealer only can sell 20 bikes a year it is still better than zero. As for the all the other stuff they want the dealers to have all they need to do is set up a 24/7 web site where you can get it on...
