    Triumph Rocket 3 340bhp

    Keep in mind we are talking about the 2.5 motor which from what I have heard isn't quite as strong since they lightened the engine (Still really strong but not to the level of the 2.3 motor). We are also talking about 100 more horsepower than you currently have. Just some food for thought.

    Triumph Rocket 3 340bhp

    It is really going to depend on how hard you hammer on it. If you ride normal all of the time with just a few exceptions it won't make much of a difference. Hammer on it non stop it will greatly effect the bike.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    The pipes are finished but NOT coated yet so they are not how they are going to look when we put them on the bike.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    Once the pipes come in it will get time on the dyno so I will have final numbers which I can share with everyone. These are going to require dyno time to come up with a tune to get the most out of them and make them run right. Paul used to supply a tune but because of being really far from a...

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    Paul is sponsoring the Bonneville run so I don't want to say a price as I don't know if that is what everyone will pay or not. They are not cheap. He had a week off so there was a small lag in the production of the pipe. There is still some back and forth while we get things right. Here...

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    I have one on order, I think number 1 (for sale to the public, non prototype). There have been a couple of setbacks but things are back on track and when I get a finished product I will let everyone know the results. I hope to have it in my hands in about 2 to 3 weeks.

    I had the brake recall done and it has been great ever since.

    Quick shifter installation

    I had the dealer turn mine on. It will depend on if the actuator is in compression or extension to shift up in the gears, it's different between a GT and R model.

    Do I need to install the Quick-Shifter on my R3GT?

    The quick shifter on the S1000XR shifts like a tractor compared to the Triumph quick shifter. I owned a S1000XR so this wasn't just a test ride. I love the quick shifter on the R3 and if I had it to do all over again I would. It is a blast and that is all that matters. People said...

    Dyno numbers - 2.5inch Headers vs Stock headers

    Yes, that would work or ideally on the same dyno on the same day or close to the same time, so you can get a lot more data and have the results with fewer variables.

    Remap

    I have the MX+ and I have used it several times on the bike. Works great and works on other vehicles like a champ as well.

    Rocket 3 2.5

    I have it working again, I just had to take it back to the dealer to plug it in and reactivate my quick shifter and then go through all of the settings and put it back to where I wanted. I have not had an issues since but I have not disconnected it either.

    Dyno numbers - 2.5inch Headers vs Stock headers

    I would say the data doesn't mean much because there were too many variables. To have real meaning you need to have a run, make the changes and then make the run again in a much shorter period of time.

    Rocket 3 2.5

    Then something went on with mine because when the battery was disconnected it wiped it out.
