    Hi everyone, new first time Triumph Owner

    Welcome from the PNW. When I picked my 25 GT last year, the dealer said both the binders and the manuals were being phased out for online sources. He was surprised to see I had a manual... so it looks like you may be stuck with online only. Oh, when your at your bike next, make sure your...

    Found good extended risers!

    Which one did you go with... I found several of them on Amazon's... 7/8" dia bar with 2" rise and the 1 1/8" dia bar with 2" rise. I am liking this route better than the other simply for ease of installation and better positioning.

    New 2.5L owner, things I hate about the motorcycle.

    Sounds like you should have bought a goldwing.

    Did anyone elongate the rear mud flap?

    Where did you get the fender and can you post up more detailed images of its connecting points (front and back please).

    Designing a new rear fender - winter project

    Blacken it with heat shrink tubing. I have done this with other parts over the years and it holds up well. Found this post and read through it...**** this is some really nice professional looking mods that follow Chip Foose philosophy... it should look like the factor designed it to be there...

    Pulled the trigger on R3 Storm GT yesterday...Not too impressed with dealer about options to add.

    100% agree with everything you said about barkbusters. On my 89' TransAlp they have been life savers. The Rocket is an odd creature in looks and performance. It's a hyper cruiser that looks retro and futuristic at the same time. I bought mine after a lifetime of Superbikes, hyperlinks...

    Pulled the trigger on R3 Storm GT yesterday...Not too impressed with dealer about options to add.

    I opted to keep the existing bar ends, (they come with their own) and used an alternative mounting bracket from Amazon (see image) as I didn't like the looks of the bracket going over the top of each reservoir. They do well for deflecting wind around the hands...sonsome warmth in cooler...

    Anyone have a black bezel? Update, got it and thank you!

    That's what I am going to do... but with the arm broken off, it is only a spin fit at this time...hence this post.

    Anyone have a black bezel? Update, got it and thank you!

    ... looked at them and I am painting to match a new scheme on my 25'. Sadly I learned that when reattaching it, it is possible, with very little effort or skill, to install them in such a way as to make it impossible to correct without breaking the mounting arm.

    Anyone have a black bezel? Update, got it and thank you!

    UpdateI: thank you to the member who reached out with one! I was wondering if anyone has one black bezel for years 2019 (part diagram #3) and up they would like to sell? I can go oem, but would like to keep money in our group first. Thanks

    From Romford to Istanbul | Intrepid adventurer completes 2800-mile trip aboard Honda SS50 moped

    There is a couple on the adventure rider forum a few years back that toured the world (50,000km) on Honda 50s. They chose a bike that they could find parts basically anywhere in the world they went...and they were right!

    Pulled the trigger on R3 Storm GT yesterday...Not too impressed with dealer about options to add.

    Welcome from Eric in the Pacific Northwest. One mod to consider is the powerbronze hand guards. Not from Triumph but a quality aftermarket from the UK. I found them to be useful is keeping hard rocks and bug strikes from my hands. I was able, using their kit too until them upside down which...

    Bolt on GP (reverse) shift UPDATE

    So I am never satisfied with a solution until it performs like a factory installed option. I have an earlier post about how GP shift is possible on the Rocket 3. However, after a few days of riding, I was not satisfied my earlier version was the best. I am firm beliver in factory/aftermarket...

    Kickstand upgrade...the cheap and easy way.

    This foot stand is about 1/8" or roughly 3mm.

    Kickstand upgrade...the cheap and easy way.

    It was simple grinding of the top plate to match the profile of the kickstand. The bottom plate is aluminum as it the top plate. I don't want to make assumptions that everyone has or can access the tools necessary. I got yelled at over assumption of what people have as I posted builds on...

    Kickstand upgrade...the cheap and easy way.

    In keeping with my slow progression of mods to my 2025 GTS... this was the kickstand upgrad. To date, the only after market part for the kickstand is from Xray in Italy at $100 usd. I took the measurements of the kickstand ~ 1"x2" and the tiger 900 kickstand most closely matches it. On Amazon...
