    Side Stand

    I had my side stand cut down to increase the lean. Had it that way almost 3 years now. Love it. https://www.r3owners.net/threads/blowing-in-the-wind-the-need-for-a-revised-kickstand.48574/page-6

    Corbin Fleetliner Saddlebags

    It was the Corbin bags, but the bag didn't come off, the door/lid came open... probably from being jounced a few times over some cattle guards faster than I should have... and/or not being completely latched. There are 2 latches (front and back). Maybe one did not seat correctly. That was...

    Corbin Fleetliner Saddlebags

    I need to carry quite a bit of stuff, due to the insistence of my wife to be prepared.. and for creature comforts. So, I really needed bags. The bike came with the Triumph panier bags. I did not like the look, or the capacity. I wasn't very fond of the stock rear "fender" either. So, bit the...

    Mounting / dismounting

    The GT is hard to get on because of the forward controls. I have a GT, but with the R pegs. I get on like you would with a saddle stirrup. Left foot on the peg then stand on the peg and swing my right leg over. Can't say it is dignified, but it gets me there.

    Options for lowering my factory GT seat

    Mean City Cycles simply said they would NOT do anything with the Rocket 3GT seat. Did not want to look at it. I found a local custom upholstery shop not too far from where I live. Noticed he had done some motorcycle seats. What the heck.. go and ask. Stopped in to get a quote. Liked the...

    Options for lowering my factory GT seat

    I just called them, and they CAN'T lower the seat on a 2020 Rocket 3 GT. The guy said it's because of the pan. All they can do is change the padding. Oh well....

    California Scientific Windshield, Anyone running one?

    Bought it, it cracked. Got a replacement, that cracked. Vendor would not refund or replace again (as per the terms). Mine was gray smoked. I have heard that the clear ones don't crack (or at least as easily).

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    It's not listed that way anymore, but, as you said, it still shows both part numbers. I need to get back to my guy at the dealership to see what he has found out about the two part numbers.

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    I took print out of that fiche page over to the local Triumph dealer. The salesman, who I know pretty well, says he will talk to his contacts at Triumph about it after the holidays.

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    There is another thread about the kickstand here: Blowing in the wind - the need for a revised kickstand I think somewhere in there said that the reason for the longer kickstand was it is a BRITISH bike, and they drive, and park, on the left side of the road. Therefore, the road is lower on the...

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    I think I will wander by the local Triumph dealer with a tape measure.. and see what is going on!!! It's very nice (my opinion) that they shortened it.

    My new 2023 Rocket GT

    And it's about TIME. I had a rough time parking mine until I bought a 2nd kickstand and had it cut down. Now I am curious. I have attached a photo of the original (too long) kickstand. Note the PN of 2082353. Can you check yours to see if the PN changed?

    Innovv K5 camera system

    I have an Innovv K3 (which has 2 small cameras instead of that big honking K5 front camera). Front camera is mounted under the headlights. Cable routed up under the tank. DVR is under the seat. The rear camera has been 3 different places. I had a Triumph luggage rack, until the rails...

    Soft luggage

    Make sure you test how the tips of those pegs will rest against the bike with tension on them. For me, they hit right under the seat. You might want to pad those tips to prevent any scratching. Also, I had to take just a bit of the bend out of the mount on the right so the mount did not hit...

    Soft luggage

    Don't trust the arms for that luggage rack to hold much weight. The stock setup is rated at 3kg (6.6 pounds), and that ain't jack. Many have snapped them (yeah, me too.. but I was using it to hold a big flag mount. I buddy is fabbing up a much stronger one now.). Here is what I used to add a...

    Air-Flow seat cover

    Air-Flow Seat Covers ( Motorcycle Seat Covers ) does not list the 2020+ Rocket 3 GT or R as an option. (They do show a 2020 Rocket III Roadster and Rocket III Touring.. which tells me they aren't really paying attention to what is out there). I sent them all the dimensions from my 2020 GT seat...
