    Thermostat removal

    Thanks for your input and advice. If I had the tune kit input device for R3 I'd try to lower the fan to come on at lower temps, but don't have the kit to do that. Is there a manual way of doing that? Without a CPU plug in device?

    How hot is too hot

    in UK 82 Centigrade = 179.6 Fahrenheit in the USA. and 88 Centigrade = 190.4 in Fahrenheit. The R3 88c thermo is only of use when the engine temperature drops below its set temperature in this case that is 88c, and the R3 operates way beyond that temperature pretty well all the time, once 2...

    Thermostat removal

    I have posted here before about my 'R3 2007 Classic' getting a little hot of late and my right leg therefore being toasted, especially on hot days. The question is what can be done about it? Is it just me or does anyone else out there suffer from this problem with this mighty engine that is 2.3...

    Thermostat removal

    Hi John. Just found this thread and you seem to have the knowhow about the Thermo. I too am trying to lower the running temp on my R3 classic. Can I ask is the new thermo you fitted a straight swap with no machiing to make it fit? You say you used the 82C Tridon Hi-Flo Thermostat PN: TT2003-180...

    Cooling fan on constantly

    Thanks for that very helpful, so where is the air bleed screw located? I know there is a bleed screw above the thermo housing to let air out when adding coolant, but I’m guessing you don’t mean that one. Took out water pump today and it’s working fine and turning freely, so I am sure that’s not...

    Cooling fan on constantly

    Thermostat? I guess that tells the fan when to come on and off, but fan is working as it should so does that mean thermo is working okay. I am grasping at straws to stop why its heating up so much.

    Hi all on this chain. Can anyone tell me at what temperature the cooling fan kicks up and spins? I want to check if my fan starts at all as of late my legs are burning a little bit to much and I don't remember that happening before, not as much as presently. Yes the weather here in Scotland has...

    Triumph Quit Ignoring Your Ignition Problems

    Yes you are correct, the R3 ignition burnout seems to be on the older models like mine which is a 2007 classic model, which I was forced to fix myself after my R3 broke down in the highlands of Scotland. Thanks to many on this great site I was able to learn how to fix the problem using an eager...

    My version of the Eastern Beaver instructions

    This explanation of how to fit the EB H4 kit is so very helpful to an idiot like me, and I mean that. I am in the process of fitting the exact kit to my R3. However I live in Scotland, (kinda part of Europe) where I have to keep the 2 small parking lights, this is for the test examiner to see...

    Triumph Quit Ignoring Your Ignition Problems

    On investigation I find that you were exactly correct about the ignition wire having come disconnected. Thank you so much for that information! In fact you got it right down to the actual colour of the loose wire, which indeed is white, as you said. Please can you tell me how on earth I get...
