  5. Standard vs. Classic vs. Roadster vs. Tourer vs. Touring

    I'm pretty clear on what a "Touiring" Rocket II is. Ditto for a "Tourer". But can anybody point me to a concise comparison/contrast among the "Standard" versus a "Roadster" versus a "Classic" models? Thanks, CW

    Vibration/noise 07 Rocket 3 classic

    I just bought this bike last week with 12,500 miles from the original owner. I noticed yesterday while riding on the freeway a very noticeable whining sound and vibration from the engine/tranny area. Mostly between the 50 to 60 mph range. Any thoughts of what this is?

  7. Looking to buy an '07 Classic Tourer-any advice?

    I'm meeting a guy this week end to check out his 2007 Classic Tourer for sale. If all's well, I just might bring it home. The pics I've seen look good. It has low miles, and Beetle Bags instead of the soft ones. Engine is silver instead of black - does that mean anything? Most all the ones I...

    Standard Bars Versus Classic

    Gentlemen, The guy who I bought my 2008 standard R3 from added footboards and the cruiser seat. With those 2 add-ons, my understanding is that the only difference between my standard bike and a classic is the pull back bars. I'm 5'11" and about 170 lbs. I've only ridden the bike once due...

    I bought an 08 RIII Classic in April of 09...

    And I'm having a blast on it, but something was missing. So today I put a down payment on a '10 Thunderbird 1700. It's the ultra fast Phantom Red Haze. I'm having TORS put on it along with a bunch of other bling (CRAP, the chrome pulley is $449!) What a nice way to start a stable of bikes...

    Chromed wheels on RIII Classic - Too much bling?

    Triumph have some nice shiny chrome wheels as an option for the T'bird. Does anyone know if someone makes an aftermarket set for the RIII or a company that would strip and chrome a standard set of RIII wheels? I've had one quote from a guy in the UK who can get them from a US company but...
