Greetings! I picked up a 2017 Roadster in Matte Black yesterday, and traded in my 2008 Sprint ST that I bought new. So far after about 150 miles on the R3, I'm very happy with it!
I was offered 20% off of Triumph parts from the dealer when I bought it, so I have a tall sissy bar and backrest...
hey guys,
tomorrow i pick up my new 2017 R3 from the Chattanooga dealer. it's a phantom black roadster with the red stripe.
i also have a 2017 iron stone bobber. bought the bobber 4/5 months ago and fell in love with, only it's not so great for rides over 150mi, so i needed a cruiser, and if...
I need to lower the ride height on my r3, just a bit too short in the legs to be comfortable when stopped can anyone suggest a suitable alternative to the oem
Seriously considering a 2009 R3 tour with 12k miles. Dealership owned, two prior owners, clean title checks (no wrecks or accidents). It looks really good and the price is right, $6k.
Any advice as to what I should look for when checking it out?
Morning all, yesterday was full of joy untill i opened the box...i had ordered progressive 444-4209c what recieved were 444-4038c, i contacted the seller in the UK he swore blind they were the same ie 12.5 standard shocks that would suit the job??? Upon searching there not listed for R3!!! Could...
Anyone seen these before and know the brand/origin.
2" thick handlebars for R3. Quite different to the NZ made Thunderbike bars that have a cross bar that fits the stock risers. These obviously replace the stock risers and are the biggest i have seen.
I have the 1.5" Thunderbike so...
Hi, this has probably been asked before but I'm new to the forum so here it goes. Any suggestions on lowering a 2013 Touring a couple inches? As detailed as possible including parts would be appreciated. Also any valid arguments against it? Thanks!
Meeting up with a mate to go for a bit of a blast I said meet me up at my local Triumph Dealer
so we meet up and decided to have a bit of a look around
doesn't take to long for the sales guy to spot my R3
first of he starts telling me the one about the "new" Rocket lll being a 2.5 litre ...
Gearingo gear indicators are available for R3's now and other Triumphs with 1, 1/8 to 1, 1/4" handlebars.
Triumph must have a gear position sensor in the starting circuit. I believe all R3's have them. If unsure, call your dealer and have VIN ready.

I had always looked at Rocket 111's but never really considered owning one. Till 6 weeks ago while doing my usual and scanning the Salvage auctions for cosmetic only insurance write off bikes ( I have purchased and rebuilt around 40 bikes) there i was my first R3. Its now in my garage, Problem...
I'd like to buy a sissy bar/ luggage rack (ideally the tallish one) for my 08 R3 standard. I figured I'd check to see if anyone was looking to sell before springing for one of the new ones from Triumph.
Just got myself an 06 classic yesterday and rode 320 miles home, couldnt be happier. Ive been creeping around the forum reading as much as i could for the past few months with my sights set on a rocket and it is ever so true to its name. Im coming off of a suzuki savage ls650 single cylinder...
I've finally received the R3 I bought from a dealership in WI, and it's had a fair bit of work done to it. I figure it'd be great to get more info if the previous owner happened to be a member. Anyone recognize their old bike in this pic?
Looks like they do a twin muffler for Tourings too, see link at bottom of page.
