  2. Another R3 owner in cent. Fla.

    Another F.N.G. to the R3 world. Bought my 07 R3 Classic about a month ago. Just in time to get ready for the Love Bugs. Blue and silver with light gray snake skin Corbin seat (not the color or pattern I would have chosen, but, oh well). Have a 2000 Honda Valkyrie Tour and there's a bit of...

  3. Considering a TR3

    Hello R3 owners, I have been riding Yamaha Vmax 1200's since 1998 and love this machine. I have it all modded out to my likings (image attached), but I have always had my eye on a R3 for years. Power isnt a concern to me if you know the story behind the VMAX. My concerns are about how heavy...

    My R3 classic won't start sometimes.

    My R3 classic has started to not start. The battery is charged and the clock says the right time. I put the key in and turn it to the start position expecting it to light up the dials and push the petrol gauge dial around and back down and make that reassuring whirring BUT it appears to be dead...

  9. R3 touring bags on a classic/roadster

    Well I am a picky bastard and I want what isn't made. So I started a project this winter of making my 07 classic more like a touring. You know, with the hard bags and dual exhausts, just not the skinny ass rear rim or the annoying gauge cluster in the tank. Although I would love a teardrop...

    Horn Cover, R3 2010

    Hey Everyone! So, the little chrome cover for the horn at the front of my Rocket 3, under the headlights, snapped off on a particularly bumpy road, with help from my tool kit. I'm struggling to find a replacement anywhere. I don't mind if it's chrome or black, and it doesn't have to look...

    2007 r3 Classic needs new shoes

    Ok guys, please don't flame. I know there are tire threads all over, but I can't find the best sizes for my R3 anywhere. I'm wanting to run with the Bstone Excedra Max rear and an Avon Cobra front. Last I had written down was 150/89R17 & 240/55R16. Am I close?

    Saw a set of harley touring air shocks on craigslist for not much money. Would they work on a r3t. Would it be an upgrade or a waste of time and effort?
