    Harley Fatbob headlights on a R3

    Hey all I know i know bloody harley parts and all that bla bla :rolleyes: But i have always had a liking for the look of the headlights on the Harley Fatbob and thought it would be a cool look to put them on the Rocket . I think the fatbob lights are actually 1 piece and only one eluminates on...

    German r3 site

    Just wondering if anyone here belongs to the German R3.Org site ? I'd like to purchase a t-shirt from their 2012 Treffen (whatever a Treffen is :o ) Sent an email to the fella that's supposed to be handling the merchandise. Obviously i don't sprekenzee Deutch (only know that from Hogans Heroes)...

    Primacy lc radial tire for r3t

    Hi, :) I am new to R3 and I have just bought a 2008 R3T. I have owned a number of rides since 1978 and my last was a Kawasaki 600 Ninja. I was all set to buy a Goldwing…something I had fantasized about for the past 30 years and the Goldwing “Deals Gap” video :eek:(Google it) made me crazy to...

    R3T fuel

    I have been burning premium (91-92 octane) in my R3T as recommended by my dealer. I have noticed R3 captains burning regular. Any R3T captains using regular? Not that I am cheap:-) but would this not adversely affect the machine?

    Which tachometer can be used with R3T?

    Has anyone tried any specific brand of tach? Most of the manufacturers can't tell me if theirs will work on a 3cyl. Does anyone know if the Rocket uses the "waste spark" ignition (which fires each time the piston is at TDC, once compression and once exhaust) or is it the traditional system which...

  12. 2003 Vulcan vs 2012 R3R

    Looking for opinions.. I sold a 2003 Vulcan 1500cc classic with the thought of buying a Vulcan 2000cc classic. I did some research and found that the Triumph Rocket 3 Roadster is a real bad ass. My question is about the Triumph handling vs the Kawasaki. I want to know about its handling at low...

    LIft points on the R3T?

    Looked at a great motorcycle lift today for $400.00. They guy demonstrated on a Harley and then a stratoliner both having frame bars at the bottom. He wanted to lift my bike with it but with no rails I wasn't comfortable using the bottom of the motor. Has anyone here used one of these lifts on...

    New Owner of '06 Blue R3

    Just got my tag today for this beast and took it to work. Nice and smooth, but quiet as a churchmouse. I will scan the site to see about makin it a little more throaty. How big is the reserve tank? I went 20 miles on it and could only put in 5 1/4 gallons, was expecting to put like at least...

    Better tune for R3T?

    I am running Jardines, triple 2780 K&Ns, and Tuneecu 20368. I get tons of popping and backfiring on decel, but that was the only tune I found for a Touring with aftermarket pipes on the Tuneecu site. It runs much stronger, but I am concerned it might be overly lean. I am planning on doing a...

  18. Is these a custom r3 rim maker

    I have been thinking of ways to make my r3 more tour/road trip friendly. Tires alway come to being a issue with our off rim sizes, and choices. Is there a company that custom makes rims for R3 that could get me into a 240/18 rim. Harley builders use 18 inch rim, there are many choices in tires...

    R3 vs. M109

    I watched a YouTube clip of these two drag racing. I was a bit surprised to see that the two were pretty close. I was also amused to see the Corbin bag lids on the Rocket deploy like aircraft flaps. Lol

    R3T Transmission Trouble

    My 2010 developed transmission trouble about two and a half weeks ago. It started out as difficulty finding neutral and kept getting worse until about two weeks ago when it started missing shifts, going into false neutrals and jumping out of gear into false neutrals. This happened either when...
