Taking 10 pieces of chrome to PowderTech Plus Inc. to be powder coated this Saturday. Was told they are on a 2 week time schedule - very excited and can't wait to see the results. Once these come back and I put the bike back together I will have to see what else may need a touch of powder. :cool:

My friend Art just sent over this dyno sheet showing the results of the latest 240 Kit work done over at Carpenter Racing on a customer's 2007 Standard Rocket III. As you can see, the bike was shut down before it hit its 9,000RPM redline.
Just the sort of gains I expect...
I will be soon posting to Ebay the following items - Passing lamp visors, Headlamp visor, Rear fender rail and the Pannier rails all from a 2010 R3T. Though I haven't verified it I feel confident these will fit other years as well. When I post to Ebay I will post a link here and in the...
Hi Guys,
Pick up the beast on the Oz Weekend from Melbourne and get to clock some k's before heading home on the slow boat to Tassie. Plan is to drop into a few mates and the Island Classic races at Phillip Island on Saturady the 28th Jan. So if you see a bloke on a very shiney black R3 with a...
Anybody got any idea what I should/could ask? It is an 08' with almost 20k miles. It has new tires front and rear with less than 300 miles on them. An Avon on the front and a Darkside (altimax Hp) on the back.
It is set up for solo riding now but I have the original seat, sissy bar, and...
Does anyone know where I might be able to find a set of passenger floorboards other than going to the dealer or bike bandit? I've been looking at ebay and searching for motorcycle salvage yards with no luck so far. I bought my '08 R3T set up as a solo bike and the previous owner removed the...
Due to current budgetary concerns and a recent flat tire on my Rocket, I think I am going to be brave this time and try out a set of Bridgestone Exedra tires. Bridgestone makes the Exedra G701 in a 150/80HR-17 for $145.99 at Bridgestone Exedra G701 Front Tire - Cruiser Motorcycle - Motorcycle...
Help needed guys. I have never owned a British bike and have had great memories from riding Japanese bikes from the UK across Europe. I moved to Canada in 94 n had kids blah blah blah........ but now have the itch to get back on 2 wheels and fallen in love with a 2005 R3. I was on a forum that...
Totaled my 2011 Road Glude Ultra last month now Waiting for my 08 R3 Roadster to arrive.
Have had 6 harleys now trying a Triumph. Really not a fan of the V twin engine. Like the concept of the three, watetr cooling and shaft drive.
Cheers
These are not from me, but if they are Triumph's Comfort shocks someone could get a deal. Just posting incase anyone is interested. I have a set on mine and they are the best shocks I've had.

NewR3 website shows the easy start headlight control module. This I would think would stop the extra voltage going through the start button. Anyone here have one installed? I know there is a relay setup with inline fuse to keep the start button from burning out and I am wondering if this also...
