    R3T owner in Tennessee

    I have had my R3T for two seasons. Its a unique bike. I came to it in recent years from sport touring/adventure type bikes (ST1100, V-Strom 1000, Moto Guzzi Norge, K1200Rsport, R1200GS, FJR 1300 to name a few). I am surprised how well I like it. I look forward to participating in the forum.

    R3 Racing Cam Chain

    As you can imagine, my R3 engine uses much stronger valve springs. One of the things I'm concerned about is the stock cam chain. IMO better to source a stronger chain than replace the cam chain for every race. Precision cam chains which are heat treated, hard coated and 30% stronger can be...

  3. Flyscreen for R3 Touring?

    Hi all, Does anybody know of a decent flyscreen for the R3 Touring? Preferably quick-release so I can switch back and forth between my touring screen and the flyscreen when I want to. I know there's an OEM flyscreen but it looks to be more decoration than actual wind-deflecting function so...

    R3T Side Covers

    Well, I had another one come off today. :mad: Out for a little ride and on the last 10 miles from home, I coming up through the reservation. On a nice two lane road had a little car tailing me as we passed slower moving traffic. Finally decided to put some room between myself and the little...

  5. new r3 owner

    Hello all, I just picked up a beautiful 2006 R3 classic with only 956 miles about a month ago. I also own a 2000 Sprint RS, 2002 Daytona, and 2003 Tiger. I hope to find useful information here for my R3. I am satisfied with the power, I am getting used to the non-sport riding position, but I am...

    Roadster to R3C Exhaust Compatibility

    Does anyone know if the Roadster silencers/cross-over pipes would bolt up to the R3 or R3C downpipes without mods please? Not that I would want to fit cat containing silences but if some aftermarket stuff comes up for the Roadster and it would fit my R3C it would be handy to know. Thanks

    R3T Top Yoke

    For those with an R3T, how much free play do you have in your top yoke? If you grab the bar ends and lift, how much movement do you get? I've read that the top yoke can fail, resulting in excess play. I have about 1/2 inch movement measured at the bar ends. Also, for those that can check, do...

  9. New R3 in Cedar Rapids, IA

    Hello from Iowa! I'm new to this site and R3 ownership. I just took delivery of an 06 Classic three weeks ago. My only regret is winter is coming and I probably have only a few more 40+ degree riding days left. I knew the Rocket would be a beast, but I have to admit I'm surprised at how well...

    The #1 reason why the r3t does not sell well

    I have now owned my new 011 R3T for just over six months, but have only 3,000 miles on the bike due to a super hot summer. After purchasing the bike, I began to wonder why a bike I liked so much could be a dead seller in the states. Coming off of a late model six speed Harley Street Glide, at...

    R3 in Chevrolet Arctic Frost White

    Just finished assembly after paint. Anyone else out there have a white Rocket? Haven't buffed it out yet and she is already shinin' like a new penny. Changing her name from BB (Blood-n-Bone) to Moonshine.
