    Red Haze R3's

    Look at what I saw in my dealer today :eek: Further investigation reveals that they did the paintwork themselves, but they look really cool (maybe a bit too black on the tank?)

    R3 Fairings

    While at Daytona bike week, I met some guys from Wide Open custom fairings. For the price of a corbin, you can get these with a Jensen marine cd player, and 4 four inch marine speakers. I mean these puppies scream. The only problem is, they make them for many models except the Rocket 3 with dual...

    Cheap R3T Mufflers

    Was looking around on ebay and found a new oem set of exhaust for a R3T for a pretty cheap price from the OKC dealer. I called them and asked about them and they informed me that they were a up grade from the factory oem mufflers and would require a re tune. Starting bid with no bidders as of...

  5. D&D exhausts for R3 tourer

    Anybody had any experience with these? They offer K&N filter and exhaust package. Reflash required from dealer. How is sound and performance? What about decel? Popping and such? Finally if all is well, where is best price? I have D&D on my Victory and they are top quality, but expensive.

  6. GiPro on a 2009 R3T

    Once I located the proper coupling, the install was easy. Grounded it to an existing ground, and spilced red side to a switched hot wire. Gear indicator works flawlessly, but I did have to go thru the "learn" process. Also very easy. Only disappointment is that performance-wise, I can tell no...

  7. Lowered R3R & DS

    Is anyone running a lowered R3 & DS? Any problems? Thinking of running DS, but have the bike lowered about an inch in the rear (vertically challenged) and was wondering if there is still clearance.

    R3R spark plug wire

Soooooo, I called my dealer who is 60 miles away and asked them for a new...

    Gear Backlash on the 2011 R3R

    2011 Rocket Roadster Has anyone ever heard a dealer talk about Gear Backlash in the transmission. When I roll on the throttle in 5th gear at 120kph pulling 2800-2900rpms there is a notiable clunking sound that is felt in the foot pegs. This clunking will go away once the rpms creep above...

    Now I'm a Texas R3owner

    I've been on the forum for a couple of weeks, mostly whining about the lack of matte black R3Rs in Texas. Now that I'm an owner (got the black:)), I thought I might introduce myself. I am 53, live in League City (south of Houston), Texas with my fair princess and three Brittany dogs. I've been...

  15. Best way to lift R3T?

    I have the Harbor Freight MC lift, and have used it in the past on other bikes. However, on my new (to me) 2009 R3T, using my lift would invilve lifting by the crankcase/oil pan. Is the metal robust enough to be lifted that way? I have seen "lift brackets" by Flip, but cannot see how the front...

    Any R3T's with Jardines in or around Michigan?

    Thinking real hard about putting Jardines and an underseat K&N filter on my R3T, but would like to hear them in person first. Does any one have them? I'll ride out to listen or meet up with some one. Any excuse for a ride! Thanks, Rich

    Tighten mirrors on R3T

    Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with tightening the mirrors on the R3T? Where the mirror stalk mounts into the bars they sit in some type of friction bearing, unfortunately the LH mirror is a bit too loose and tends to move back at highway speeds, particularly in any kind of...

    R3T Anti-lock brakes (ABS)

    I'm still struggling with why the Roadster has them and the heavier Touring model doesn't. Any comments?:confused:
