  1. New 2007 R3C owner here from Canuckistan (Canada)

    Hi all, Just bought a (used) 2007 R3 Classic in blue/white with about 6,500 kms. (4,000 miles). I really like the bike as it has very unique 'personality' compared to the other bikes I've owned. I've had a lot of big units including a Honda Rune, Yamaha MT-01, Suzuki M109R, and Hayabusa, but I...

    Sweating to death on my R3T.

    As previously established on a prior thread, I am the proud owner of a completely stock 2008 R3T and don't like to complain about "Big Baby", she is who she is and sometimes you just have to learn to adapt if you are going to ride something different than everyone else.....anyway, that big lump...

    pipes that cross reference to a r3

    Has anyone ever tried to put different make pipes on their r3? I know Reinhardt duals for Harley flh bikes work well for speedmasters, and Americas........... just curious. Looking into my exhaust options .

  4. D&D's for R3T

    Just put the D&D pipes on my bike and did the 12 min tune. They sound really good, now I just need to go to Tulsa to get the TOR tune installed. I was suprised I didn't have any decel popping. I wonder what the other tune will do? The bike runs fine now without out it but it is my...

    R3T Triple K&N Jardines Power-Tripp Tune Dyno Results

    Took my R3T with the newly installed Jardines and a tune supplied by Wayne Tripp at Power-Tripp Performance to the dyno this morning. The results were very satisfying. A/F ratio was recorded separate from the dyno and tracked steady at 13.5:1. Don't have a printout from that device (no printer...

    2009 r3t

    Morning everyone, I picked up a new Blue 09 R3T yesterday from Pete's cycle in Delaware and road it back to CT (365 miles). INCREDIBLE. What a nice bike. Wonderful ride through the Delaware water gap. I thought the bike was going to be a bear to throw around. I only weight 185. When riding it...

    R3 Insurance

    Just recieved my annual bill for the R3, and wanted to see if it was inline with what everyone else was paying or if I was getting knifed. It's Dairyland Cycle insurance with full standard coverages of 15/30 across the board for 12 months with an annual premium of $642.60. Is that close to the...

    Larger Rear Tire for R3T?

    Avon makes a 200 60 16 V rated Cobra rear tire. They recommend a 5.5" rim, the R3T has a 5" rim. The width is 7.7" vs 7.2" and the diameter is 25.6" vs 24.8" for the stock tire. Having just installed a set of Jardines, I really could use a bit more rear tire. So, what are the chances the...

  10. 2010 t-bird to 06 R3

    Hello everyone. Just picked up my 2006 R3 tribal yesterday. Got a chance to take it for a ride and so far so good! Pre-ordered a 2010 t-bird last year. Rode it end of last season and this spring, but I felt it wasn't enough. It was either big bore and spend the coin for all the add ons...

  11. 1500 Miles in 4 Days R3T

    I left SoCal for regions north. Rode up the coast to Monterey then through the Central Valley to the Feather River Canyon up to Bucks Lake (until the snow stopped me). Did a few side trips in the Plumas National Forest and then back down the canyon (75 miles of the most delectible two wheel...

    R3 leather panniers falling to bits

    I got a set of Triumph leather panniers with my 08 rocket and they are falling to bits. The metal studs that hold the buckles and straps on have nearly all broken and last week I took them to a luggage repairer who replaced all the studs(quite cheaply). He also commented on how weak the studs...

  13. R3T Stock Pipe Modification

    Sorry, this is one of my first postings, I had not heard if anyone tried this so I thought what the hell. I pulled both stock pipes off the R3T and drilled out the cat. I stepped-up the hole to a 1" bit, it was a bit of a chore on the left side. I had to cut the elbow off and with the help of...

  15. Best price on R3Tour Ontario or New York

    Is it worth buying in the US? I'm in Toronto. It seems you usually get a better price in the US. Anything to be careful of? I saw 2 dealers not too far from Buffalo, one in Akron and another in Canandaigua.

  16. R3T seat rebuilt

    Just had my appointment with *****n Stichn here in Denver. I was really expecting to have them tear the cover off, and throw the foam out. We started with our stock R3T seat. Daniel and Brian are artists. Brian sat down and had my wife and I sit on the bike. Within 10 minutes, and after lots of...

  17. Difficult mounting Stebel horn on R3T

    Couldn't make a good bracket so held it in place behind the LHS cover and close to rubber wrapped frame member and filled doubled plastic bag with Fireproof Builder's foam behind and under it to build a nest to hold it, nice and sweet. Eventually tied it down with cable ties. Seems to work. Out...

    Tune Mods for R3T with Jardines

    I'm considering swapping my D&Ds for a full Jardine system. I haven't found anyone who has installed the Jardines on an R3T. I currently have triple K&Ns with the 138HP tune for the R3T. I'm pretty sure I will need to more fuel to support the added flow of the Jardines. Does anyone have any...

Lets see them too if you have a photo handy, I'd like to know where you got them and what you think of the quality. Don't want to spend a fortune, but...
