    Photographing My R3T

    Since one of my hobbies is photography I'm always looking for better lighting, a different angle, more reflections off the pitch black paint or chrome. Here's another capture, while the bike is still clean & shiny. 1250 miles on the Beast now.

    R3T Range and gas Mileage

    I took a 200 mile ride yesterday with the distinct purpose of pushing the limits of the gas tank. Previously I'd ridden 181 miles to where the digital gauge told me I was out of gas. When I filled up, however, I only needed 4.5 gallons to fill up the tank. That tells me the gauge isn't...

    R3T Manual

    Anybody got a line on something less expensive? The service manual from triumph is like $90 ! Little expensive for my taste. But I like todo my own service and having the schematics and such is great. Thoughts?? mutt

    SC R3 with Predators

    Paul (Joker) is out celebrating, so I thought I should post his results with Predators on his SC R3. Excellent results, congrats Paul and Sam! I suspect there's one more buyer for a billet clutch basket now! ;)

    R3T alarm hookup

    I need to find out exactly the factory alarm hookup is located and how do I get to it. I am thinking of getting a talon because it's half the price. Thanks

    8000 RPM TuneBoy for R3

    Just to keep keep this forum on the cutting edge, there are 8000 and 9000 RPM versions of TuneBoy available for the R3. The resolution is simply changed so that the tables are "stretched" to accommodate the higher RPM limit. This means that if you paste in your old 7000 RPM tables, the tune...

  18. Toyota Soarer twin turbos on R3 - will they work?

    Hey all; newbie member with possibly a dumb question here. I'm not too knowledgeable on turbo information; I will never pretend to say I'm a mechanic; but happened to fall upon what may possibly be a good deal for some upgrade parts for the Beast; here's a quote from an email a buddy sent to me...
