    R3Owners.Net Moved to New Server

    The new server affords some improvements and benefits that were too risky to implement on the now-previous infrastructure. While the basic site structure and configuration hasn't changed, this move does utilize several fundamentally improved server operating system components, each with...

    Upgrading MAP Sensor for FA R3s

    IMO, any forced air inducted R3 should be running an upgraded MAP sensor. I'm sure most (if not all) operators of FA R3s have noticed the "niggles" or "burps" in their engine when operating the throttle through the RPM range. Some kit makers have recommended disconnecting the MAP sensor to...

    Tuning Intercooled Supercharged R3

    Our initial dyno runs produced 259 SAE RWHP for my intercooled supercharged R3, but the bike would continually lean out over 6400 RPMs. Richard of TTS recommended replacing the fuel pump with a higher volume pump... specifically the Walbro 342 (255 LPH). After pump replacement we were able to...

    R3-The Official Bike of Big Fat Americans

    I'm an equal opportunity bike lover. I've always ridden, appreciated, and loved motorcycles. Jap bikes, Harleys, Italian, Vintage. You get the picture. But sadly at an older and bigger 350lbs. and 6' 3" most bikes look and feel like toys under me now. My wife and I went to the International show...

    Intercooled SuperCharged R3

    First Ride: Intercooled SuperCharged R3 with Nev's Cams and Jardine Header I spent hours trying to enrich the "L" tables in the stock SuperCharger tune. At wits end, this proved almost impossible without a dyno. Finally I realized I had "L" tables that might be better suited to Nev's cams and...

    R3 may be for sale

    Hey guys, I don't quite know how to say this, but due to some unforeseen medical circumstances I may have to sell my Rocket. I am hoping something else may come about (concerns my wife), but I may need to get rid of both the Rocket and my Gold Wing. More details in the classifieds. If I do...

    First Mod to new R3

    I had bought these Yamaha mirrors for my Valk, but decided the R3 needed them more. They definitely fit the R3 better than stock (IMHO). Lots more to do this weekend.
