Despite reading the manual, instead of the drain bolts I removed one of other two smaller plugs in the sump. It did a pretty good job of draining the crankcase. I assume this is not a problem; I can just refit it, maybe with some thread lock? I can't find the torque setting in the manual so I...
Sometimes things happen fast, especially around Christmas!
A friend of a friend needed to sell it quickly, offered a good (for European standards) price and I took it.
Now the Rocket has a brother in the garage, not exactly a little brother though... same weight, and almost the same engine...
. . . on my r3r with Corbin+TORs+RamAir+Tsuyaku hard bags . . .I throw a leg over, flip on the grip warmers and rumble the big triple up from a two week slumber. Back pedal out from the garage, look both ways, and then effortlessly I am on my way . . . through cedar and pine tree lined roads...
I will be installing the Ramair filter shortly .
I will eventually look at exhaust options but not in the immediate future.
Do I need to load a modified tune or will the 12 minute tune be enough.
I have a 2013 R3T and love it. Bought it sight unseen after reading Triumph Rocket lll forums. Had many Jappers and 2 Harleys. Mods to the exhaust to free it up and for some good sound. K&N Air Filter and new Bars yet to fit
Hey Guys,
I went to Ducati Gold Coast (Lawrence Drive, Neerang) this morning to test ride a R3R. Been out of the saddle for 3 years it felt bit odd and I guess I will need to spend some more time with it to get used to its handling. Apart from that, the bike felt and looked great!
Am pretty...
Selling my used black Corbin Beetle Bags. Came with the bike when I bought it last year. Previous owner put a few scratches in the side and some stone chips in the front. Otherwise in good condition. Used once this year in rain - no leaks.
Was mounted on the bike - comes with all hardware it...
Hi All,
I am looking to add 3 things on my 3 months new Rocket 3 Roadster. For some reason, the local dealer is not very knowledgeable about this. Here are the things that I am looking for information on. Any brand/product names, website links to buy from will help a lot.
1). Rider floorboards...
My Ramair arrived today. However I can't get my new exhaust until next year due to house updates, so I am stuck with the standard 3 into 2 exhaust for now. I would still like to fit the Ramair to get the space under the seat. Are there any tunes that would do the job until I change the exhaust...
I finally have dynoed with my RamAir versus Trip K&Ns. :rolleyes:
Nels says there was noticeable air improvement with the RamAir over the K&N 2780s and he had to add fuel. He was surprised the results were not better from the last Dyno and feels it was likely the very hot and humid weather we...
Evening chaps, I'm a TuneECU newbie, just ordered the cable and CD etc. I've got a 2014 Roadster which has TOR's fitted and will have the Ramair fitted this week.
Is there an existing map to suit my setup and if there is, where can I find it? Is it an easy process to do? I'm fairly IT literate...
Started the day by going on a 60 mile ride with some buddies. One of those great occasions where one of the CBR1000 riders was being an ass and said " It only goes 156mph? So that 2.3 is wasted then eh?" implying the R3 was slow...lol.
First ramp onto the freeway he very quickly learned that...
I've installed bags on my R3R and was thinking about a more comfortable seat. It seems I am essentially changing the bike into a R3T. Bags & Windscreen installed)
Any ideas on new seats to add super comfort for 2 up?
Hi everyone, this is my first post. everyone on the FB groups said to come over here...as there is lots to learn.
I'vegot about 800 miles on my 2014 R3R (got it "new" this march for a steal since its been sitting for 2 years) and it is wonderful. right now the bike is bone stock but i'm...
Hey Everyone,
I am a new Rocket 3 Roadster owner. Bought mine last week. It does not have any extras. I am enjoying the ride. Steadily, I will look for adding stuff to it as I go along. In no hurry, just researching the items now.
To start with, I am looking for protection boots and a small...
Hi guys. Had my Roadster for two weeks and although still in the breaking in period I,m loving the new ride.Coming from a Honda blackbird it feels a bit weird but sooooo comfy.Itching to add some bling. I,ve been wanting a cruiser for a few years now but thought I,d miss the power and...
My bags should be ready to be mounted next week. I am still in need of the mounting hardware. If anyone purchased their beetle bags from corbin direct, you will be able to purchase the hardware "card" from them directly.
The price one of their dealers quoted me was 210.00 plus 35.00 to...
