    R3T brake lines vs R3R/Standard?

    Anyone replaced their brake lines with stainless steel gear that's quality and will last the life of the bike? One never knows with OEM stuff, apparently. Also, now that I've started with stainless clutch and throttle cables, the ugly black brake lines bother me. Spiegler has a kit for the R3...

    Removing R3T Heated Grips

    So after my break down of the throttle sleeve tab sans heated grip, I ordered Kury grips. It looks like the tank is hinged and comes up like a hood. How does that happen? The rest seems pretty straight forward. The wiring runs inside the grip and through the handlebar hole then connects to...

    Rivco Riser for the R3T warning

    I posted this in the Tourer section but I felt it important enough to re-post here. I just finished installing the Rivco risers on my R3T. Went pretty smooth with one hitch. If you decide to install a set on your bike make sure the bolts supplied actually fit the risers. On the stock risers...

    Wanted: someone who installed the Rivco risers on the R3T

    I just bought a set of Rivco risers and have some clutch cable questions. The instructions say to remove the clutch cable from the handlebar lever and re-route the cable but I dont see where this would work without first disconnecting the cable from the lever down below, alongside the engine...

    R3T Tees and other Accesssories

    Love the bolt on stuff, even though it's limited. Not really keen on the McQueen gear. Are there any straight forward Rocket Tees? Not the caricature steroid looking images, but more dignified Tees, hats, jackets?

    Utopia back rest for my R3T

    Not sure how to put this but here goes: I have 2 stock touring seats.I believe the one that is now on my 08T is a gel seat. I need a backrest bad and I just dont want to pony up over 500 bucks for the Triumph long haul seat and back rest. Utopia makes a rest for the classic but the classic...

  10. R3T Service Manual Link?

    I need a link to a service manual for a 2011 R3 Touring. Thanks.

  11. R3T Owners using PowerTripp's tune

    Hey guys, this question goes out to those using the specially formulated tune for our R3T developed by Wayne Tripp (PowerTripp). Does it make any difference in what type of air filter system being used. I currently have a K&N drop in. Does the new RamAir system work well with this tune. I also...

    R3T Drive shaft question(s)

    Probably a redundant question, but when changing out the tire, is it the consensus that the shaft needs to be inspected and greased, regardless of Triumph's claims it's maintenance free? Which part of the shaft are we talking about here that isn't already lubricated? The oil in the bevel...

    R3T ride vs R3R ride

    Hello everyone!! My wife and I have been riding an 2013 R3T for a year and a half now and enjoy it very much. I have not taken the time yet to ride a Roadster. Are the rides and handling the same? Are they the exact same bike but one is dressed up more? If you take the hard bags off the Tour...

I went with Federal for the shipping. All I need for it is the front crash bars and hi-way pegs and a...

  16. For Sale R3T Solo Bucket Seat with luggage rack.

    Greetings Guys, I have a R3T solo bucket seat with a solo luggage rack for sale. My R3T is my second R3, the first being a 2006 Classic. Liked the bike, but when the 2008 R3T first came out, I immediately fell in love with that and ended up changing over. At any rate, I find the dual seat...

    Jonesin' To Saddle Up the R3T

    Well, I bought my 2013 R3T back in November and was able to put about 200 miles on it before winter blew in. It's been cold cold cold but little snow this year in Nebraska. I did buy a bucket seat and backrest and am really itchin' to ride the beautiful beast. I gets harder as I get older to...

    Screaming Banshee horn kit on the R3T?

    Looking to get a horn on the bike that isn't silly. At first I thought just to replace the stock with a serious air horn but then found the "Screaming Banshee" info - it adds the air horn but doesn't replace the stock, so you can still give a friendly toot or hold the button down a quarter...

    Whitewall tires for the R3T?

    I'm not 100% happy with how the bike looks with black tires, tbh. The front especially looks chunky to me, so since it's tire time anyway I figured why not try to find whitewalls? The front is a no-brainer, I suppose - Metzeler Marathon ME880 come in the appropriate 150 with WWW - wide white...

  20. Anybody wish their R3T had more braking? PART 2

    Here are some shots of my 2008 R3T with 6 piston Hayabusa calipers. Some may have a more expensive or exotic 6 pot setup. I just really enjoy using my mechanical design background to make one-off parts for my Rocket. This complete setup ran me about 40% the cost of buying some off the shelf...
