    R3T Makeover Pt. 1

    Taking 10 pieces of chrome to PowderTech Plus Inc. to be powder coated this Saturday. Was told they are on a 2 week time schedule - very excited and can't wait to see the results. Once these come back and I put the bike back together I will have to see what else may need a touch of powder. :cool:

    Thinking about selling my R3T

    Anybody got any idea what I should/could ask? It is an 08' with almost 20k miles. It has new tires front and rear with less than 300 miles on them. An Avon on the front and a Darkside (altimax Hp) on the back. It is set up for solo riding now but I have the original seat, sissy bar, and...

    I need to source R3T passenger floorboard assemblies

    Does anyone know where I might be able to find a set of passenger floorboards other than going to the dealer or bike bandit? I've been looking at ebay and searching for motorcycle salvage yards with no luck so far. I bought my '08 R3T set up as a solo bike and the previous owner removed the...

    R3T owner in Tennessee

    I have had my R3T for two seasons. Its a unique bike. I came to it in recent years from sport touring/adventure type bikes (ST1100, V-Strom 1000, Moto Guzzi Norge, K1200Rsport, R1200GS, FJR 1300 to name a few). I am surprised how well I like it. I look forward to participating in the forum.

    R3T Top Yoke

    For those with an R3T, how much free play do you have in your top yoke? If you grab the bar ends and lift, how much movement do you get? I've read that the top yoke can fail, resulting in excess play. I have about 1/2 inch movement measured at the bar ends. Also, for those that can check, do...

    The #1 reason why the r3t does not sell well

    I have now owned my new 011 R3T for just over six months, but have only 3,000 miles on the bike due to a super hot summer. After purchasing the bike, I began to wonder why a bike I liked so much could be a dead seller in the states. Coming off of a late model six speed Harley Street Glide, at...
  16. Headlight not working on 2009 R3T

    Noticed my headlight not working today; neither low, nor hi beam. Aux/fog lights work fine. The tiny little aux bulb inside the bucket lights up, but not the main bulb. I have the EB relay. What's typical life of bulb? Any easy stuff to try before I buy a new bulb? I've been riding since 1970...

    R3t air box mod

    Here is an idea I had for the stock touring air box. I got the idea from a guy named "Turbo Tom" who has a performance bike shop in Orange County, CA. He did the same thing for the Honda ST1300 and everyone who did it claimed a power increase. Our air filters have the same size opening at the...
