Question, can anyone share with me what's up with the gas gauge issue? ( reading empty with light -on then only taking 3.5 gallons to fill.

  2. Best way to lift R3T?

    I have the Harbor Freight MC lift, and have used it in the past on other bikes. However, on my new (to me) 2009 R3T, using my lift would invilve lifting by the crankcase/oil pan. Is the metal robust enough to be lifted that way? I have seen "lift brackets" by Flip, but cannot see how the front...

    Any R3T's with Jardines in or around Michigan?

    Thinking real hard about putting Jardines and an underseat K&N filter on my R3T, but would like to hear them in person first. Does any one have them? I'll ride out to listen or meet up with some one. Any excuse for a ride! Thanks, Rich

    Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with tightening the mirrors on the R3T? Where the mirror stalk mounts into the bars they sit in some type of friction bearing, unfortunately the LH mirror is a bit too loose and tends to move back at highway speeds, particularly in any kind of...

    I'm still struggling with why the Roadster has them and the heavier Touring model doesn't. Any comments?:confused:

    R3T with auxiliary lights - which H4 relay?

    I have an R3T with the triumph driving lights that have the switch on the handlebar. I am adding an H4 relay for the headlight but I have questions about the auxiliaries. Do they already have a relay as installed? If they don't have a relay, will the Eastern Beaver kit with the single...

    R3T Hard Bag Liners

    I just ordered a set of liners for my R3T hard bags from TLC Products in California. They're supposed to be custom made to fit the R3T hard bags. I'll report back after I've received them and had a chance to put them in my bags.

    Triumph Accesories Mufflers on R3T

    I got them odered when my dealer had a 20% off sale so I saved about $100 USD. I promptly installed them myself and fired the Rocket up to hear them. Nice and deep tone to them but not too loud. On March first the weather permitted me to test ride with the new mufflers in place and once again...

    T-bird risers on an R3T?

    Think I have read somewhere that the T-bird risers are a straight swap on to the R3T using the T-bird bolts (even though they bolt up from under the yoke). Has anybody here done this conversion? I have fitted the Roadster bars and the right position for me is almost there, just need a little...

    R3T fuel??

    For those of you that are riding '09 and up R3T's what grade of fuel are you using? My dealer told me I need to use 91 octane, but I am not sure if thats neccesary as the engine is not high compression and its stock. Are you all running on 87 octane?
