r3t

Guys: I'm breaking in my new R3T and it's hard to tell how tight I'm revving the engine. I'm not coming near the redline, nor am I lugging it, but I'd sure like to have a tach to refer to. I've driven manual transmissions all my life and I drive much more by tach than I do by speedo. I've...

Well it appears that I've outsmarted myself this time. Awhile back I picked up an Odyssey PC625 battery. Its a tight fit, and a bit taller than stock but it fit just fine. Today I received my new Corbin Saddle. The Corbin comes with a bracket that attaches to four holes in the frame, just...

Does anyone know if there is a link to an online R3T service manual anywhere? Have found a few for the R3's but as almost everything is different on the Touring I'm assuming there's a separate manual for it? :confused:

For all you R3T owners out there I would like to ask a few questions. As you know when I get done with my work overseas I am probably (90% sure) going to be going in for a new R3T. I would like to ask is there any accessory that you bought that you would probably not recommend getting that...

Hey guys, I traded for this car yesterday and when you can't ride the bike it is an excellent substitute, it takes off like a rocket and with a few inexpensive mods I can get it to the mid 12's in the 1/4 mile. It drives great and has a kick ass factory stereo with 13 speakers and over 500...

Guys: I'm considering changing the bike I am buying from all black to the black/red combination. Can anyone tell me - is the red a bright red or a more muted red - closer to burgundy? In other words: Is it strawberry soda or cabernet sauvignon or something in between? The photo on the...

After giving the idea a lot of thought (not much else to do over here but to work and think, sleep and eat) I have decided...for now (which means I could change my mind but I doubt it) that if the new Gold Wing isn't "all that" that if/when I get the new Triumph it will be the the R3T. I...

I've pretty well decided to get an R3T, if I can find the one I want for a price I'm willing to pay. However, I'm probably going to be looking for an 08 leftover, so I'd like to see a listing of all SB's applicable to that bike, so that I can question the dealer as to whether they have all been...

I have been thinking of going Darkside when my metzler wears out and was wondering if anyone knows the tire size needed. I figure the designation will be different for a car than it is for a bike. Anyone running a CT on an R3T? Some info would be helpful.

I was wondering if anyone else out there has had this issue or just me. I bought my 2008 R3T brand new in March 2008. I had the heated grips installed shortly after but after less than 5000 miles the throttle cable broke off the grip and I had to limp home at idle speed. Triumph replaced them...

Has anybody fitted an HID kit to their R3T? Was the install straightforward? did the ballast fit in the headlight bucket? Thanks in advance guys, tried the search function but failed miserably :(

I just got back from a ride on the new seats. A few things I've noticed so far..... 1. If you have the quick release sissy bar, it will be **** hard to put in on or take it off with this new seat. It's much wider than the stock / long haul. 2. The wings on the sides are a bit uncomfortable...

Sorry, I'm new. I've looked around the site for info on a tach for the R3T, but haven't found one, other than some micro-something. Does Triumph offer one? Can one be added like you can from HD for a Road King?

Well after sneaking looks at at the R3owners site for the last few weeks, I broke down and bought a new '08 R3T. Still have an '04 1150RT, along with a '70 Norton S sitting in a box waiting shipment to New Zealand. Went through a knee replacement last year, and can't get my foot on the RT's peg...

Gentlemen, I am at the crux of a situation... I am thinking about putting a Turbo on the R3T. Does anyone out there think that it might not be mechanically sound with a stock set up; or have you ran into any issues? I have a tune from Wayne that takes it up at least 5 notches (this is above...

I ordered a set of Raask slip ons for the R3T. They've been shipped from Sweden. Should be here within a couple of weeks I'm told. SO looking forward to getting them on. I think I'll do the 12 minute tune first then make an appointment to have the TORs tune installed at the dealer. Of...

I have looked through the dark side section and searched the R3T section for info on darksiding the R3T. I have gleaned the the standard takes a 225/55 to 235/50 car tire in place of the 240 section bike rear tire. The R3T calls for a 180/70/16 so what does that equate to in a safe car tire for...

The standard R3 tunes have 4 ignition tables named I1, I2, I3, and I4 and I understand what each one is for--I1 is for neutral, I2 is for first gear, I3 is for second gear and I4 is for gears 3 - 5. Now the R3T tunes also have 4 ignition tables, but they're named I1, I2, I(TP), and I(MAP). Does...

I'm curious about this "Cat Delete" I've heard folks mention. Has anyone removed the cat from their R3T? If so, what did you use in its place? I'm sure you could have some pipes custom made to route the exhaust from the header to the mufflers, but are there any off-the-shelf products designed...

I found a MOST useful feature on my R3T the other day. I was on the interstate and decided to stretch my legs for a few minutes so I rested my heals on the front of edge of the floorboards. Man, it was like someone put a portable heater on the seat and faced it toward my face. The hot air...
