    Triumph GT windscreen on the R, worth it or buffeting?

    Anyone installed the OEM wind screen on their R? Did it make a significant difference or just direct the wind from body to helmet and cause buffeting? And did you think it "ruined" the naked look of the bike? I'm 5 11 or 6', depending who's asking:), and trying to figure out whether it's worth...
  2. New to the Triumph world

    Hello all! I haven't owned a bike in a decade or so, kids and work and such. Just bought a 2007 Rocket 3 Classic this week and hope to enjoy a few warm days before the harsh winter sets in.

    TC, Clutch and how it all works......according to Triumph

    I thought I would add this here as a separate thread for those interested that aren't following the clutch issues thread. I spoke with Triumph and here's how they explain things with the R 3; "Traction Control works with the computers that are looking at wheel speed, one the wheel speed is...

    Considering a Triumph Tiger 800

    I've been out and about looking for a bike to replace my highly modified, very off road worthy but not so highway worthy 650 KLR. I realized while riding the KLR on an especially challenging and very steep dirt/gravel road that serious off road riding has passed me by as I struggled to keep it...

    Top Gear - Triumph Rocket R review: does a crazy 2,500cc bike work?

    Here's a pretty funny and accurate review of our bike from the boys at Top Gear. https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/rocket-3/first-drive Bet bit: What’s it like to ride? Intimidating at first, mainly because there’s so much of it. The fuel tank is the size of a Barbadian twerking champion...

    R3 Cam chain 170 link T1143200

    DELETED as I do not want to mislead anyone. This is the correct R3 cam chain. I think the other model Triumphs may use a smaller chain in link number. I would disregard all sources that suggest they are interchangeable...

    JW Speaker LED headlamps on The R3R

    Fit like a glove; Look Amazing. There are 2 versions, the blacked-out and the chrome one. I put chrome ones. The blacked-outs make the bike look kinda blind with too dark front fascia. Performance-wise, the difference is huge with crystal visibility for at least 200m!
