Sorry for another PCIII question(I did do a search, so put those tomatoes down!). I have a 2005 1800N and just received the PCIII in the mail(model #: 122-411).

I too was looking at the Rocket III initially however, the only Triumph dealer in the area (Albany NY) went out of business last year. If I ever needed service, and of course I would for the first...
Thanks Spike, you made me reread the instructions. Bare calls for using the vacuum caps after removing the secondary air system, not for the Desmog portion.
From Bare's site:

Last season I purchased the TMB's for my 1800N and Jardine Drags. After much experimentation, I thought I'd share my results.
I drilled a hole in each pipe about 5" from the end of the pipes. The...
I'm planning on doing the Desmog this weekend and looking at Bares' instructions, he recommends 1: 1/8" and 1: 1/2" rubber vacuum cap to cover exposed hose connectors. I'm concerned about using...
As with most things, moderation. I'm fortunate that I can switch baffles quickly to suit riding situations. Most times, I have the quiet baffles. Others, like attending events, I'll switch to the not...
I'll 2nd HDL. Local and 2 different Internet sites said the Bridgestone 200 axe was backordered until August. Called HDL, and they had the tire delivered within the week. Needless to say, I'll be...
Not to get to philosophical, but in every relationship, there has to be some respect. She knows you enjoy riding, and that you have friends that ride. Duh, you may just want to ride with your friends...
Situation resolved. Loose lower acorn nut on rear pipe. Only about 1/2 a turn to make it tight again but enough of a difference to affect the pipes as described above. Must have worked loose since...
During the first service, is there a need for the tech. to remove the pipes? I ask because since getting my bike back from this service, the bike has lost some pickup and the deceleration is much...
edc1800: No problem with the dealer mounting the tire. They scheduled for this Friday. However there is a problem since it seems the Bridgestones are backordered at least a month :shock:!
I tried...
That's one great thing about this site, getting see other rides and mods. Seeing what you've done gets my head spinning thinking about the possiblilities! Nice pics!! Think I'll order the Battleaxe...
Thanks for the replies. Yep, I knew it wouldn't stop the wiggle, but I figured I'd at least have a bit bigger "tire patch" on the road than stock hence, better recovery. Can anyone answer my...
Good evening all,
My wife and I were riding this weekend and came up on a road filled with tar snakes. As much as I tried to avoid them, the bike still felt like slipping out from under us...
Spike in a kilt?
I'll pass! :shock:
It's true it is going to be non-visable. If you don't mind, I've never heard of muffler cement. What is it?
I'd like to plug a 1/4" hole drilled into each of my pipes. I can't use a nut/bolt since the hole is halfway covered by the end of a baffle. I've heard good things about JB Weld and was thinking this...
Well, after some experimentation, I've found my original setup to be the best for power/sound, which is the hole 5.5", washer side of TM towards the end of exhaust. Gearing up to fourth gear is very...
Guitar4him-"Was there some reason for wanting two?"
Well, since I've drilled a new mounting hole for the Thunder Baffle, I still have the original hole that I now have just a screw and bolt...
Has anyone tried or know what to expect if two of the bolt/washer configs. are installed into a drag pipe? Say seperated by 4-6 inches within the muffler portion? Not sure how this would affect...
For those interested, here are my thoughts on the Jardines with the TM's installed:
As stated above, I installed the TM's about 5.5" from the muffler tip with the washer towards the tip. The pipes...
Thanks for the replies! I did successfully remove the Jardine stock baffles. They are in there tight(there is a light wrapping of thin baffle wrap that I think added to the tightness). I used a dull...
My Jardine drags arrived today along with the TM baffles. It looks to be a job getting the stock baffles out of the Jardines, but once this is complete, is it necessary to drill a hole 3-6" from the...
Can anyone tell me what the inside diameter of the Jardine straight cut drags is? The outside measurement for the 1800R/N is 2.25".
Thanks,
S~
Hey all,
First posting so a heartfelt HELLO!! to everyone here. Proud owner of a new 2005 Orange 1800N. First order of business is to get more sound out of this thing (even my wife...
