    Evil Knievel Rocket 3 Edition

    Well, I don't know if I'm a trendsetter or not, but I traded off my R3T for a GT last summer. One of the guys in our little riding group followed my lead this spring and bought one. He also owns a Triumph Tiger and an Indian Pursuit so money was not an object. If you lead they will follow.

    Rocket owners average age!

    I can't remember if and when I last commented on this.... I turned 78 in January and bought a new Rocket 3 GT last summer. I guess I'm not very good at acting my age. 😵‍💫😱

    Where oh where are all the Rockets?

    I'm going to be seeing just one new GT for sure. One of the guys I ride with just bought the Evil Knievel GT. I may have encouraged a trend...if you lead they will follow. Now there will be two rockets in our small town. I have mixed feelings, as now I won't be the exclusive rocket owner...

    New 2.5L owner, things I hate about the motorcycle.

    I don't miss them. I had them on my fatboy and R3T. Those little forward controls work for me. You adjust.

    Tell them... too bad! 150 miles with 25 in reserve I'm ready for a butt break anyway. 🤣

    I have not because I have an adapter I use in the din plug up front. I use the compartment for tool storage and the like.

    Left side cover

    I think I have a cover for an R3T in the garage somewhere. I sold one of the two I had a long time ago. Not sure which one I have left, so I'll have to check. Edit: Sorry...If you are sitting on the bike, I only have the right side cover. I must have sold the left cover.

    New 2.5L owner, things I hate about the motorcycle.

    I put some Grip Puppies on my old R3T but the grips were just way big because of the larger grips to begin with. The GT grips are a little small and could use a set. My question is...how does that affect your heated grip function? Seems like it would be difficult to warm through the puppies...

    Picky, Picky, Picky! Are you absolutely sure you didn't miss anything?? OMG..why did you even buy the bike? Get rid of it! You never like everything about any bike. I prefer to ride and just enjoy it for what it is, and that's a lot!

    Connectivity module location for 2.5L

    I was looking at the instructions and it looked like you had to remove quite a bit of stuff to get to the mounting location. I have the GT with the pannier mounting brackets installed as well. It looks like those need to come off, the under cover, backrest, fender and taillight. How much of a...

    Question about Noise while releasing clutch

    I can't speak towards the clutch issue here, but I'm with you in a way on oils and filters. I always used the recommended Castrol 4T and Triumph filters on my R3T. With my new GT I will only be using the Triumph 2nd Generation - Oil Change Kit – TOCR32500 while it is under warranty and...

    Removing Rear Wheel - 2022 GT

    I learned a long time ago when I use to lift my Rocket Touring, the front wheel had to be lashed so it couldn't turn. I used to lash it to the crash bars. Not so easy to do with my GT, so I'm going to be working that out. I may have to fabricate a wheel chock that I can fasten to at least a...

    Rocket GT Relay Location

    No problem on my end. I never had a issue with my touring either, but I know once and awhile someone has had an issue. I just like to know where things are at and as much about my bike as possible. Thanks!
