    Welp, It Happened…Bike No Start While Out

    The main loom had got trapped on my bike, do you know if Triumph have checked this area? if your bike is the same as mine? it's possible the wires are barely touching, maybe causing intermittent starting, just a thought.

    Bike No2 joins the Rocket 3 in Jagster's garage.....

    I do like the 1917 Henderson, I'm guessing it was a track bike only? surely they had invented brakes by 1917 :D

    Bike No2 joins the Rocket 3 in Jagster's garage.....

    "Well.....I didn't think i'd be saying this, but i've gone and purchased another bike which should contrast the riding experience I get from my 2020 Rocket 3R." Very nice - Giz a go mate 😁 I've just had a wander around their web site, it's a dangerous place to browse if you have some loose change.

    10k mile service - DIY (also, Spark Plugs Not Tight & Wire Boots Not Pushed On!)

    I've been meaning to add my experience to this thread, so here goes. Firstly I found all my plug caps were loose, as with you guys, I found them literally just resting in the hole. One of the plugs showed signs of arcing and a few showed signs of corrosion. You can see some corrosion on a...

    DIY tire replacement - What you think?

    The metal stand is really cheap, without a doubt Chinese, so needed a little fettling to square things up. I could have made something, but really for the price, it wasn't worth getting my tools out. If you go down this route? make sure the thing is level (There is a small bubble level on my...

    DIY tire replacement - What you think?

    I balance my wheels at home using one of these (I have no affiliation) The cones are made of some sort of Delrin, they seem robust enough.

    Totally agree, we got the hint the coffee shop was closing when all the chairs except our two were placed on the table tops :D ...do your talking as you're walking.

    Triumph to celebrate 100 years of the Rocket 3 with special owners event at Elvington Airfield

    Hey Jagster, thanks for agreeing to meet a random off the internet, at a service station :cool: I must say I was very impressed with your modifications, all too often you see good ideas, however the execution of those ideas leaves room for improvement, yours were spot on. Shortly after you...

    Triumph to celebrate 100 years of the Rocket 3 with special owners event at Elvington Airfield

    Hi, The only info I have is that the gates open at 08:30 and it's free entry, unless you want to ride the runway. Taken from the mail sent to me, Gates open at 8.30am and we’re aiming to have the first bike away at 10.30am after a generic safety briefing for all who are there beforehand. I...

    Triumph to celebrate 100 years of the Rocket 3 with special owners event at Elvington Airfield

    Sorry for the late reply, Yes, that sounds like a plan, that route also misses out the road works on the A1. I've been reading further down this thread, with reference to wearing full leathers if you want to ride the runway. I can't get in mine anymore, so spectator it is.

    Triumph to celebrate 100 years of the Rocket 3 with special owners event at Elvington Airfield

    Bennetts insurance company sent me an email the other day, I'm not entirely sure what I signed up for? Anyway, I ticked both boxes, one to ride the new Rocket and the other to ride my GT down the runway. So, weather permitting I'll be there
