    Here is a place where to get a paint matched for your Rocket

    I am getting a custom part and it needs to be painted to match my Rocket. Well, I had to do leg work for the custom shop I ordered from and figure out the source for the paint. I am a bit frustrated with that shop, but, willing to finally do whatever it takes to speed things along, if I can...

    Upset with Corbin, paid, yet received nothing in 12 weeks

    When I bought my bike new, I knew I had to have the fairing. I read a number of reviews from the all available windshields, mostly people complained that they were not high enough. The Corbin fairing has old style Harley windshield that can be cheaply extended by mounting a different sized...

    Insta 360 camera setup for GT

    Pics: imgur.com/a/CuixcRI Bought Insta 360 x4 camera, this is my setup at raising it above the helmet to capture unobstructed by rider "google street" type of view.

    What do you think about the riding modes? Do you find them useful?

    Do you switch riding modes around? What modes do you personally use and when?

    Does any Rocket version have a black frame for the TFT display?

    I am not a fan of the silver plastic highlight on the TFT display. Do you know if any Rocket version was featured with that part black? Can it be ordered? Trying to figure out if there are easier ways than repainting.

    Found a way to keep the radiator heat from cooking my lower leg

    Riding in hot weather makes radiator fan exhaust just skin melting, specifically the right lower leg, somewhere above the ankle. So, found and bought one of these that someone makes at home. Not the most beautiful thing by far, yet functional. Link: Motorcycle Leg Heat Shield Pad, Protection...

    Found extra space to store custom electronics under the seat - removed a component

    Was looking for more space to store some of the electronics for which I had no space. This bike has very little space for customization. So, I removed that phone hard pouch that I'll never use, and the removal created so much extra space. Not waterproof, of course, but still space. Pics...

    How would you rate the gearbox on 2.5L Rocket?

    Because of the special and unique engine, it seems all reviews of Rocket 2.5L are centered and gravitated to solely discussing the engine's capabilities and performance. People rarely talk about the gearbox. May I ask what is your personal experience, and how do you think it stands in...

    Two months of new Rocket ownership, first rust develops

    Saddened to find a subpar metal used for decorative purposes on the radiator screen. Pics: imgur.com/a/wibJHS8 Unfortunately, the camera made the pic too bright. When looking in person, the rust is easily seen. Going to replace the strip with something else. I doubt it will stop rusting. I bit...

    Storm GT v R inconsistent tank color positioning

    Just noticed of this weird inconsistency. So, the Storm models (GT & R) come in 3 colors, red, blue, and gray. So, for the GT the top of the tank is black, the bottom is the color. For the R, it is the color on top, black on the bottom. The INCONSISTENCY is with the GRAY color in both, GT and...

    Anyone ever ridden a Suzuki Boulevard M109R? How would you compare it to Rocket 2.5L?

    Are Storm models also updatable with maps?

    I read that Storm have something different in them. I might be wrong. That is ability to write maps. Could you tell me what you know?

    Caved in, added some storage, a hard tail bag

    Can't say I am loving it, but also not hating it - the trunk. Caved in for some storage, so I don't have to take with me everything, now I can leave chotskies some with the bike. Pics: imgur.com/a/uOaMCK1 Thoughts? For sure it is better without the trunk, looks wise, but, it is so convenient.

    Thoughts on this new way of adding storage?

    I don't think I have seen this yet these types of bags on this model, thoughts? (multiple pics): imgur.com/a/E9Amd4j

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

    It is a great motorcycle, otherwise I would not have thrown ~28K USD on it. But not without its faults. Things I strongly dislike about it: - Inability to put on generic grips, there are so many better handlebar grips out there... - Inability to put on floorboards, none are made for this...

    I think my engine was made in '23, though my model is '25

    Today found this written date on the engine when I was fixing something below, generally unseen from the side. On the pic it looks like it is easy to see, but that surface that it is written on is parallel with the ground and I did not see it until now.

    Is something misaligned here?

    This kind of always concerned me, decided to post and ask.

    Was thinking of a hook to hang my helmet (a possible solution)

    So, I have a GT, it has a really nice backrest to use to hang a helmet. But, I am putting a small trunk behind, kinda evicting my helmet. Or, think of R version. It is kind of convenient to take off a helmet and in immediate reach to hang it somewhere in arms reach. The hook needs to be in a...
