    Want to Buy Stock Exhaust

    Where are you located? I'd be willing to sell mine.

    New aftermarket rear shock!

    I did Wilbers on my K1600GT and it made a good bike even better. The stock shock bottoms out too easily on big bumps and if you increase the compression, the sharp edged ones punish you almost as badly. I'd just love to have remote preload for when I take the wife or kid along. Since my load...

    New aftermarket rear shock!

    This doesn't have any remote preload adjustment, correct? The rear shock is the one thing bout my R3R that I absolutely hate. My spine hates it as much as I do.

    Time for a Texas Roll Call

    I can't say that I've seen cheaper but it has been a while since I checked. That seems pretty close to what I was quoted. I can say that the dealer in Plano has treated me well for both my K1600 and R3R.

    First Rocket

    Congrats on the new bike. I am an ex Diavel owner and the last was an XDiavel S. It was quicker at higher speeds that my 2022 Rocket 3 but overall, I like the Rocket more to ride. All that torque, more comfortable chassis, smoother motor, and easier to take a passenger if I want. Not to mention...

    Making the 3R R'er

    I get what you are trying to go for. The gap kills it for me. I'd probably take the seat cowl off, leave what you've already smoothed in, get get some of the high density padding I used to have on some of my road race bikes and just lay it in the groove and make that the seat. A plus of lower...

    Basically they wrote "Greetings from Poland". Pozdrowienia z Teksasu. Spędziłem dużo czasu w Warszawie i Polsce. Enjoy your Rocket!

    Rocket3 Roadster Trike - Differential ratio question

    Great to hear that it is working out for you. Sounds like you had a nice ride other than the rain. Do you notice any better acceleration with the lower gearing? Top gear is where you are more likely to have slip. The less you can use your clutch the better. Do they make a quick shifter for your...

    Pre-purchase questions

    Most of your points have been well covered. I had the last gen Rocket and when they came out in 2020 with the new one, I was very tempted but thought I'd wait to pick one up used as I was looking at close to $30k out the door at the time. I still was interested in one so I kept my eye open and...

    Them Storms are hot, I'm thinkin' I NEED one.

    My XDiavel was a fun bike but I have to say I like the Rocket better. Stock for stock, the XDiavel is quicker then a 2.5l Rocket and handles better. The 2.5 Rocket with a tune is a bit quicker than the XDiavel so the Storm likely will be as well if that matters. How they go about their business...

    Them Storms are hot, I'm thinkin' I NEED one.

    I would echo almost everything he said. I found a super low miles 2022 R. It had 900 miles on it. It was at a Harley dealer and they really didn't know what to do with it. I negotiated very hard got a heckuva deal. Based on what they wanted to sell me a new Storm for and the one I picked up, I...

    Penner tune is a great addition if you want to unleash the rocket's real power. The QS is one of the best I've experienced. TBH, I think it helps that the motor isn't super high-revving and gear spacing doesn't seem that great. Regardless it works very well and is better than the one on my...

    Hello and welcome to the forum. A lot to love about the Rocket but also a lot of content here on how to upgrade it as well.

    Another exhaust option from Dominator

    I am not concerned about ultimate power with this muffler, I have other bikes far quicker than the Rocket. Like you, I wanted to save weight and reduce heat. Super hot temps here in the summer. Well over 100F/40C and the cat just cooks me. I like the reverse cone megaphone look. Recalls the old...

    Another exhaust option from Dominator

    The Dominator does sort of look like an Akra. I'd like it more if the 1 into 2 piping wasn't so visible. Obviously, a lot of this is subjective from an appearance perspective, but I never really understood the appeal so far of most of the dual outlets options. While the factory did it dual on...

    Handle Bar Clamp/Riser Bolts

    Which Voigt risers did you go with, the generic ones or the R3 specific ones? Did you need to do anything with cables or lines? How have they been working out for you?

    Picked up a 25 R3R Storm...

    Nice looking bike. I saw one of those at the dealer and was very tempted but I stumbled across an amazing deal on a barely used 2022 R3R that I couldn't turn it down. Your color livery is the one I absolutely would have went with had I gone new. As mentioned, don't touch a tune until TuneECU...

    Healtech Quickshifter

    I have an extended warranty on my bike and I checked and they said they will cover it if anything happens to it.

    Hi Again F0lks:: Interlocking brakes

    Adding more color from CycleNews. "I can honestly say that I really could feel the rear brake being operated via the electronics even though I was only squeezing the front brake lever—and this actually is beneficial to the bike’s deportment in turns, because it sets up a counter to the massive...
