    For Sale 2012 Rocket III Roadster ABS - $6k

    I'm looking to sell as I just don't ride anymore. I thought I would ride more when I got it, but evidently not. Probably has a lot to do with having a baby lol Purchased in 2018 and has been garage kept since. It only had 7611 miles when I bought it, verifiable on the title. I've only put 600...

    Intermittent crank

    It seemingly held a charge at around 12+ volts, but one attempt to crank had it drop back down to about 10.3, so I took it back and got it exchanged. I also had them test it while I was there to rule out yet another dud, but it was good. Sure enough, bike started right up, no issue. What had me...

    Intermittent crank

    Well, I got back out in the garage and checked voltage of battery. I'll be ****ed if it doesn't show 10.3V...so I'll throw it on trickle charger and see how it looks tomorrow. I've never had a battery not be ready to go when purchased new. Thanks for the tip, that's a first for me.

    Intermittent crank

    I appreciate the shot in the dark, but as stated, it is a brand new battery. Just put it in today and it has a manufactured date of July 2020. I also ensured terminals were clean on battery as well as cable going to starter, which was already very clean.

    Intermittent crank

    I can put the key in, lights come on, etc. but sometimes it won't even crank. It is in Neutral. Just replaced battery, thinking the 3 year old battery I had may have been an issue. Still nothing. I have opened up the starter button and cleaned those terminals, so that should be good. If I do...

    Used motorcycle loan recommendations?

    Gladly. I wound up with MB financial and got 5.84%. Let me know if you have any other snarky questions. To all others, thanks for the replies. I think maybe a credit union is the way to go. I shouldn't have much issue. According to my bank, my fico is 761, so I imagine that should be a welcome...

    Used motorcycle loan recommendations?

    I just discovered that my current lender will not allow me to pay extra on top of the designated monthly payment. I find that to be incredibly dirty, so I want to change lenders, as I intend to pay extra on top of my loan and pay it off well before the full 48 months. I was hoping I could get a...

    Fuel gauge

    I haven't ridden since the battery post tightening. In fact, I'm wondering if that may have somehow been responsible for the weird stalling I encountered as well (negative post was loose).

    Fuel gauge

    Just took delivery of my 2012 R3 Roadster. As I was riding it around and turning into the alley, it stalled, which was also unusual, but maybe I need to get used to this bike's clutch/engine dynamics? Anyway, after that stall I noticed the fuel level gauge was completely void of any bars. Upon...

    Stalled ?

    this is an old post, but curious what, if anything, was discovered here? I just took delivery of my 2012 R3 and as I was turning into the alley to get to my garage, it stalled, which I thought was very weird. I may have been in 2nd, I'm not certain unfortunately.

    Just bought a 2012 R3 Roadster

    Ha! Some of you guys may be right as far as mods go, aesthetically speaking, so who knows in time. I suppose first I should finish my project truck and get that out of the garage before I do anything on the bike beyond paint, otherwise the wife will really pitch a fit. :eek:

    Just bought a 2012 R3 Roadster

    I recently got back into bikes (took a hiatus after an SUV ran through a stop sign and opposing lanes of traffic to cut me off and cause me to crash) and after much deliberation between sport bike and cruiser, I finally settled on the Rocket III. I had already read that it was a good bike for...
