Are there any Rocket Pilots near Cape Cod, MA that are going to the Bike Blessing tomorrow at West Dennis beach? Gates open around 9:30 and the blessing will probably be around 11:00. I will be attending and thought I would reach out and maybe meet before and ride down together. I am in Sandwich...
I found a good deal on a 2012 Thunderbird Storm and was able to pick it up this week. Had a 2005 rocket 3 before and really liked it but a deer ruined that for me. My wife gave me a pass to just go pick up a new rocket but I did not feel it would be the best financial decision. Here is my new...
I'm having a few problems with aching wrists on longish rides. I have the R3R and was wondering whether this is to do with the angle of the stock bars or just not enough pull back to sit in a more natural position.
I've seen a lot have gone for the rivcos to sort similar problems and some the...

I do not knnow about most of you but backinng out of my garage is nearly inpossible due to slope
so I looked a all possibilities in the end a bike dolly made the most sense buying one is also near impossible with a rear tire of 240 dimension and some are rather flimsy looking so I made...
Hi all,
I am new to the forum and looking for some guidance (via searching forums first of course) on doing a full custom of my 2004 Rocket III I bought from my father in law. It only has 7,000 kilometers on it so pretty fresh engine but the body and paint is a bit tatty after being left...
Not sure if anyone has heard of this problem based on these "hints" (I'm not mechanically inclined):
2012 Rocket Roaster with Carpenter Brute exhaust, Power Commander, air box delete, triple K&N filters, 37,000km
I put in about 600km since I got her this winter. Has been running like a charm...
They hired a new guy at work. Mr Harley Davidson himself. He has all the tattoos neat looking sunglasses and of course the Harley Davidson t-shirt. He even had genuine Harley Davidson boots on. Of course the supervisor who we get along with real well hooked him up with me to show him around and...
So, I know this is a cruiser, but it's also much, much more, so I guess my expectations are very high for its handling. Well today, while on my usual ride through the canyons, a sportbike appeared in my rear view mirror, seemingly out of nowhere. So, I signaled for him to go by me, but then...
So I've owned my '05 now for one year, I have enjoyed the power on the back roads alone although I have never really toyed with any other riders until yesterday. I was riding to work minding my own business cruising at about 80 mph when I see a sport bike coming up behind me in my mirror. He...
Alibi up front: I am not comparing any of these machines to the Rocket!
I went to the Colonial Beach Bike Festival on Saturday Oct 10 and test rode six Harleys. Why? Because variety is the spice of life and I knew Brahma would not get jealous if I rode a few other bikes.
First ride is the Soft...
Now that I have my 2011 roadster it was finally time to strip my old faithfull bike before I sell it, I took everything off except the handlebar risers and the triple K&Ns to much trouble better just leaving them.
Time to part with a bunch of stuff a wee list more might follow
Maddog exhaust...
The 2011 Roadster I bought on eBay arrived last Friday, as a lot of you know I am one of the original Rocket owners still have my Red 2005(but will be selling it) few observations Triumph tried to save a few bucks with the Roadster the brake and clutch levers are of cheaper quality the rear...
Had to jumpstart the bike ... wouldn't quite turn over. It's a 2014 with only 3k miles so I was surprised by that, but still. Hook up my charger/jumper for a few, start it up and off I go. Sun goes down and I notice ... I have no headlights.
Running lights, signals, etc are ok. Hi/low beam...
Considering the Rocket gets a lot of mods, like the Carpenter stage 1 and 2 kits, blowers, etc., how does the driveline hold up on this bike? Coming from an M109R, which had a weak driveline, the question popped into my head. There were guys that actually snapped the drive shaft on 109s from...
I have a'13_ R3T would at least like to get Power-Tripps de -resting tune ,have TORS and hopefully my Ram-Air filter on by then. I have a Lonelec cable.
