Anyone ever enter your bike in a bike show? I know around my small town I think I have the only Rocket in town and being a unique, seldom seen bike that maybe it would be fun to enter in bike shows. Why the hell not....
I think I’m in love. However, I’ve never seen one in person! Think I’d have to get the bars raised for a more upright position tho....Brock’s has made 240 to the tire with air filter, pipe and tune.
OK, here's the deal...over a stretch of 300-400 miles, mostly back and forth to work, I noticed my fuel mileage began to drop. During this period of time the idle began to go lower and rougher, until it reached the point where I had to keep the rev's up when I stopped, otherwise, it would stall...
Bought my first rocket (a 2005) as my welcome back home gift from Iraq in early 2007. A sweet silver ride. Cruised on is between trips to SW Asia (contractor for Gen Dynamics). Came back in 2012.
Fell in love and got married (again) Oct 2014. My bride decided she liked the east coast better...
I pulled in the driveway yesterday and the motor died it immediately started back up no problem it's sat overnight, today I went out to start it I turn the ignition and there's absolutely nothing.
Had my 1st decent ride since I road my bike off before last Christmas and glad to be back in the saddle.
Did a Farride to the border and back between WA and SA ,just over 2100km Round trip.
Weather couldn't be better and did just over 1000km home Sunday.
Kept compering my old bike to this one as...
Well those crazy deer. Never crossing where we put up the "deer crossing" signs. What? Can't they read.?
But seriously, the insurance has written off the bike. So I'm looking for some info. Some questions I have are
1.what are some issues that need to be considered? Tyranny. Wireing. Detent...
Like the idea of one of these to scoot around on...down to the shops...off to work...around to see the hairdresser...that sort of stuff...will keep the km's low on my Rocket...They are a Honda Monkey 125cc..just under 7k new.

Good morning from NSW.
I have a question for all of those who are way more experienced then me.
I am about to turn 20 (I weigh 78Kg, and am around 5 foot 8 if it means anything) and thus will be getting my black licence after 3 of daily commuting a Yamaha YZF-R3 around 50000KMs since new...
Last few times I've ridden the bike has just shutoff for no reason. It will only happen once and will fire right back up when I hit start.
The first time I was slowing down coming up to a light and dropped a couple gears and it shutoff.
The other times I was coming to a stop pulled in clutch...
Hi all,
sad to sad I crashed the bike, but it looks like we will both live to ride another day!! :)
I've attached some images as Im interested in hearing opinions, I always try to learn from an off but Im not sure what I could have done. Was leaving home for work, travelling along a well known...
I´m absolutely in love with the Rocket III roadster, I´ve been in love for over a year now, and my chance to get one is getting closer. But I´ve never ridden a bike. I dont want to buy another bike before the rocket, mainly because i dont have the money to get 2 bikes.
So the question is: is it...
Upgrade to the FOBO Bike, the FOB Bike 2 was just released. $100 US, smaller and run of of Bluetooth 5.0.
So far they work great. No much to review as you screw them on, set up the app... all in all it takes about 10 min. Like them so far.
Free new bike bits!! Fly screen fitted and an opportunity for a shameless pimping of my baby :thumbsup:
As it is just about there, or will do until next winter where more stuff will happen to make it mine, thought I would post a few pics.
A bit about the bike - bought in January as a Cat N...
My 23 year old son wants a road bike. He isn’t a big guy, manages to handle the R3, but it’s to much for him. IMO a disaster waiting to happen. Just not a beginners bike. He isn’t really a beginner, has a motorcycle endorsement, but his hours on big bikes are low, and I know him, he will push it...
