Hello all
I have a 2005 rocket and I checked the drop in the plunger with a caliper it read 22mm I installed the spacer now I want to know how long I have left before I need to tear it down and replace the chain guides chain etc
I plan on changing the lower sprocket cam sprockets the chain...
Good afternoon all! My '15 R3R has about 16k miles, and the stupid cam cover gasket has started sweating like a bunch of us have experienced I've discovered after using the Search tool. So, likely over my head, but feeling brave, I decided to tackle it. I've got the tank safely off, I've...
Ok, I have a question. How do you adjust this with out putting too much tension on the guide and causing premature wear on the chain guides? With the clutch cover off you can visually see it moving and feel the tension. Whats too much and whats not enough? If the cover was on I don't see how...
My 05 Rocket did not run clean after 240,000 km. The engine no longer cleanly picked up gas in the upper engine speed range, cylinders 2 and 3 had a lower compression than the 1st cylinder.
So I had the engine removed and disassembled. Although the
fault was with the defective cylinder head...

Just about ready. Cams on the way. Parts are in from Hermy's. After dealing with Neville lush all i can say about the man is that he invited Customer Service. If your even thinking about doing any upgrades i would use him vice anyone else. The same can be said for Hermy's. The advice and...
Hi I have been replacing the cam chain, cam guides and cam chain tensioner spring on my 2006 rocket and I have a few questions.
The cam guide that sits next to the tensioner came out very easily from the bottom and I have attached a pic showing where the tensioner was eating into the back of...

@ Boog or @ Joesmoe have you or anyone else had to deal with Motorcycles of Dulles Service Dept?
I just noticed the telltale sign (SLIGHT oil leak) of the cam cover gasket and upon further inspection saw the gasket starting to pucker. The bike is just under a yr old and has about 8K miles so...
To Whom it May Concern:
I went to the tuner today, and 100 miles later, I am ecstatic.
For anyone considering a performance upgrade, who would like to obtain 90% of the fun (my imagination, to be sure) for 20% of the money, I highly recommend this performance upgrade. And I understand...
Hi have a 2006 rocket 3 with around 22000 miles on it and thought I would inspect the cam chain tensioner as recently I could hear a little light ticking while the engine was running. I removed the centre bolt on the tensioner and noted the spring free length was 70mm and the drop in the...
So, ive read whats on this site regarding this heap of engineering horsesh#t. And my local dealer stocks them, that says a bunch! Anyone have a foolproof way to get some life out this? The design just looks like, I cant wait to jump out of place!
Hey fellas, I just pulled a valve shim and see that the manual (p 3.18) requires a Cam Jig Tool (#T3880202) for reassembly. I've pulled the cams on a Bonneville and Thunderbird Sport years back and was able to lock the cams in with a simple bolt, but apparently the Rocket is a little more...
I am literally sick to my stomach right now. All have been helpful on here. As I have been trying to work out the tensioning of the cam chain, I ordered a slug to put in the tensioner instead of making one as @warp9.9 suggested with a bolt.
Pulled the center nut, put the slug in, and the...
Hey guys,
I saw this recently and thought I would share it with all of you. I have been a GoPro user for the long haul but this really has some potential to be my next cam. This unit is for the iPhone and the Android is coming shortly. A bit pricey but keeps things simple. The image...
I post this on the Performance section but I think it is more suitable here.
Admin should I delete my post in the performance section?

Noticed a slight leak at the rear right of the cover and the gasket seems distorted and broken allowing a leak.
Have smeared some gasket repair in to keep riding and just ordered the new gasket.
Is there any tips or tricks for this job?
Watching the fuel tank removal thread as this is what I...
