  1. Engine Guards

    Hi Gents, Please give me a suggestion for Engine guards for Rocket 2022R, which will be protected legs in case of the fall, not just like the sliders. thanks

    I think my engine was made in '23, though my model is '25

    Today found this written date on the engine when I was fixing something below, generally unseen from the side. On the pic it looks like it is easy to see, but that surface that it is written on is parallel with the ground and I did not see it until now.

  3. Engine mis

    Hey guys. I've had a minor but annoying mis develop. Absolutely fine from cold, once hot at low speed under light throttle it will be jerky momentarily then clear. Also at no throttle when idling it will mis intermittently and can be quite jerky when moving from a standstill. At higher throttle...

    Unexpected engine pulsing in 4th gear

    Just got totally new '25 R3GT, keeping it in rain mode for a few weeks. Found that when I am in 4th gear, around 1700rpm, 34-36mph, the bike kind of pulses, the engine sound and kind of come-and-go feeling. Happens even under slight acceleration in that range. I don't think the engine is...

    2.5 Static engine pressure ( compression)

    Has anyone checked to see what the static compression is on a new 2.5? 180psi 190psi 200psi, 210psi, probably some power in this stock engine that has hi comp pistons stock. I bet its tame. There’s probably 3 people on planet that know the answer to this in our orbit, Lush, Penner, Carpenter...

  7. Anybody recall the Germain engine guards name?

    Would appreciate anyone that could help me out with the name. They were 2 inch diameter pipes. They fit before 2020 rocket 3. Thanks

    Help, please! Engine overheating 🥵

    I have an ongoing problem with my 22GT. I have taken it to two different dealerships and they have not been able to diagnose the issue. Relays are good, continuity is good and the fan motors are good. When I get into traffic I know to switch over to the temp reading because if it goes a half...

    ****** guards / engine heat guards

    Has anyone seen something like the Capt Itch guards for the Rocket 2? The heat in Texas is pretty brutal before the motor starts to cook you. I have ordered a slip-on exhaust, which should help with the cat heat. I also ordered carbon fiber exhaust manifold covers and read all the pages in the...

    R3T and Roadster engine differences...

    Good day group, just wondering if there are internal differences in the RIIITs and RIIIRs, such as cam or were all the performance differences done in the ECM. Reason why I ask is many sources say the R#T is 92hp and 120ft lbs of torque at the wheel. I just threw a tune at my 2014 RIIIT and it...

    SAI / SMOG removal

    Hey guys, I'm wanting to know a bit more about the Secondary Air Injections system and removing it after a Meerkat Exhaust Mod. From what I understand it mainly for better emission numbers and assists in deceleration. It also seems to be the culprit in the piping and backfires. I am wanting to...

    Momentary voltage drop? / check engine light

    My 2014 RT3 has been lighting up the check engine light randomly (but kind of regularly). It will be on for a bit, the ECU will reset it after a bit and then mysteriously it will come on again. Had the dealer check what the issue was and they said its a momentary voltage drop that trips the...

  17. Engine Axle Bolt in a bind during crash bar install

    So... We were installing a new set of German crash bars on a 2018 Rocket III Roadster. We leveled the bike up, put a scissor lift under the front of the engine for support. We tapped out the old rod with the new rod going right in behind it. When the old rod was just about out, it stopped...

    RPM for a stock engine?

    I am curious what the experts here think the top RPM that I could run without too much risk for the stock Rocket 3 engine? Current dyno runs on my bike look like it is limited at ~6700 RPM. Would 7K be too much, 7400? I am not sure how much margin they build into these engines.

    SAI Delete Kit for 2.5 engine

    I tried to sell this on eBay but they cancelled the auction because of 'ecological issues' - a bit harsh if you ask me ..... Anyway, I have this kit which I was intending to fit over the winter but I sold the bike so it is no longer needed. £40 including postage to anywhere in the UK. Go on -...
