Curious if the largest production engine somehow influences what gears you use when driving, say, vs some other motorcycle. Like, more using higher or lower gears... Low cruising speed vs highway cruising.. For example, I find myself at times just taking off from a stop in 3rd gear.. What is...

Hi, new to this site and hoping to find some guidance. I own a 2013 rocket 3 roadster. My dad bought it new and I have since bought it from him 2 years ago. The bike has been flawless, never had a issue. Its just hit 21K When shifting from 4th to 5th it would sometimes miss. It felt like it...

A good friend of mine is getting trained on servicing the new R3 engine and sent me these shots of the engines gear pack. Hopefully this will alleviate some of the tranny issues.

Hi all. Do you think it's necessary to do an oil change after a new clutch and gears? I.e. put a few 100 miles on it or let it go the full service interval? Thanks again.

My 2015 Rocket Roadster X, just over 10,000 miles and the gearbox is er...has stopped working. It all happened in one day, having travelled about 30 miles. Closing the throttle in 2nd, whilst approaching traffic lights and roundabouts, caused a rattling noise from the LH side of the gearbox...
