    New 2.5L owner, things I hate about the motorcycle.

    It is a great motorcycle, otherwise I would not have thrown ~28K USD on it. But not without its faults. Things I strongly dislike about it: - Inability to put on generic grips, there are so many better handlebar grips out there... - Inability to put on floorboards, none are made for this...

    Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction 2025

    I am so glad I found out about this 2 months in advance this year. It gives me two months to convince the wife I need a new (to me) Norton. The odds are slim but you never know, I can be like a toddler at times!! :)...

Now I'm at it again however the company does no longer exist. There are around 60 complaints with the BBB about being charged and...

    The great British motorcycle scam

    Norton Motorcycles was once one of the most prestigious brands in motorsport. So how did it become the vehicle for a multimillion pound pension fraud that has left investors penniless? https://www.theguardian.com/news/audio/2023/jul/24/the-great-british-motorcycle-scam-part-one-podcast

    When is the best time to sell/trade-in a motorcycle?

    I have a 2022 Black Rocket 3 R with 45,000 miles on it. I’m averaging 35,000 miles per year. The bike has been trouble free and I am not lusting after anything new. Because of the mileage, I have started to think about the lifespan of the bike and its value when/if I decide to trade it in for...

    TRIK Custom Motorcycle Parts rear fender

    Got the matte dark gray rear fender to see if it helps keep things cleaner and dry. Shipping from trikstore.uk was fast and all the hardware was included. It took less than an hour to fit and finish. I'd like to think an Exedra Max would fit.

  10. 2020 Rocket 3 R Passenger Pegs Fall Down

    I removed my stock passenger pegs and upon re-installing them, they fall down when I make semi-sharp corners. They have been properly tightened.

    Old motorcycle trading cards

    Most kids collected baseball cards growing up. But back in the late 60's and into the 70's I would spend my change on motorcycle trading cards. A stick of bubble gum and a few cards of bikes. I happened to run across an old card file while cleaning out and thought I'd share. Some of the glue...

    Rear Footpeg extenders

    Hello, Are there any rear footpeg extenders for the Rocket 3 Roadster 2018? I tired buying a set and adapters and they ended up being the wrong size. I have a saddle bags and the bags cover up the rear pegs right at the tip. So I need to bring them forwards a few inches.
