The pannier racks are back-ordered so I had to make do with an aftermarket tail bag and the triumph tank bag for storage - which really...
UNWRITTEN RULES FOR MOTORCYCLISTS?
Just like any sport or hobby, riding a motorcycle comes with two sets of rules—the written and the unwritten, a recent article suggested these are the unwritten rules.
1). Don’t Ask to Ride Someone Else’s Bike
2). Always Alert Fellow Riders of Hazards ...
Here's a winter project for our Canadian rocketeers--and any others who know some good roads up there--in Ontario, Quebec, or New Brunswick. Can you suggest some good twisties in any of those provinces, places to head to next summer? I've seen plenty of pictures of good looking roads in...
Right in the middle of my first road trip on the Rocket. 300+ miles and zero discomfort. The bike rides and handles so good for a big fat tire bike. 40mpg is amazing having a 2.3L engine. My wife is with me on her 2012 Spyder RT. My tune I loaded is working very good and as the miles go by it's...
Me and Wendy was coming back from supper in Madisonville and spotted a blue and white rocket caught up to them in Sweetwater at the red light NC tags that say bigbike Wendy talked to them for a few seconds before the light change so hopefully they will join the r3 sight some of y'all that lives...
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...
Hi guy,
I have 2 Roadsters, one of 2010 (48000kms) and one 2015 Roadster X. I pretend to sell old one and stay with the X.
I was contacted by a guy with a 1999 Road King Classic 88 Inch EFI with 35000km whether I want to make the change because he can´t follow his friends on tour lololol...
Finally, work has slacked off and I'm getting a much needed but short road trip in. Staying in a favorite campsite on the New River near Galax, VA. Traveling solo- s'ok! Test ride- Changed the valve cover gasket (what a fiddley s$!t that thing is!) and put on my new @Paul Bryant crossover pipe-...
Tuesday evening, I was on my way to our weekly bike night and got rear ended by a young lady too busy texting to see slowing traffic. Got knocked off bike and went bouncing along the top of her car before taking a ride on the asphalt.
I was geared up so no road salsa, but did a number on my...
Having some great weather in most of the UK, so very frustrating that the Rocket was off the road. Mainly down to another senior moment like putting the fork seals in backwards!
So we are back together and now the seals aren’t leaking all the shiny new oil it’s riding a lot better...
After over a year of agony repairing the girl when she spit-out a valve destroying pistons and head, and before working relentlessly to figure out a poor-running issue (ended up being plugged injectors from it sitting so long) among other things.. I pulled her out on her maiden voyage...
Lets see what shes made of. This will be a true test. Im going on an extended road trip with rhe classic. Btw, the viking bags sissy bar bag wasn't as big as I thought.
Looking to sell my Wilbers. I bought them new and have only been on the bike for around 1000kms.
Asking $NZ1600.00 plus postage.Cost me just short of $NZ2000.00. with govt duty and G.S.T.
Preload set at 8mm. Real nice shocks but our roads have alot of earthquake related damage and the spring...
Well fellow rocket pilots. i have hit a point in my channel where its just blah, but i got to thinking about what fellow Rocket riders would want to see. i do not see a lot of videos out there for mods to rockets or basic maintenance ( i filmed an oil change and the whole **** thing was out of...
Finally getting a chance to take a trip on the Rocket. Leaving for Oregon in the morning. I have been fast now is the time to see how she feels going far. Bike looks like the Beverly Hillbillies truck with my gear pack on it. See you down the road
