Well i bought this rocket three at 22kmiles back in July and the guy before had a power comander 5 and autotune on the bike he also removed the secondary throttle plates. It has the ToR exhaust. Well the first problem it ran into was sputtering and backfiring badly on the highway randomly. I...
Hey All....
Took a rock in the lower portion of the headlight cover and am trying to replace. Can't find the cover anywhere without buying the whole light assembly. Dealer is researching but thinks cost is around $110 CDN $$.
Anybody know if this is high/low or where to go?
Thanks
Hi I have just brought a 2010 roadster it was first registered in September 2011 it had its first oil change at the first service and now its done 4300 klms and the oil is at the add mark so I will top it up, but I don't know when it was last checked, so is there a general consensus on how much...
780 miles. Meticulous care. K and N's, Carpenter clutch springs, forward controls (nicer than factory). Not sure where the selling forum went. Email baldwinm88@gmail.com
I have my stock Pipes & headers from 2010 RIII Roadster and I'm trying to find a new home for them. I'm moving and don't want to drag them along with me. If anyone is interested, please let me know. Sorry if this isn't a good forum for this ... couldn't see one that fits better.
Hey guy's, what choice of tyres is there apart from the stock Metzler:confused:. I know people say that they don't get much from there tyres but as far as I know that's a cruiser thing. It's just that reading through some of the posts on the forum some people aren't happy with the Metzler and I...
I just came across an interesting difference in the late model Roadsters compared to earlier Standards and Classics, as well as the early Roadsters. More compression.
The block is decked .010 inches, the head gasket is now thinner (0.022 in.), and the piston is a different manufacturer, but...

After 50,000 miles and 18 countries on Thunderbird/Storm over the past 4 years I have made the leap. Pick up a new Roadster with red pinstripe next weekend.
Thunderbirds are brilliant but the Roadster fits my gangly frame and the extra 50 ponies are bound to help justify the pulled...
My bike has been in a dealer in Glasgow for the last 3 weeks now .
About 3 months ago I noticed if I drive it hard on a 60 mph road & slow down to 30 mph for a built up area my bike would loose power for a second here & there , also if its raining when I pull my clutch in the speedo drops down...
Hello,
I am considering getting TOR's for my 2013 RIIIR with the goal to give it a deeper sound without being overly loud. I wouldn't mind if this would give me a slight performance increase as well.
Would it be wise (is it mandatory?) to get the "Rocket III TOR tune" to optimize...
Hi folks, needing some help with info about sourcing progressive shocks in the UK for my 2013 R3 Roadster. Love the bike, makes me grin from ear-to-ear when I'm riding, but I find the ride somewhat harsh at times. I'm no lightweight (21 stone / 294lbs / 133 kg of "big bones") and I'm looking...
Any recommendations for a quality Engine Guard? I have read good things about the discontinued Rivco, but I don't even know if it will fit, even if I could find one. Thanks for any help.
Hello,
I am trying to find a suitable rack for my 2013 RIII Roadster so I can install a trunk. For longer trips I am planning to get a large trunk.
I just got off the phone with Wompus Racks (Wompus Bike Racks - Home of Heavy Duty Custom Built Steel Motorcycle Racks) and learned that...
Has anyone had a problem with left brake caliper eating pads. Bikes only done 7000 miles and I'm about to put in third set of pads. The outer pad has about half left but inner pad is down to near metal, again. Was wondering if it could be an ABS fault.
Right hand brake pads are perfect
Has been...
Does anyone have any specific guidelines for aiming the headlights on a Roadster or other dual-headlight versions? I had a look through the service manual and it gives some good instructions on the "how" part, but with the unusual cutoffs for the beam pattern I'm not quite sure about the...
Hi Guys,
First post on ere so "Ello" from Dorset. Quick question from a soon to be keeper of a 2011 Behemoth Roadster:
Are the 2011 models restricted in lower gears and restricted to 120mph? If so is there a quick fix to remove the restrictions?
Cheers in advance
