  1. New Battery

    My old battery went to **** and I'm looking for an upgrade. I'm wanting to swap to a LiFePo4 battery (I live in an always warm/hot desert). Any recommendations? What are the minimum cold cranking amps required for this bike? I've found a few that will fit but they seem to be kind of in the low...
  2. My thoughts on crashing the Rocket 3 at Bonneville

    This crash at Bonneville has been haunting me for a few weeks, so I wanted to take one more look at it in this video. Honestly I'm still confused but I'll move on. Bottom line as an experienced Bonneville Salt Flats racer I should have not used up all the safety margin. Lesson learned about...

  4. '23 Rocket 3 GT - Parking Lot Tip Over - No Damage!

    Howdy, A while back a car was backing out of a parking space and didn't see me on my '23 Rocket and didn't stop until she had jackknifed my front tire and I had to set it down on the left side. I have a Verex 3 into 1 so there is no exhaust on the left, and I was able to set it down pretty...

  8. Rocket 3 Quickshifter

    Hi, I recently had my GT foot controls moved from front to mid; since then my quickshifter hasn’t felt as smooth as it did when it was at the front. It has sort of a clunking into gear feeling when it fully actuates, I can make it smoother again by very lightly feathering the gear change...
  9. How is 2023 Rocket 3 in terms of riding that includes sudden maneuvers and sudden stops?

    Hi Everyone, I wanted to know does the weight of Rocket 3 hinder the bike from being agile enough for cruiser? On scale of 1 (not agile) to 10 (very agile) for cruisers where would you rate Rocket 3? Moreover, lets say someone comes in front you suddenly and you have to brake suddenly, or do a...
  10. Rocket 3 replacement handlebars

    Hi folks, currently have the older 2.3L Rocket 3 Roadster (2016) but I truly hate the original bars, and want a lower option that brings my 6' 3" frame a little out of the wind, say standard 22mm (flatter) road bars. Has anyone have recommendations on the best bars to get. Love the bike but any...

  13. New 2023 Rocket 3 GT

    I'm picking it up later this week and would like to know if it's going to be a mistake or a blessing. I'm the original owner of a 1983 Honda V-65 Magna which still screams and think will beat or still stay up with this machine. It's lighter and a lot more nimbler then this beast but it's old...

  15. Rocket 3

    FYI When I was cleaning and doing maintenance on the bike, I found this wire that needed to be rerouted because it was a little too tight. It was an easy fix, but I had to disconnect the safety switch for the kickstand. When taking the two screws out, which was a little harder than normal I...

  19. TomTom to the Rocket 3GT

    I usually run 10 to 20 years behind any new tech so just now exploring gps devices. Being a skeptical owner with the limited fuel range it is reassuring to know where the next gas station is or the nearest repair shop. So looking for something motorcycle friendly I decided on trying the TomTom...
  20. Rocket 3 R Standard Key not recognized post delivery

    It's been two months since I got the bike but recently tried to check the standard key operating fine or not. Neither one of the two factory supplied keys are recognized by the bike! They open seat cover top and fuel tank though. Keyless FOB works pretty well. The rear mudguard left side swipe...
