Just picked up a new Rocket III Roadster... Love it. Got suckered into the deal when I was taking one of my other bikes in for service and got a R3T for a loaner.

I also have:

MY10 MV Agusta F4
2007 Ducati Monster S4RS

I spent my whole life on cruisers, switched to sport bikes, and it feels good to have a cruiser again, especially riding out in the cold like yesterday.

Anyone have any experience with the heated grips for the R3C? I'm thinking I need some.

P.S. I would be very interested if anyone wanted to swap their classic foot peg mounts for the Roadster ones. I understand it can be a bit involved.

Thanks

leigh.
 
Welcome to the forum. I have a set of Standard pegs/rails.
 
Lucky you getting 'suckered' into buying a Roadster .. maybe stay away from life insurance salesmen and time-share promoters Welcome from Australia.... Sucker
 
Welcome from Scotland.Enjoy yer new Rocket.
 
Honey I'm home. Yeah, dropped the bike in for a service but guess what? While I was there they told me I needed a new bike. . And all they had was the largest production bike on the planet. Oh we'll, I'm stuck with it now.

Love it. Welcome from Downunder.

Heated grips in Texas?????
 
Welcome from San Antonio area.. Yes.. it's cold here!.. I've comtemplated heated grips at times but never got them. We only have to worry about the next 5-6 weeks.. and even then, there will be warm days in between..
 
It fricken snowed here today... climate change huh?

@Tomcat: Suckered might be a harsh word cause I'm totally in love with the thing. Riding my F4 -- it's like -- Richard Hammond said it best about the old Lambos: "This is a [bike] that you just know is trying to kill you." The R3R is just a pleasure and all I have to worry about is everyone else trying to kill me.


I'll be in ANZ in late feb, on tour, Perth, Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, 2 weekends in brisbane riding with local friends, and my pals from the MV club there -- Last time all I could find to hire was like a 700 Naked Ninja (or whatever they call them, don't exist in the states) know where I could get a proper bike, (sport or cruiser?)
