Here she is!!!!!

I finally pulled the trigger tonight!! 2006 Rocket III Classic. Low miles and a lot of upgrades. Thanks everyone here for helping and answering my questions. This bike is up to date on all services and recalls. 100% dealer services including the $$$ services. Way to many upgrades to bore you with except the fun ones. Cat delete and under seat K&N. He said the dealer did both way back when and flashed the ECU.
The bike has 22,000 miles and is pretty much spotless.

Waahhhh 2900 for that Classic is a steal, flat out. It has the best back rest and saddle and the best ridding position.

Thank you everyone. From what I see so far:

K&N filter (I ordered a Ram Air last night)
Pullback risers
Gas gauge
Drivers backrest
Progressive suspension up front, not sure yet about back shocks

He gave me all his paperwork since buying the bike new. It lists the valve clearance checks and what they changed, leaking fork seal
fixed with Progressive suspension components added.

...and more I'll look at tonight.

Be careful installing the RamAir. My throttle problems started when I made that mod. Don't know why. I think the MAP needs to be protected/hung away from the heat of the cam cover. Revisit all your connectors with dielectric grease. Use lock washers on your battery terminals. Get your LoneTech cable, a PC and TuneECU so you can check your TPS. Consider replacing the vacuum tubes that connect the MAP to the motor. Try the bike with just a 12 min tune before you start loading TUNES and changing pipes and headers and stuff. Front and rear suspensions have been upgraded! I'm sorry for the folk that had to sell it. Good for you tho. Spray clean and rinse with S100 and detail with F11 with a new microfiber rag. Ahhh and get one of the remaining Jack-B-Quick to be able to lift you bike without applying full force to the bottom pan.

Congrats. I had one just like that.

btw, you can also get internal supports for the saddlebags to stop them drooping.

Buying the bike is just the downpayment on the accessories.

Do you have a link to the supports? The bags are in sad shape.

Congrats on a nice deal. Nice bike. I agree with the rest on here. Good move on the RamAir.

Pity it isn't blue, though.

He may be a bit difficult to get hold of, but well worth it when you do.

Get rid of the bags unless you use them all the time. Flipmeister sells stiffening kits. The leather can be revived. I sold mine almost new. Use canvas throw overs and a bag for the raingear when we are ridding with Jay and Anthony.



07 Classic almost stock. 50k miles.
