New Rocket 3 pilot from Norway

Welcome. Yeah, the mileage is supposed to be pretty tamper resistant, so people don't wind it back and defraud buyers I guess.

Norway is an amazing country to ride in. The season is short, sure, but on nice days in the summertime it's probably the best riding anywhere in the world, or at least right up there. Except for the crazy speeding laws, worse than Finland, which takes some doing.

Hello everyone!
I got my Rocket 3, 2005 model just before winter time last year. Now I have been out riding a couple of times, and I really have to say: I love this bike!! It's so full of power and attitude!
I have one little issue though, wonder if someone knows. One of the earler owners had to replace the speedometer at odometer reading 16000 km. At the time I bought the mc the odometer showed 8000 km. So my question is: Does someone know have to wind the odometer reading forward? I would of course reach the real reading at 24000 km.
Anyone? Thanks for a wonderful forum!
Hi r3jb, it is good to see other R3 pilots from Norway! I know only 2 R3 in the North-Norway. Contact me trough FB.
 
Velkommen! Hvor i vårt langstrakte land holder du til?

Welcome! Where in our long country do you live?

For the mileage, I am not an expert on the electronics of these bikes, but with cars I have known this problem to occur if the instrument cluster is incorrectly replaced, and the new one not coded in with the correct mileage. Don't know if this applies to the R3s

Hello fellow norwegians Kjell Uno Sandvik and Loonitick. Nice to hear from other countrymen. I live in Tønsberg :)
 
Ah, not too far from me then at least. I am in Bærum at the moment, will be moving to a bit north of Kongsberg at some point this year.

I live in Lofoten islands, and to r3jb:My code reader takes Opel cars and also Rocket 3. I guess a odometer correction tool to this car can have the potential to your fix problem?
I don`t know if the odometer is stored in the ECU or in the speedometer.
