Updated Rocket 3 be Released?

[Azisbest]

For me the flyscreen is perfect...it isnt meant to be a windscreen as such...if you want a bigger windstopper then ride a goldwing or an Indian!...this isnt a bagger, its a muscle/cruiser..Bloody hell!...once upon a time we rode bikes without any form of a screen...wind in the face is what its all about. All this talk about changing the whole bike to what its not designed to be...My thinking is any updates to the Rocket will only be obvious...The rear brake issue sorted...different colours...maybe a better rear shock absorber and with suspension which changes when the road modes are changed like the Tigers and the choices to alter dampening etc via the menu..... The last thing i want to see is the Rocket going the same way as Indians, Harley Baggers, Goldwings etc.

For you the fly screen is perfect, kudos. For me the windscreen is much better and I dont want a goldwing or an Indian. If you rode a lot of miles I think you would change your mind but to each his own.. But if you dont like any protection buy a bobber.

I will take a windshield, I ride lots of miles not just to the nearest pub.

I ride 25000 km yearly without the front sail. In 7 years I rode 125000 km, so probably nearest pub to me is in Ushuaia, heheh.

So in essence make a new Rocket. Bigger tank, make pegs for people over a size 5 foot, rear brakes that work. windshield would be nice and have Penniers tune put in at the factory. Maybe make the exhaust a little louder and for Gods sake make a horn that has reached puberty.

I bought Denali Sound bomb mini. Good investment.

I would like to have larger tank capacity and classic looking (even lcd) dual gauge speedometer. And yes, panniers really worth the bike and money they ask!

I eas also not friend of keyless system but I found perfect solution for me.

Why do I think you dont ride a lot of miles? Just a guess. So you have not added a thing to your Rocket? Impressive. I like the way they made them too but I have changed a few things including as windshield and glad I did.

I have 103,000 kms on my 2020 gt. Love my windscreen. You for sure ride more than most with no windscreen in my experience. Nice. Although I will say your math is a bit off.

Range is actualy short, so larger fuel capacity is reasonable update for every rider.

If hadle grips of R3R come close a little each other and grip ends direct backward a little, I guess average riders feel more comfortable. If such handlebar would be used on the updated model plus if the handlebar can be installed on current R3R, I want to switch handlebar.

I wish part replacement allows to enlarge lean angle limit too.
