    It is not a seat but a fairing. No one else makes these for a Rocket 3.

    Oil Filler Cap??

    So, the oil cap has 3 prongs/legs. Depending on how well the plastic panel to which the cap is attached was installed, the little metal insert attached to the plastic panel with 2 small bolts might not lie straight. If there is a little bend to that metal insert, say one of the bolts is...

    Pannier mounting hardware - black?

    There are "bluing" liquids for guns. But they only work on some alloys. Say, if that metal can be blue-ed, you can do a number of bluing sessions, it happens very quickly, you can get it to a very dark blue, almost black. But, not sure if that metal can be blue-ed. Example: Amazon.com

    Pannier mounting hardware - black?

    Based on: https://d2j6dbq0eux0bg.cloudfront.net/images/15688341/4066327401.webp Well, don't paint parts that will rub. I assume all the items that are bolted on. A home paint won't survive, it will peal. If you'll leave at least those parts unpainted, together it will look more presentable than...

    Question re the new 'Storm' models....

    I'd blame the shoes. Proper motorcycles shoes should be designed to withstand heat. Sounds like a design issue. Please consider a different brand.

    Carpenter TXL exhuast

    I am just going to address the looks. It is my own personal feeling that this looks like someone put a Harely Davidson exhaust on a sports bike. While I am sure it will work performance wise, in my view is clashing in looks for the accepted norms. On one hand the general picture of that side of...

    Question re the new 'Storm' models....

    Razorine, I use this ugly solution to keep my leg from developing heat damage in S. Florida: Found a way to keep the radiator heat from cooking my lower leg Yes, it is weird looking, but it does keep my leg from being cooked on a GT peg and from Competition Werkes slip-on heat bubble, when...

    Question re the new 'Storm' models....

    Riding '25 Storm GT in South Florida. No issues with the rear brake. It only squealed for the first 2K miles, but no issues with the pedal travel, no sponginess, zero issues. Edit - more info: One thing I learned with my Rocket is to step on the rear brake harder than on my other lighter bike...

    Ordered Volcano motorcycle seat cover replacement for Rocket 3, very disappointed

    So, I decided to take a risk on Italian craftsmanship, you know, Italian suits, etc.. see how it applies to Rocket 3 seat cover replacement. So, it is basically a cover that you get, 3 pieces, and you undo staples on the stock seat, remove the manufacture's cover, put the new one in, stretch...
