    Enter The Kawasaki Zed H2...

    Thanks for the pics and info. Cool bike but its front end is a bit bizarre . I have the Ninja 1000SX (similar genes to this one) and my issue with that bike is that even after changing seats twice it ends up pushing me forward in the seat to an uncomfortable riding position . This bike...

    On a positive note..

    Beautiful Bike. Sad that it was not used. I had to give up my 2002 Daytona 955i because it just did not work for me any more (too uncomfortable) . Funny to see all of the other comments along similar lines here

    Shock suggestions

    I installed Hagon Nitros. Built to order and to your weight and desired ride height for no extra cost. Very fast delivery from UK and a good price since exchange rate USD to pond sterling is so good for Americans right now . Original shockers were.... shockingly bad ;-) but I was expecting...

    Triumph is in trouble

    The ironic thing here is that history is repeating itself. Triumph ignored the small bike market and gave that away to Honda etc... That allowed Honda to develop the 750 four and that was game over for Triumph... Here we are 50 years on and India / China are the new "Japan" and Royal Enfield is...

    And that is when the bike rolled off its sidestand and broke my man parts !

    Let there be light!!!

    New headlights are a necessity . I have a couple of the cheap ones currently but may upgrade to JW adaptive later. To be honest I dont do enough night riding on the Rocket to justify the price . It is ludicrous that they charge $1000 for a pair and yet you can buy 2 in a package for a Harley...

    RAA East 2020 West Virginia

    Its really strange to see US response to this I work with a team of about 600 people around the world, in China, Japan, Europe and they are all in same boat and they are dealing with lockdown and trying to get on with their lives and jobs . I have folks in Sofia in Bulgaria where the city is in...

    Looking for guidance on correct tune for my R3R (Looks like I have a 2013 R3R bought new in 2018)

    Thanks everyone ! I went with the 2014 and onwards tune (Hans0 tune for 2014+ Roadster, TORS, triple /Ramair filters etc) Installed the new map, ran 12 minutes then went out for run and it seems to be running really well ! Power delivery seems smoother throughout, goes like a ... well, like...

    Looking for guidance on correct tune for my R3R (Looks like I have a 2013 R3R bought new in 2018)

    Looking for guidance on correct tune for my R3R (Looks like I have a 2013 R3R bought new in 2018)

    Thank you Bike shows build date of 09/17 so it is 2014+ vintage but the VIN number is the odd part since when I look at TUNE ECU pages it breaks out : Rocket III Roadster 2300cc / up to VIN # 574812 / Keihin ECU Rocket III Roadster 2300cc / from VIN # 574813 / Keihin ECU - So going by VIN...

    Looking for guidance on correct tune for my R3R (Looks like I have a 2013 R3R bought new in 2018)

    I have been looking through available information in the forums and I am struggling with the definition of earlier vs later models of the Rocket 3 Roadster for use with Tune ECU I bought my Roadster new at the end of 2018 but the VIN ends in 857443 which looks like that means it is an earlier...

    side views of the TFC R3

    Yes. Really nice evolution of the design but at this stage I dont see it as a good replacement for my Rocket 3 Roadster or my Trophy 1200SE Weather protection is negligible Back end gets filthy in rain and passenger gets heavily sprayed Needs mudguard extension Back seat is a joke for...
