    R3R real axle bolt stripping

    I dropped my 2013 R3R at the dealer for a tire change and they managed to strip the axle bolt. Now I'm waiting for parts to be shipped from the mother ship. Is this something any of you have experienced? I have not heard of this happening. Thoughts?

    Roadster Front Tire Wear

    Hey folks, just ordered Avon Cobra Chromes for the Rocket front n rear. Not too many options out there. The Metz cup like nothing else, esp up front. 6 sets across 3 bikes 1 tire did not have cupping, the others as low as a 1000 miles and as high as 2500 miles. Let's see how the Avon does. Any...

    Welcome from VA, beware of the 3rd Gear. The Rocket likes to misbehave on 3rd and the wide rear is too thin to handle it ;)

    2014 R3R begins to start, then cuts off

    No need to disassemble the switch, some pressurized air would do it. It definitely seems like the battery. See my earlier post about CCAs.

    Its usually the CCA Cold Cranking Amps (rather than just the voltage). Looked at the Video, seems like the battery to me too. Cheers

    If you are still working on it, try pressurized air in the switch. Looks like a ground issue to me too, the switch is likely the culprit. Some WD 40 may help too

    It’s growing on me!

    A lil too modern for my tastes, but hey, if it speaks to you, 2500 cc is nothing to scoff at until the 3 litre version comes around Ride safe n enjoy!

    Check the latest pics, I painted them, same placement, they're not bothering me anymore. I took the stock horn off. Have a mount point now wonder what I can stick in there, maybe lights

    Ok, try this :) took the red uglies off n painted them graphite. Also got replacement mufflers from Cycleworks in NZ, a cross pipe from Paul Bryant (Paul was very kind to coordinate both of these), kinda sorta tuned it and off we go!!

    Folks, installed a pair of Hella twin tones (Cager Wake Up Alarm) @118db. Love the music but not totally sold on the placement. Take a quick peek at the pic and lemme know what you think of the looks / ideas for alternate placement are welcome too. Thx in advance for you time. Cheers
