    Rocket fork seals

    That's the way I've always installed seals, spring in, but for some reason my Rocket had the springs out from the factory. They originally lasted over 10 years and 75k without leaking so I installed them the same way. The Youtube video I just posted shows the old seals in the Rocket being...

    Rocket fork seals

    Take a look at this excellent YouTube video of a Rocket 111 fork seal replacement. At the 10.27 min mark this fellows shows how he orients the seal. He places the spring down. I followed this video to replace mine a year ago with no problems.

    12 Minute Tune

    Tune ECU works fine on my laptop equiped with Windows 10. The only thing I have to do is under Options, then Interface, choose USB instead of Serial.

    12 Minute Tune

    All of the items suggested are valid points. Any one of them could have addressed your problem. The ideas usually come out in droves and should be welcomed however, you took your time and did what requesters should always do... analyse and go with the easy fixes first in a systematic order...

    Differential oil after 2000 miles

    looks nice and clean. How much fine metallic stuff was on the magnetic plug? My first change had the largest amount of filings present (which wasn't alot) but with continued changes, gradually dropped next to nothing... This is normal as your final drive breaks in.

    Rebuilding motorcycle after timing chain skip 62K Km

    Are you going to resurface those valve faces? I can't believe how pitted they are. I imagine the seats in the head are similar.

    Crazy ignition skip under load

    Can you get your hands on one coil/lead combo. Use it as a test, swapping each coil at a time to see if you can isolate the potential coil issue??? You can also test the resistance of the coils on the primary and secondary side but this doesn't always catch leaking insolation on the secondary...

    Gas cap won't open at all

    With the 1st gen Rockets I like the fact that one key is needed to open the gas cap and run the bike. This is super convient because I know where the ignition/gas cap key is at all times (in the ignition or gas cap)... Since the bike has to be shut down to fuel up (in our province) I know I...

    Coolant Choices

    This is what I use. It is an HOAT coolant which is what the early Rockets called for. I imagine the new ones would use the same. PS. The color of the coolant usually doesn't mean anything (unlike the old days). The make up of the coolant determines if it can be mixed, not the color. If...
