    New Battery

    From what I've read, Sodium Ion batteries are the next phase in battery evolution. This battery isn't really affected by cold like some during cold starts, can be cycled way more times resulting in a longer life span, is much cheaper because of the use of sodium vs lithium and presents...

    Cooee everyone!

    Steve, excellent intro. Glad to have you as part of the asylum. You'll find that most of the group fit into the definition of "Old Men". Ride on brother....

    Rear brake pads

    78,000 kms on my ride and never changed the rear pads yet... Soon though. Spares sitting in the shed.

    Rear wheel bearing, has this been solved?

    Here is some more speculation on the rear wheel topic. Again, it's only an opinion based on what I've experienced. I've included a parts breakdown to help. If you consider how the rear hub is made in the old gen Rocket, we have the final drive complete with 3 brgs (#18, 7, 3), 2 spacers (one...

    Rear wheel bearing, has this been solved?

    Let's see if I can remember everything I've done over the years to my rear wheel. I've had many problems with my rear wheel over the years. My first issue was when the rim split where the circlip retains the wheel brg. This caused the wheel to flex on the axle rubbing the rotor against the...

    Next Gen Rocket 3 spied

    As much as I like the looks of the Gen 2 model along with the 2500cc bragging rights, I still prefer my Gen 1 ride. Bigger gas tank (24 liters - 6 US gallons), better luggage options, windshield options, passenger seats, backrests and is easier to work on (except for rear tire change). I know...

    Help me find a good bagger setup for a 2014 roaster.

    If I had the disposable cash, I'd go with a Corbin setup like Bills. I think they look the best on the Rocket of all I have seen. Having said that, I installed Leatherworks 112BLPOK leather bags fixed to Easybrackets on my ride. These have served me on two trips across Canada. If I was to...

    Interesting oil level check

    The main point is to try and check the level the same way every time. This should give a relativly consistant reading. It's close enough.

    Looking for new map... 2015 x

    If I remember correctly, 20776 was the stock map installed after 2013 on Roadsters. It replaced 20352 as the stock map. I think the only change was removal of the restrictions in several of the gears. I have a 2012 Roadster with Hanso's tune installed. My ride has TORs and a Ramair intake...

    Cracked head, but not what you think

    Could you take a pic from a bit further away. It's hard to see where the leak is on the engine? That way we can zoom in after looking at the surrounding area. I don't think I have ever heard of someone having a crack on the head/valve cover mating surface. I wonder if there is some porosity...

    Rocket 3 clutch issues

    I don't pretend to be an expert on the clutch assembly having never taken mine apart but I'll raise some simple questions. 1. Did you have any freeplay in the clutch cable to lever before the lifter shaft/piece failure? (Trying to determine what caused the lifter shaft/piece weld job) No...
