  3. NOS: 75 HP: $500 approx..

  5. NOS: 75 HP: $500 approx..

    good point how much nitrous can the stock pistons take reliably..Pistons are usually the the weak link...unless the top ring land is extremely thin, at a compression ratio of 8.7:1 the piston should be able to handle the extra cylinder pressure.. are people using superchargers or turbos on...
  6. Resistor Mod?

  10. Its Time

    Bought my rocket in 05..get a new bike every 3 years and guess what? 5 years later and it is still top dog..so..guess I will have to up the ante myself with the help of the my fellow Rocket III crazies on R3owners.com.....I always need more and 5 years is long enough even for me...your wisdom...
