    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    I get where you are coming from on this one. I've ridden bikes that are as fast but it's just not the same. It's easy to make a bike fast when that is the sole purpose of the bike, but they feel sterile compared. Making just about the biggest/heaviest bike on the market also one of the quickest...

    stealership rising costs of oil change

    People pay others to do what some consider a simple task for all sorts of valid reasons, anyone who struggles to understand this and gives you a hard time for paying needs to consider that other people have different experiences and circumstances than them (I know, shocking right?). If you're...

    Rmoving injectors to clean

    Give it a good dose of injector cleaner and an Italian tune, it's way more fun than pulling injectors and is mostly like going to fix the issue. That's my philosophy anyway.

    Evil Knievel Rocket 3 Edition

    I certainly want to (and am considering it), I think it looks fantastic. I know it is a lot of extra money for what is basically a fancy paint job, but I love it.

    Plastic “sub-loaf bread” part on my ‘22GT

    You can get brushed aluminum vinyl wrap, not sure how well it would match the rest of the brushed aluminum on the bike though.

    Plastic “sub-loaf bread” part on my ‘22GT

    Not sure about removing it, but you could find some who does vinyl wraps and get them to cover it. If that helps?

    Opinion wanted, course of action R3T running like a Harley!!!

    This, 100%. Take it out and give it hell for a few hours, a proper Italian tune. It is the funnest repair you will ever do. After that if the problem persists start to look into it more, you don't want to dig into a problem that may clear with a decent ride.

    Issues changing to 2nd gear

    In my limited experience so far the easiest way to diagnose the detent spring is to accelerate hard and then suddenly back off the accelerator. The bike will drop out of gear and into neutral regardless of the gear it is in when you do it.

    Starting issues

    I'm going to assume you have a bad connection at the battery which drops out under load since the issue started when you change the battery, if it is a problem not related to changing the battery that started when you changed the battery then you have a miracle on your hands. You can check for...
