    Cycle World article

    I see that the writer was impressed with 2500cc being displayed on the valve cover. That is a lot in the normal bike world. In the abnormal bike world the V8 Chopper is considered small with only 5734 cc!

    For touring the floorboards are a must.They allow you to move your feet forward or back a little and on a long ride that little change adds more hours of comfort.

    WHERE DOES THIS ATTACH

    Thank you my friend. I don't think it was connected to the old battery and that may have caused some problem. The bike will still start with out it being connected. in any case I'm happy you replied and it will now be connected.

    WHERE DOES THIS ATTACH

    I was putting a new battery into my 2015 Rocket 3 Touring when I saw this "U" shaped wire connector that looks like it should be connected to something. Can someone please tell me what it connects to. I don't think it was connected to the negative battery post at the time I removed the old...

    CLEARING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT

    It worked in my car after I started the car. I went to try to start the Rocket with the Code Reader plugged in right after I got back from a 20 mile ride. When I started it the light went off without me doing anything! Who am I to question it, I am just happy. Thanks for your help.

    CLEARING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT

    I went to AUTOZONE and bought a CODE READER, it was the cheapest one they had at $59.95. The directions said to plug it in and then turn on the key. That is exactly what I did. Do not start engine. It said READ on the screen but that was it. It showed nothing, I pushed the erase button and it...

    CLEARING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT

    I don't have a smart phone. Is there a tool I can buy that plugs directly into the cable and that has its own screen that would show whatever the code is that made the light come on?

    CLEARING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT

    This morning my 2015 Rocket 3 Touring wouldn't start, the battery was real low, I haven't started the bike for 5 or 6 weeks. It was cold out this morning but later when it was warmer it started it. I rode it about two miles and the check engine light came on. I am trickle charging the battery...

    You know you want that solid transmission with sixth gear upgrade . . .

    As far as the touring goes I would like to have a 6th gear if the factory would have put it in. I don't think its worth tearing down and everything else to get one now. I ususally cruise at 85 mph and the 5 speed is fine for that. We have another little piece of property with a trailer on it in...
