    Oil Check on 2020 R3R

    It was still under warranty for the oil change, so not a big deal. Luckily I didn't go on a long ride, and was just a short day trip with multiple stops.

    Oil Check on 2020 R3R

    OK so follow up. The oil was leaking somewhere out of the front, behind the water cooler. I got down to remove the lower water cooler section, and it was missing a screw. Removing the other screws and started to peel back the water cooler, could see puddles of oil around the filter. Above...

    Oil Check on 2020 R3R

    Keychain Ring?

    huh, I thought I posted a pic. Guess not! Anyways, instructions I said above. And now my keyring is all nice and loose and floppy, doesn't bind at all.

    Keychain Ring?

    So I ended up getting a braided wire keyrings off Amazon. I had to take the back cover off the fob, unscrew the mainboard, and pry it up, propping a guitar pick under it to hold it up, while I tucked the braid in. P.S. Typical Amazon, I wanted one for $5, but got fifty. Gave the rest to my...

    Adding the 2020 GT backrest to a 2020 R

    So I added the backrest to my R using these instructions. I got it installed, it is a little misaligned, so I'm going to take it off and redo it. I had a couple of questions. Apologies of these are too basic :D Page 7, Step 11. Placing the upper tie bar. So the picture shows the tar bow...

    Keychain Ring?

    This is kind of stupid .... but .... the default keyring on the Rocket 3 is really flimsy and weak. The keyfob itself is terrible for keychain attachment. My daughter gave me a really cool Boeing/NASA "Remove Before Flight" red pull handle to go on the keychain. I want something stout, but...

    Helmet Lock?

    Thread necro, sorry! After all this time, has anyone tried the lamonstergarage lock mentioned at the beginning of the thread? Seems a lot of money, but does sound A LOT better than the gun lock :D (Using the gun lock myself now)

    Keep hitting the high beam switch

    I wasn't terribly worried about it, just like to be making a conscious choice, and not an accidental choice :). Adjustment of my controls has mostly resolved it!
