  1. RAA 9 June 2014 Colorado head count

    I got back last night. Cords were showing on the Metz when I pulled into Erico Motorsports in Denver on Friday for a new Bridgestone. What a difference in handling and it corrected the speedo to within 2-3 mph at 80 according to the GPS. My son, grandson and I really enjoyed putting faces to...
  2. Wednesday Bike Night Observation

    We also have the Wednesday bike night at the Quaker Steak and Lube. It is on the same large parking lot as the local Harley dealer and draws probably 600-800 bikes each week. So far I have only seen 1 other Rocket III and that was one time. The balance of bikes are ridden by rugged...
  3. Highway Bars and Adjustable Pegs

    I just put on the Triumph highway bars on my 2005 classic and looked at the Triumph adjustable pegs. I found that the Kuryakyn #7993 pegs had the same range of adjust-ability and I got them on Amazon for $110 shipped rather than almost $200 for the Triumph parts. They seem to be a quality part...

  6. Something else that's not allowed

    I read recently in I think Car & Driver that in a time that American municipalities are dismantling the red light and speed camera systems in record numbers, the Australian police have elevated the art of traffic enforcement into a draconian and highly profitable enterprise with a huge revenue...

  8. Rostra Electronic Cruise Control Installation

    You're the man!!! I worked on this for a while to no success so I placed it on hold as I was not wanting to take the back wheel off at this time(riding season and all that) and have been stripping the paint off of my El Camino and generally doing a full on restoration of it. I am going to order...
  9. $11 per quart!

    Rotella T6 synthetic. It has the proper spec for wet clutch motorcycles ( I think JASMO ) and costs around $21 a gallon at Walmart. I have used it for a long time and it works no problems.
  10. Rostra Electronic (non vacuum) Cruise Control

    I plan on machining an approximately 1/2" diameter spot just above the disc mounting holes on 3 of the 6 spokes that mount the disc to the wheel. I will then fabricate a mount for the pickup out of an aluminum block and mount that to the caliper mounting bracket. The magnets are sourced from...
  11. Rostra Electronic (non vacuum) Cruise Control

    I appreciate all your work. If there is ever anything I can do for you up here please don't hesitate to ask. Looking forward to seeing your successful installation.
  12. Rostra Electronic (non vacuum) Cruise Control

    I did look at the divider you mentioned but I am not technically adept enough to fully understand what it does. The prize I talked of would entail those who are interested in a workable solution, offer to contribute to a fund for the individual who figures it out. Maybe even sell the answer to...
  13. Anyone been to Greenville SC recently?

    I live in Greenville and have had my Rocket for almost 7 years. I have never seen another in town except for the leftovers at Greenville Powersports, Greenville's incognito Triumph dealer. They usually have a good stock of year or two old bikes as no one there really pushes the brand and the...

    http://www.r3owners.net/general-tech-talk/7161-new-electronic-cruise-control-w-wireles-remote.html There is a picture and a link of what someone else has done to hook up the throttle. There is a series of pictures and a long post about how they did it...
  15. Rostra Electronic (non vacuum) Cruise Control

    Anyone? I understand that the Power Commander may also use the vss signal. This has been figured out on almost all the other brand forums, even the bikes that have drive by wire. Check the BMW, Concours 14 , Suzuki and Honda forums, they are all using the Rostra electronic cruise...
