    2.3L Cast Iron rear disc Rotor

    EBC do a rear for the 2.3, not sure if Brembo do one I couldn't find one
  2. R-III-R Turbo

    Ecu problem, I think.

    Would be probably the first failed ECU I've heard of in Rockets. Though I had one brick one time when the map file was corrupt. Presume you have done a spark test?
  3. R-III-R Turbo

    Ecu problem, I think.

    Hmm could it be a dodgy switch like clutch or sidestand for example? If you wish to download the map out of the ECU, you just need ignition on (and on a battery charger because it takes several minutes to download)

    For Sale TuneBoy USB to OBDII Cable

    Iirc this will work for TuneECU too

    High milage RIII misfire & idle issues

    Oh.. in that case, replace and set primary TPS before you do anything else..

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    I think that was mentioned previously when initially engaging this guy and was a no go. He has the dyno in a trailer, operates a mobile dyno, around to track days and rallies etc. Which is what's limiting its length.

    Good to know. The guy over in Kerry who is supposed to be good, is on the approved Dynojet tuner list that came with my friend's PC6. But his dyno is too short unfortunately, I don't know what model it is but the length wasn't up to a Rocket anyway. He's had same dyno the past 25 years.

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    I did a run a week ago with TuneECU hooked up to the phone and monitored coolant temperature. Sat at a steady 88°C out on the road. It got hot quickly (mid 90s or so) once not moving, but cooled back down again once moving. So that's proof the dyno guy was using that as an excuse, he said the...

    High milage RIII misfire & idle issues

    How did you go with setting the primary TPS after? Also I forgot to ask if you or the shop replaced the primary TPS? the 04-09 Rockets had a primary TPS that is prone to going faulty, causing these issues. The newer revision of the part is good. The early Rockets also had a recall on the ECU...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    Me either. But there are like 2 maybe 3 dynos in the Republic / within 3 hours from here. One guy is supposed to be good but dyno is too short for a Rocket. These guys are the other 'good' shop. and there is talk of another but I can't find much info. I'm thinking... UK would be good but far...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    The shop is unfortunately widely considered good, no bad regiews and my past experience was good... but sadly 99% of the business in this country is sport bikes with a new exhaust on it. Like the factory map was 100% right (ignore trade offs for noise & emissions regs), you stick an aftermarket...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    I think it'll be something simple like a jubilee needing a squeeze. But im really getting the hint that they just don't want to do this bike. Why, is beyond me.. But I'll ask tomorrow when I get there (2 hour drive), and hopefully fix the coolant drip in the parking lot. The other 2 'obstacles'...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    Houston, we have a problem. The dyno shop phoned up this evening to tell me the bike has a coolant leak and leaked coolant on the dyno. OK so my run of bad luck continues; 4th thing to go wrong in 0 miles, after a few thousand miles of zero problems since the build. Also, they told me that...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    Happy birthday dude 🍻🎂 I'm trying not to think about guessing what it will make. Chances are, they'll have a misfire issue or a coolant leak or something annoying that I'll have to go and fix before they can run it properly. That and these things are usually less than you'd like. Was thinking...

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    You are correct, 2 of the plugs are DR9EA, which are the non protruding tip version of the DPR9EA9 (the other 4). I can't remember why but I think they were mixed like that when I bought them. Not sure re the belt, the new one is a lot thicker than the old one, even from when the old one wasn't...
