  1. Engine Management Malfuction light

    I can only testify to the 08 R3T...If I start it up and it does not stay running and dies..and I re-start before the computer recycles thru all the circuits, then the engine light comes on and will stay on for 10 minutes plus..give or take! Now I make sure it cycles thru before hitting the start...

  2. Radiator leaking new bike

    I had the same leak on that hose on my Rocket @30,000 miles.Tightened the hose.re-sprayed the block with black engine paint and all was well.At 40,000 mile check-up,I had my dealer install 4 hoses($78) and replaced them all for my peace of mind..so far so good.Not unusual for hoses to vibrate...

  9. Extra Baffles for Jardine Rumblers?

    Harry is right..they are only wrapped on the side of the insert..I re-wrapped mine with exhaust wrap and quieted mine down considerable..My suggestion is to install and ride..you may be more tolerable than me..buy some good earplugs and enjoy the sound.Too loud and I can sell you my...

  10. Extra Baffles for Jardine Rumblers?

    Jardines There is a baffle built in those rumblers for the Rocket Touring..I have them on my 08.They were way too loud for me and I had an exhaust shop build me a set of exhaust augers for my pipes.The stock baffles were hard to get out as they are wedged forward to the curve of the pipe...I...

  11. R3T fuel

    I burn Chevron Regular with Techron and have 42,000+ and no adverse effects...use the Star Tron Enzyme when traveling as not always Chevron available.Premium is a waste of money(and maybe Star Tron Too!!!)
