    Lithium Battery Woes

    This comment by me was in reaction to a reply I received that struck me as completely irrelevant to what I was asking for. Apparently that post was removed because I don't see it anymore.

    Lithium Battery Woes

    Ironically they are the battery company I wanted to deal with when I first started shopping for a lithium battery. I can't remember exactly why I decided to pass on them but know they told me they did not have a battery with the features I wanted that would be appropriate for my '15 Roadster...

    Lithium Battery Woes

    6 months ago I bought a Lithium Hub Iconic battery and charger for my 2015 Rocket Roadster, ABS. $156.00, huge bargain to me. It has performed without a problem until this morning. Backed out of the garage and it would not start, no ignition, no power. After calling my biker buds and...

    What jacks are we using to get these things off the ground?

    I've found my flat bed scissor jack to be far more practical and less time consuming for most of my maintenance, parts swapping and cleaning/polishing jobs than my full blown bike lift.

    How Long Have You Owned Your Rocket

    Can't remember when I bought my first Rocket, a '06 Classic. I'd guesstimate 8 or 9 years ago. Has approximately 38,000 miles now and still runs great. Replaced the crappy ignition with a keyless system. The speedo/odometer stopped working a year or so ago and replaced with a GPS...

    First gear problems

    I've had my 2015 Roadster ABS a couple months and only ridden it a couple times but each time I've had the poop scared out of me when it popped out of first into neutral. Each time I was half way through a slow left hand turn from a stop light. **** near fell over each time. I am already older...

    How To Close The Gap

    Thank you for the diagrams. Now I have a much better idea of what is involved and what to look for. I have been blind in my right eye for several months due to a cataract in that eye, one of the worst my surgeon had ever seen. Thanks to his surgery last thursday I have good vision again...

    How To Close The Gap

    Okay, I think your thumbs up mean you understand what I am talking about, great. I only inquire about this because because I try to spare my 78 year old arthritis ridden body the need to lay down and do stuff on my bikes before knowing what the consequences are. I will now try loosening that...

    How To Close The Gap

    Here is the left side showing muffler to heat shield joint, but there in no gap at that joint. I have seen historical pictures covering about 10 years of this same bike, 2015 Roadster ABS, before I bought it, and there are no gaps at those joints between the muffler and heat shield on both...

    How To Close The Gap

    YES! Exactly. The left side, muffler and heat shield it butts up to do not have that gap you circled on the right side. The right side muffler projects that same gap distance of approximately one inch beyond the left side muffler exhaust end. Will attempt to attach better photos. I will...

    How To Close The Gap

    Okay, I was afraid of that. I'll try to circle the area with the gap I am talking about and post higher res photos. Thanks.

    12 Minute Tune

    If so, I don't doubt you, however, why does my manual say this about idle and the 12 minute tune?: "Typical Values In a correctly adapted motorcycle, the following will be typical: Function Examined Read Out, Closed throttle position reference Adapted status Idle speed control adaption...

    How To Close The Gap

    There is a gap about one inch wide between the right side muffler and the heat shield on my '15 Roadster. I see a bolt attaching a bracket on the muffler to a bracket on the bike but not seeing how to move the muffler forward to close the gap. Is there an elongated slot in that chromed muffler...
