    Buggered Air Valve Stem

    I recently bought a 2015 Rocket III Roadster and having a great time removing the prior owner's stuff and installing the stuff I prefer. One of those preferences is FOBO Bike Tire pressure sensors. I installed T valves onto the Rocket's right angle valves as I have done in the past on my '06...

    2006 Rocket 3 Key Relocation Harness

    I have an '06 classic model and suffered off and on with the ignition switch not working thanks to solder joints melting. Replaced with a keyless ignition by DeCosse, but it too wasn't 100% reliable. I now have the Digital Dawg keyless system and so far very good. Just a thought as an...

    Floorboards For 2015 Rocket III Roadster?

    I bought one, expecting delivery this week, possibly on Thanksgiving Day(HaulBikes the shipper, they say 25, 26 or 27th, swell), groan, I am supposed to be 30 miles away for dinner that day but may need to skip that and incur my wife's and relative's wrath. Anyway, back in the day Rivco had...

    Rocket 3 2005 Handlebar clock

    My '09 Ultra Harley's speedo/odo still works fine after 70,000 miles. I wish Triumph could do the same. My compensation is the fact that my Rockets easily smoke any Harley on the road! :):thumbsup:

    Rocket 3 2005 Handlebar clock

    After going through the miserable task of raising the tank and removing the guts in order to tweak the float mechanism I now know that when the gauge is on empty and going down into the red hash marks I still have about 2 gallons of go juice left.....that is if I happen to look at the gauge...

    Rocket 3 2005 Handlebar clock

    I have one on my 2006 Classic, maintains perfect time somehow. Also have the matching gas gauge. Have no idea where or if they are still attainable.

    Got a "Brake Free" helmet brake light.

    I have one on the back of my Sena modular which already has a static red light on the lower back edge. I was concerned the Brake Free might add too much weight but turns out I do not feel any weight difference. I do what I can to add more lights on the back of my bikes to improve my survival...

    Voltage, fuel, clock, temperature indicator for Rocket III 2006.

    My clock gauge always amazes me because it is ALWAYS dead on accurate and matches my apple watch to the minute, weird. I adjusted my gas gauge years ago by bending the float rod and I am satisfied with it when showing empty or nearly so because I now know it still has about 1.5 to2 gallons...

    Resurrection!

    A few years ago the speedometer on my '06 Rocket Classic stopped working. I fiddled with the harness, relays and fuses and was eventually convinced that something internal crapped out and nothing short of a new gauge would fix it. So, not willing to spend $500 plus for the only new or used...

    I hate key fobs

    I'm curious about the passive VS smart key. What is the difference? I recently installed a keyless system on my '06 RIII Classic. The FOB can be programmed to automatically energize the ignition with the FOB in my pocket if I am within approx. 10' of the bike. It can also be programmed to...

    My wife *****es daily about me needing hearing aids so that might be just the perfect sound for me. :thumbsup:

    For Sale 2008 Rocket III Touring with 210HP Carpenter Racing engine.

    Sold my '08 Touring a few years ago, regret giving into my wife about having too many bikes. No such thing of course. Can you post a video of the bike running so I can get an idea about the exhaust note?

    Ignition Switch?

    I certainly understand that. The ignition on my 2006 Classic with only 21000 miles on it failed within 2 weeks after I bought it back in 2018. That is when I joined this forum and learned the good. the bad and the ugly about the Rocket III. After learning about the problem and options for...

    Ignition Switch?

    I replaced my ignition with the Guard Dawg keyless plug and play unit a few days ago. I went to their Web site and messaged them with questions and they steered me to the correct model with exactly the right connectors for my 2006 Classic. I had trouble figuring out which connector was for the...

    What have you done to your R3T lately

    Update: I had forgotten to try using the second Key FOB that came with The Guard Dawg(they call it an, "RFID TAG"). When I did try the second "TAG" remote unit everything worked as designed in both manual and automatic mode. That made me think the first FOB/TAG I tried, that only worked when...
