    Gas cap won't open at all

    I never did have an issue with it ever again but I also never locked it again after that. My first service is coming up here next month though I plan to ask. Also ask about why my kick stand is turning purple lol

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    Passed the 8 month mark! Aside from the fuel cap not wanting to unlock has been rather trouble free. Summers here are hot as can be but exploring the mountain roads on this beast during the summer is fun.

    Where oh where are all the Rockets?

    Aside from mine and the ones I have seen sitting at dealers I have seen all of one out in the wild being ridden here in Japan. Was walking up a street in Tokyo and out of the corner of my eye saw one rip by. Didn't get a good look but I know a Rocket when I see one. Will have to go to a...

    Gas cap won't open at all

    Since this popped up again just wanted to add since I posted about it not opening in March it turns out when I did get it opened at that time I guess I never locked it with the key when I put the cap back on so I have had no more issues with removing the cap since. Though I haven't also tried...

    What do you think about the riding modes? Do you find them useful?

    I love my quick shifter! Easily worth the cost for this bike especially I think. I avoided using it the first hundred km on the bike as the dealer suggested but have finally started to use it and its so smooth. I think even more-so than the one on my ZX4RR especially that 1-2 shift.

    What do you think about the riding modes? Do you find them useful?

    I've only had mine for a few months now and even then due to being busy/weather haven't been able to ride it all that much so still well below the break in. Started off leaving it in rain mode when I picked it up but after the first few hundred KM on it finally moved over to road mode. Still...

    Gas cap won't open at all

    Rears are not as good as on my Ninja ZX4RR for sure but to be fair I really haven't ridden it that much to really make a better judgement. I figured just being bigger and heaver (and really this is my first time with such a big and heavy bike) that this is just how things are with these kinds...

    Gas cap won't open at all

    If I can get it off again I don't think I will do so again either...

    Gas cap won't open at all

    Wanted to revive an old thread as I had this happen to me last weekend hah. New bike first time I went for the fill up. Actually I remember the dealer showing how to unlock it when I bought it so I had done it once already at home and it had no issue opening up so I thought nothing of it then...

    Competition Werkes now offers a blackout laser cut logo

    Thank you for this info. As a fellow black Storm owner the Werkes black exhaust was at the top of my list for what to switch to but also would prefer either no logo or a blacked out one like you got. Also definitely would need/want blacked out baffles.

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    Felt better over the weekend and managed to take it out for a ride up into the mountains a bit. Really enjoy riding this thing and it carries its weight pretty well for being as large as it is. As you can imagine as there really aren't many of these around on the roads here it seems to get...

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    Happy New Year! I was hoping to be able to ride it a bit more this week since I am off but as luck would have it I ended up catching a nasty bug that has been going around here. :sick:

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    Hah! Actually this is the 'oomori' version too which is what they call a larger serving. Trust me though it's pretty filling!

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    They actually do! Not part of the test but when you do the lessons and test through a riding school like I did they do check that you are capable of it. It was actually something I did on the very first lesson day for the medium class license (up to ~400cc which you need to do before you can...

    New Rocketeer in Japan this Christmas!

    Bike has been delivered! The Triumph dealer is about an hour and then some away by car but I can't exactly drive there and ride a bike down. They could deliver but wanted 20,000 Yen (or $150ish in usd) but pff that! In the end it took me a bit more than two hours, three trains and one bus to...
