    Breakaway throttle and Air horns.

    Hey Doc, I will need to look into that breakaway throttle control! I need to get something for my Rocket. I also have been thinking about where I can place some air horns on my bike. With all the commuting, I need a horn that is fitting of a Rocket, not the little Vespa horn that Triumph gives us!!

    Sorry Fat Cat. I have the Chatterbox system and my wife uses a hand held walkie talkie when in the car to keep in touch with me. Or she uses the cell phone.

    Bikers Friend?

    I have just bought my second Bikers Friend XL size for my new Rocket 3 Classic. My first one died in my accident in 08'. But I never had a problem with it. The construction is top notch. And you can stuff it with a piss load of stuff! Hell, I brought home a 28 piece chicken dinner along with all...

    Bluetooth Helmet Speakers: which are good & reasonable $

    I will offer my 2 cents. I have a Chatterbox X1 Bluetooth. I have had a Chatterbox unit even before the bluetooth was offered and although it has had its issues, I would never go on a ride without it. It sync's up to my cell phone beautifully and allows me to hear music played from my cell...

    600 mile service

    OH, supposedly they will do a complete check of the bike looking for loose nuts and bolts, change the oil and help to lighten the load on your machine by removing some weight from your wallet :D ! Dog But check and see if your doing it yourself will not violate your warranty!

    My search continues

    I've used the Vista Throttle Lock and the Throttlemeister both. They both serve the purpose of a throttle lock by allowing you to remove your hand from the throttle and giving it a rest. I would recommend the Throttlemeister over the Vista as the best looking way to go. It will take a little...

    Keeping Black Engine Like New!

    Hi Red, your Midnight Special, what model was it? I have the 81' XS850GS Midnight Special. They are good looking bikes, only 3000 of each model made. Dog

    Having Trouble w/ Corbin Beetle Bags

    Redrocket, I think you'll find dealing with Corbin directly a lot better than having the dealer do it for you. I found dealing with Corbin that the service staff very attentive and they honestly wanted to make it right! If you don't get this kind of service, you really have to let us know ...

    I am drooling again...

    While its a good looking application I just have to wonder if asbestos lined chaps are a requirement when riding the beast :?: Dog

    Or if it works like the sensor on a bicycle speedo, using a gps you can figure out and adjust the calibration your self, maybe? Dog

    CORBIN Fairing serious questions

    I feel that the Corbin is worth the money. As for aerodynamics I have ridden the Rocket in winds as high as 70mph and no problems. I had to add the taller HD windshield to keep rocks off my chest and hands and it worked beautifully. Along with the way it looks it is well built! I got caught...

    Electrical ghost

    Without really knowing for sure, it sounds like your starter might be going. Thats what happens to cars just before the starter goes on vacation. Dog
