    Oil Filler Cap??

    an answer for some questions: oil cap

    Fuel vapors...

    After this weekend and a good trip, it seems to be working...but I still have a little doubt. I'm leaving the country for about two weeks and I'll come back to the subject by then.

    Fuel vapors...

    Yes, of course I will report back to the forum..."Rocket 3 Owners" is also there for this kind of thing. I'm going to ride this weekend: the return will be quick!

    Fuel vapors...

    For information: I disassembled and reassembled the black cap (the one that locks) twice to check if the valve (brown rubber) worked well, it was ok allowing the tank to suck in outside air. In my problem I had pressure that could not escape anywhere other than through the cap so I was getting...

    Fuel vapors...

    Well, that's it! I've just partially disassembled the tank to check the breather hose! Apparently Triumph has reinvented the wheel again... there's a mess under the tank that even a dog wouldn't find its puppies. Hose, two valves, a restrictor, (numbers 35, 36, 37, 38, 39) in short, I put...

    Fuel vapors...

    I always apply "rule number one" in this case: "never really believe what your dealer tells you...especially when he can't find the problem with your bike..."

    Fuel vapors...

    It's good, I solved the problem thanks to a member of a French forum... When I removed the canister system, I pinched the tank's air vent when reassembling it, which explains the high pressure in the tank in the sun. The problem will be solved tomorrow! That being said, notice that you have...

    Fuel vapors...

    Every time I open the aluminum Monza cap, it's under pressure and the fuel comes out as vapor... It's very hot here and my bike is in direct sunlight, and when I stop, I get this phenomenon every time. So Triumph designed a black plastic vented cap and a sealed aluminum cap, and that...

    oil cap

    This is what I wanted to do at first, but noticing the poor quality of the aluminum used and my habit of not paying too much attention to "light" assemblies, I therefore opted for a "Rambo approved" solution... 🤣

    Question for those who installed Carbon Parts

    There Gimlet, I agree with you...the gray parts made of crappy plastic or poor quality aluminum are really a pain on this bike...I started to repaint them and I think I'll continue!

    Question for those who installed Carbon Parts

    As for me, I chose another route more less expensive: very high-quality paint with a carbon look and no problem! I even had the exhaust heat shields painted. Given the weight of the bike, I don't see the point of saving 200 or 300 grams... a diet on the part of the rider would be more...

    For those who have remapped their ECU ..

    1/2 months 2/No 3/I got back the horses that Triumph had hidden on my version, and even a little more.... (my bike lifts up to 3rd gear...) 4/largely because, in addition, I had a mapping still optimized vs Penner's

    Tires etc.

    Hi Sunny, I haven't yet tested Cruisetec on my Rocket, which still has the original Cobras. I have the original Cruisetecs on my Indian Challenger, and while the front is pretty decent, the rear is catastrophic on this bike: the tire spins in first and second gear in the dry and all the way...

    Tires etc.

    Yes, I was wrong, the Exedra 2 is indeed 240/55/16"... As I wrote earlier I wanted to avoid the Cruisetec which I have on another bike and which I don't find great but, unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't have much choice. Maybe on another bike they will be more suitable, I will say a prayer to...

    Tires etc.

    Hi everyone, I think I have the same problem as many others... 1/ I like the Cobra Chrome, but it's become impossible to find. 2/ I really want to fit the Exedra in 240/55/17, but: 3/ European standards require a maximum 3% difference when changing tire size, and the 240/55 is +24mm in...
