    Rumors of a new Rocket 3 refresh model

    I cannot say that the extra few horses are of interest, but I do like the new black/blue paint scheme and those new lighter wheels. Still not enough of a change to make me want to trade in my 2020 model.

    Mounting an Exedra Max rear tire on the new 3R = Better Handling

    That review made me chuckle. The tyre is made for "higher performance bikes" like the Indian scout, all of 100bhp and 72ft/lb of torque. How will it survive the Rocket?

    Where does the bluetooth module live?

    I hope it works OK for you, as it has great potential.

    Where does the bluetooth module live?

    I would make sure you have researched the Bluetooth functionality before you go ahead. I don't think I would have bothered if I knew what I was getting. The nav directions on the screen are very small and not much better than a simple Beeline, and you cannot set a route without being paired to...

    2 new Harleys on the block

    I have to give some credit to HD, as the Breakout was the bike that caught my eye and coaxed me away from sports bikes, what was this cruiser type of bike, why had I not seen this before?. I was very tempted, but close up the bike just didn't cut it, attention to detail was not the best...

    Rear brake gone.

    It seems I have been lucky. I had my brake system bled in spring 2021 and had no issues since. I am due to put mid controls on my GT in the coming months, so I hope this issue does not show it ugly head again.

    I think I would cry like a little girl if I had to buy my first Harley 😁

    R handlebars on GT

    Thanks for the ideas. It seems that the brake and clutch hoses can only be bought as part of the handlebar fitting kit, so I will have to buy all new parts, at least this way I cannot be held responsible if anything is missing or wrong.

    R handlebars on GT

    The dealer said that mid controls on the GT is a very popular mod. Unfortunately just moving your feet back six inches doesn't alter the sitting/back/posture position. I need to be leant forward to straighten my back, the GT sitting position causes me to slouch. I have had a short time on the...

    R handlebars on GT

    Hi all, After two years on the GT I have come to the conclusion that the seating position is just not for me, as it hurts my back after a couple of hours, so I want to change my GT to R ergonomics (R handlebars, R foot controls and R seat). Can anyone advise me on the handlebar fitting. The...

    Rocket in new Netflix movie

    Sounds like they dubbed over with a Harley engine.

    Panniers holders (mounting kit)

    For some reason the locks are out of alignment by 90 degrees. It annoys the hell out of me, but they all seem to be the same.

    Suddenly a new contender

    I would assume the exhaust work the same way as the Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde system, flick the switch for quite mode (town use or early morning) then flick the switch again for full fat undiluted loudness.

    Rear brake fail

    I must be one of the lucky ones. I had mine bleed early last year and the peddle is still firm. Fingers crossed.
