    Handlebar Adjustment Question

    I have a simular problem. I would like to raise my handlebars up a little. My bike fell over and the handlebars dented my tank. Now when I go to turn they hit the tank on both sides. How do you loosen up the handlebars to raise them. Thanks

    Cleaning the Rocket's Rims

    If anyone is looking for a good aluminum cleaner for your rims try Mothers Billet Metal Polish, works great but a lot of hard work. I’ve been at it all afternoon. You don’t want those rims to get dirty because once it’s in the aluminum it a real bit_ch to get out, if at all.

    12 Volt Power Socket Install

    My First Mod Ok, I followed pigr9’s method and it worked like a charm. The only thing I would say to make it a little easier and more water poof is to shrink wrap your connections. The connectors I used were 16-14awg.187 male connectors and the shrink wrap was ¼” shrink wrap. Thanks Sky...
