  1. Valve shims?

    I understand that, but I am just looking for an alternative source as my closest dealer doesn't have any. I was wondering if another brand used the same diameter and thickness range.

  2. Valve shims?

    I am about to check mine. Is there any other make or model that uses the identical sizes? I'm about 350 miles to a dealer.

  3. Ignition switch

    I took mine apart. The switch contacts were pitted. Reassembled with dielectric grease and all is well so far.

  4. Ignition switch

    How many have had problems with theirs either not starting or quitting? Should be a safety recall I think. What if the bike quits on you when entering traffic or passing? Mine is doing it now and others I've heard.

  5. Rivco heel toe shifter problem

    The issue was not with the stock shifter but only with the Rivco heel/toe shifter. I thought I had read somewhere about an external spring being added to the heel part of the Rivco unit?

  6. Rivco heel toe shifter problem

    I'm having a problem with mine especially on downshifting. It's like the shifter doesn't return to shift center after downshifting so it's stuck between detents. Is there an assist spring or mod for this?

  7. Russel Day Long & handlebar options

    I just tried out my new Russel seat and it does feel great. I do find however that the bar positioning (stock) doesn't feel as good anymore. I was thinking about the Rivco risers. Does anyone with the Russel seat have any suggestions? Also do the stock cables all work with those risers?

  8. Broken Connection in Ignition Switch

    Mine did the same. I have the relocation kit on mine. It definitely got worse as the temperature increased. Hot air from the motor blows directly on the ign switch. That made the location of the switch suspect to me. I will resolder and somehow shield the ign switch.

  9. Paint code

    thanks guys

  10. Paint code

    I have an 05 Rocket. Anyone know which black it is...(jet, phantom..?) I see there is a paint code chart on Triumph's site. Just not sure which black it would be. thanks

  11. HOW TO INSTALL ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL ON YOUR ROCKET!

    Along with the cruise control I've also ordered a Saab cruise control pump from ebay. How would you plumb the vacuum lines? ebay# 220099179732 thanks

  12. HOW TO INSTALL ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL ON YOUR ROCKET!

    If anyone has additional pics to post of the cable bracket and how they did it that would be great. Or email them to me at snakepit@sympatico.ca

  13. Underseat ducting.

    No ill effects...just take it off.

  14. Passenger Floorboards

    There are locating pins. They are nice boards

  15. Under seat air ducts

    It will do it stock as well. My Harley has always done it. It' s just a hiccup (character).
