    Seats

    I have a 2006 Rocket 3 Classic with a one-piece seat for rider and passenger. Is it possible to put a 2-piece on it, or are they completely different mounting systems? Are there any models/brands that can be adapted with minimal tinkering?

    Exhaust manifold gaskets

    I have done a search and did not find a specific post on this, so please forgive me if it has already been addressed. I am looking for a good source (I am in the U.S.) for exhaust manifold gaskets. TIA

    Exhaust wrap?

    I actually contacted them. They keep trying to sell me on the 1300 because I don't "have a turbo or nitrous". Still waiting on an estimate. Not particularly impressed with customer service so far.

    Yeah, I got that explanation in another thread I posted - mystery parts. Come to find out it has had quite a bit of work done. Just got lucky I guess.

    Winner winner chicken dinner. The man was even nice enough to tell me a little about it and I’m sure he has a full schedule. High compression piston and ported head, used to belong to his mechanic’s dad. Said he’d look to see if he still had the dyno charts. Oh how I wish!!

    Exhaust wrap?

    I think I’m going with short-term fix of cheap amazon clip-on guards while I mull my options.

    Exhaust wrap?

    LOL yeah I actually thought about that. I do maintenance on vans for my day job so I’m decent about prepping.

    Exhaust wrap?

    Wow. Just...wow. I have the regular carpenter, I can’t imagine how tough wrapping that one would be. Looks great!

    Exhaust wrap?

    Ok, besides not getting more equipment to wear I’m also not getting a new exhaust. :). Any other advice?

    Exhaust wrap?

    Just looking for some input. Any experiences with or opinions of exhaust wrap? I have an ‘06 classic with carpenter racing exhaust and the burn is just too much. I’ve seen the posts about wearing protective pads but I’m tired of the scorch marks on my jeans and I don’t want another piece of...

    Questions from noob

    As my son and I were walking around inspecting the bike he pointed out the shocks. One more thing to add to the list of questions for the guy who worked on it! Side note: my boy is the 'baby' of the family...he turns 18 today and will find a 2003 Honda Shadow Ace sitting at home sometime today. :)

    Mystery parts

    My apologies, I used ram air meaning short ram intake, was not aware that there was a literal "Ramair" system. The stock listing for the tire is 150/80, any particular reason for the size recommendation?
