    2005 Rocket III - intermittent fault

    Cheers Cooter! I've had her for about 18 months now, and its a pleasure to ride! I'd hoped the TPS replacement would have fixed this issue but sadly not. I'll check & lube the linkages as mentioned, and check the vacuum lines too. I've fitted the Ram Air which makes access to the gubbins under...

    2005 RIII - Rear shock Spring Dimensions

    Morning all. I'm looking at dropping the height of my rocket about 1-1.5". I bought a Maverick low profile seat, which offers perfect seat height, but hurts like hell after being in the saddle for an hour or so, so no good for me. The alternative is putting the standard seat back on (which for...

    Error Code P0122 - TPS

    Okay, seems to have been a simple fix luckily. Short version is I plugged the TPS Sensor in and tested it without it being inserted into the throttle body. I put a screwdriver into the Sensor and twisted it, then let it spring back, and hey presto the Sensor was reading in the 0.6 range, so...

    Error Code P0122 - TPS

    Hi all. I'd previously posted that I was having trouble with warm starts. I reset my TPS with TuneECU and it seemed okay. Problem came back, so bought a new TPS. Unplugged old one, fitted new one, and now just getting the P0122 error code. Says short circuit to negative? Any suggestions because...

    Detent Spring

    Bit of a late reply, but havent had the bike out for a bit. UPDATE: I decided to replace my Clutch cable, as it looked a bit chewed up at the end anyway. So swapped for a new one, and set it up with minimum clearance, and ... touch wood... has been a lot better! Thanks for the help and advice guys!

    Stalling/ starting issue only when warm

    Thanks for all the advice lads! UPDATE: I checked my TPS using TuneECU and the settings were out.... was at 0.71v starting position, so managed to set it to 0.61V, and the second position was 0.73v. Managed to nip out for a bit of a run on Sunday, and...touch wood.... it seems to be a lot...

    Stalling/ starting issue only when warm

    Okay, an update then. Not had a chance to do much yet, tbh. I've now payed for TuneECU for Android, and I've bought a cable from Lonelec so i'm good to go on that front, I just need to do more reading on how to use it properly. In the meantime, I thought i'd try the 12 min tune in case that...

    Stalling/ starting issue only when warm

    Hi Turbo, thanks..... I'll clean the neutral switch this weekend. I've tried starting without pulling clutch lever in, and it doesn't even crank.

    Stalling/ starting issue only when warm

    Afternoon all. i've had my 2005 Rocket III for a little over a year, and love it. I usually rider her 3-4 times a week and she hasn't missed a beat, until this last couple of times. It starts up fine first time, rides smoothly through the gears and ticks over at idle @ 900rpm, after about 20...
