    It's gone....

    Why not then a Speed Triple 1200 RS?

    It's gone....

    Why did you not just keep the Rocket?

    Mirrors...

    I'd like to offer my experience: https://www.r3owners.net/threads/chinese-counterfeit-triumph-mirrors-i-am-content.54253/ So, I got the round mirrors and put on slightly convex round mirrors glue-ons on top of the original mirrors. I found out about this additional product when I was shopping...

    Upset with Corbin, paid, yet received nothing in 12 weeks

    No shipping this week. They are saying the paint is drying as we speak. Next week it will be 20 weeks. I called a new person, somebody high standing in sales/customer service, she said the fiberglass machine was broken or molds were not coming out the right way.. That is why such a delay...

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    Yes, it is a benefit. Frankly, not for me personally. My job sadly does not result in long vacations. A few days here and there is all I can score. Nothing long enough to mount "escape from Florida" ride, sadly. I have not even been in all the Florida, as yet. Mostly I ride after work and on...

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    Well, we have a huge coastline with beautiful vistas of the ocean. Florida has its moments. PS: We probably have the smoothest roads of any state, even local roads. Wide lanes too. It is a pleasure to ride.

    Lithium battery

    Don't necessarily get Lithium motorcycle batteries without careful consideration. They can quit working with less warning than some traditional batteries. It's possible for some to go from appearing 100% to DEAD – fully. And if you think you can logically deduce when it will go dead — nah. It...

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    I am in S Florida, we only have 90 degree turns. We call them intersections.

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    Was always curious about the Indian Challengers. How is it in comparison to the Rocket? Finish and performance?

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    So, your rocket 3 has no use? You described every other bike but what you use rocker for.

    Now owing Rocket 3, how do you tolerate other bikes? What would your next bike be?

    Being one of the lucky few with that absurd low-end torque, how do you tolerate bikes? Is there any bike out there that could actually eclipse the Rocket in your eyes, what will be your next bike?

    So little but so helpful, a splash guard for your front fender. My radiator before was always dirty.

    eBay, it is a Powerbronze product.

    Upset with Corbin, paid, yet received nothing in 12 weeks

    Well, I sent 10 days ago an email to the main person at Corbin (email given to me by an employee and I checked for its correctness on the internet), I guess, the owner. Well, still have not received a reply. Nor any evident activity that someone is trying to rectify the situation. I am just...

    What do you think about the riding modes? Do you find them useful?

    So, when I bought the bike, I gave myself a promise not to go into Sports mode at least 5 months, or till I feel comfy in Road mode. Even though I fully intended to learn to drive it in Rain mode, I right away had trouble with giving it enough throttle at launches. After switching to Road mode...

    Just got back from my first test ride ..... OMG!

    For me the prior looks of the Rocket where it was silver, did not appeal to me. I looked cheap and the bike seemed fatter. I also think the silver highlights accentuated the wrong lines on the bike, made it seem more cube like, like a Minecraft version. Thus, when I was buying mine, I was so...

    Just got back from my first test ride ..... OMG!

    Well, try a GT. It will be more HD stance. I also raised the GT's handlebars 2 inches. Difference of R with the stock GT, GT has forward positioned controls, and a closer to the rider handlebars (they have more curve towards the rider). Looks wise, see what I have done with mine (hint: carbon...

    Dropped Tire Pressure to Improve Ride

    This is how I track my pressure with FOBO bluetooth sensors. They have 2 versions, with and without a temperature sensor. So, if you shop, make sure you compare the right models price wise. I have gotten mine from Amazon. Pics: imgur.com/a/8eFw3MT My use is to take a phone out and read all my...

    Dropped Tire Pressure to Improve Ride

    My tires hold the pressure well, probably losing only a half of PSI a month. Generally, you get PSI sudden changes with weather temps. But where I am, it stays more or less stable, temp wise, well, also giving a whole year riding weather.

    How much do you pay for insurance for 2500cc?

    So, the way it works, if you are at fault, the state of FL will send you in a few weeks a demand to show financial responsibility ('cause you'd lack an insurance company that would generally receive this letter, so it would be mailed to you). You should either deposit this money with the state...
