    2012 Roadster Handling

    The roads where I lived are revoltingly straight and flat, it's a 2 hour ride to find a hill or corner 😪

    2012 Roadster Handling

    I'm not sure what my opinion is worth here, but what you're describing sounds like my bike too, which I assumed was normal. My 2012 Roadster is the only rocket I've ever owned or ridden, and while I've got decades of riding on trail-bikes my road bike experiences is fairly limited. The bike...

    火箭三R中气缸压缩为零。有人知道原因吗？

    Please don't leave use hanging, let us know what you found. If the problem was fixed by adjusting the shims there is something you need to watch out for. Value gaps generally only get smaller for two reasons (there are other reasons but they are outliers generally speaking), and they are both...

    Considering a 2020 Rocket 3 vs 2015

    The obvious stuff is obvious (price, newer Vs Older, etc.....) so I'll avoid those things. IMO the following points are the big ones which will differentiate the bikes New model Contemporary styling Faster, lighter, more riding tech. Will embarrass 99.9% of other bikes off the mark Old model...

    Need a drive shaft for 2022 GT

    It's not difficult, but if you're not sure a driveline shop will source the right joint and replace them for you.

    火箭三R中气缸压缩为零。有人知道原因吗？

    I know basically zero about this model of rocket, and even less specifically about the decompression system so I can't be much help on the specifics here. Diagnostic tests help identify exactly what the issue is, or at least begin eliminating other possibilities. Jumping straight to a suspected...

    火箭三R中气缸压缩为零。有人知道原因吗？

    I'm going to try and respond to a couple of posts here with this one so bear with me. TURBO200R4 is right, compression tests are not evidence. They only tell you that there is a problem (if done correctly), a compression test alone doesn't tell you what the problem is. The conditions of a...

    火箭三R中气缸压缩为零。有人知道原因吗？

    Probably easiest to buy a cheap borescope and have a look. You can diagnosis compression ring problems by adding a few drops of oil to the cylinder during the compression test, if the pressure increases then you're losing air past the rings because the oil compensates for the wear. But an...

    火箭三R中气缸压缩为零。有人知道原因吗？

    kilograms per square centimeter is the Japanese stand for measuring pressure. The conversion rate is 1 Kg/cm2 to 98.0665 Kpa. So basically 1 kg = 100 Kpa for a rough figure

    The Harley experiment is over

    I'm sorry you had to go through that 😁

    Need a drive shaft for 2022 GT

    you should be able to get replacement u-joints (or spiders as they are called in some parts of the world). It is extraordinarily unlikely that Triumph have had a specialized sized u-joint made, it is almost certainly the case that they have used an existing u-joint size. A driveline shop will be...

    Need a drive shaft for 2022 GT

    If the shaft itself is good you could try taking it to a specialist drive-line shop. The bearings will almost certainly just be an off the shelf product that they can source.

    Engine cutting out under load

    Hi Frosty, I'm going to be following this one closely so any details you can provide of what find will be greatly appreciated. I have almost the identical issue except my power fluctuates when accelerating hard in 2nd and 3rd. Over the course of a few seconds it varies from ripping my arms out...

    Trunk with support wheel

    I love it. All it needs is a couple of massive triumph decals on it to make it perfect

    Floppy gear selector

    This. A broken detent spring will make the bike jump out of gear when you take the load off the gears (basically when your not accelerating). If you can't select any gear it is far more like the selector bolt

    Noco a good alternative to yuasa?

    Worrying about the battery catching fire while riding a rocket is like worrying about getting struck by lighting while swimming in a tank full of starved sharks.

    Oil Vanishing

    This is where I would start. You would very likely see if you were burning or losing that much oil, it's most likely hiding in a different compartment it's not meant to be in.

    Raboconda Tire Changer for 240 rear wheel?

    This is what they crazy old dude who does my tyres said. He got excited when I said it was a rocket, which soon turned to disgust when I told him it was a 2012 and not the new model😂

    Raboconda Tire Changer for 240 rear wheel?

    I was thinking the same thing. Maybe I'm lucky in that i have a local guy who only charges me $50 and gives me a good price on the tyres too. He was seriously reluctant to do the job when he found out it was a rocket too, he said they are probably the worst tyre to fit and he has been doing it...

    Will a slip-on Exhaust void the warranty on a '25 Storm?

    Here's the really important thing to remember about warranty claims, the manufacturer doesn't have to honour them until forced to do so by the legal system. So basically you will be left with a broken bike or a repair bill if they refuse warranty, until you force them to pay through a legal...
