  1. NoStart

    Hi, All; I went out to crank up the 'Silver Bullet' this morning to go to church (honest!), and while everything set up as normal (all indicators, all the right sounds, including the fuel pump), when I punched the 'start' button, absolutely NOTHING happened. I tried several times (key off/key...
  2. A 'State Law' Question

    Hi, Guys; I own a Rocket 3 'std' that I do some touring with. I am planning a ride to California 'and environs' in May, and have what I think might be a problem. My bike is fitted with the 'TORS' Exhaust system, which I think is pretty loud. Around Albuquerque, the cops don't even bother to...
  3. Woohoo!

    She's back-and just in time for Christmas!!! Finally, after 3 months of frustration and chasing parts back and forth across The Pond, my Beast is back in my driveway! After a short ride back from the dealer (it was too cold to go far, and I wasn't dressed for it), I can only say that the dealer...
  4. Oil Tank??

    Hi, guys; I called my dealer yesterday to see if the Beast was ready to be picked up, and got told that the factory had sent them the wrong oil tank and they had to send it back and re-order! I weas not aware that different Rockets used difdferent oil tanks ! (mine is an '05 std.) Has anyone...
  5. On The Mend...

    Hi, Guys!! I just wanted to 'check in' and say that the insurance has sent the money to my dealer to repair my Beast after my mishap of about a month ago, and they have the parts on order. Can't wait to get 'Back in the Saddle Again'! Since we have a year round riding season here in New...
  6. Ouch!!!

    I'm wondering if the R3 isn't too much for me! I purchased my (new to me) '05 R3 standard in mid August, rode it to a rally with my club (the Enchanted Voyagers-a Kawasaki group, had a blast putting about 800 miles on the beast, came home, decided to ride her to work the next Tuesday, and ran...
  7. Leather Saddlebags...

    Hi!! I just brought my '05 R3 Standard home, and there's a problem with her that I need to address right away. I prefer long distance touring, and I need a good pair of waterproof (underlined and with exclamation pointe!!) saddlebags. The leather ones that are on it are so shriveled up they...
  8. BroughtHer Home Today...

    Hi, Guys; Well, I finally picked up my Rocket today. I got to the store (P.J.'s Triumph in Albuquerque, NM), and found that all was not quite 'right' on the bike-an accessory I had ordered had not been installed. I asked the salesman about it, he talked to the service manager, and they said...
  9. Speedo Error

    Hi, All! I pick Up my '05 R3 next week!!! I have a question... Part of my 175-mile 'test ride' was on the superslab, and everyone seemed to be in a hurry. Cruising at the speed limit nearly got me rear ended a couple of times, while some other traffic (mostly big rigs) was going slower than I...
  10. New Owner (soon!!)

    Hi, Everyone! I've wanted a Rocket 3 ever since I saw my first one when the Triumph store opened up here in Albuquerque about a year ago, and within 2 weeks my 'dream' will come true! My current ride is an '03 Kawasaki Voyager XII that's getting a little long in the tooth, so I decided...
