    I know Triumph do a set of heated grips...but I decided to try some heated gloves and a bodywarmer.. These ones discussed here... http://bigbikemad.com/keis-heated-motorcycle-clothing.html Hedgehog
  3. Visor and Helmet Cleaner

    Just started using this, although of course it's been out for ages. Very fast and effective (whatever it is). :cheers: Big Bike Mad: Motorcycle Reviews, Guides and Gear What do you guys use? Dave PS works well on the Triumph OEM screen.

  5. Rev'it Leather Jacket

    Bought a jacket for She Who Mus Be Obeyed recently....and she kindly wrote me a review of it! It's a thing called the Roamer by Rev'it. Really lovely quality. And the jacket's not bad either. http://bigbikemad.com/revit-roamer-l...et-review.html The jacket is available in a Men's version too...
  6. Blast Off with the Rocket III

    Well we've completed our test and review of the Rocket..... and feeling pretty mixed about it. Some good points and some not so good. Got a feeling that, while its a good bike, Triumph could have done better... Love looking at it in the garage though. Happy to receive abuse / comments...
  7. Exhaust Mod

    This is a cheapie mod - just de-cat and then drill three holes in each baffle back plate. A dealer re-map finishes the job. It is reversible. Effect is to add a little db must mostly just some fruitiness and texture to the sound. Perhaps little more power and little worse fuel consumption...
  8. Bags Connection Tank Bag

    Hi Guys, Hope you're all well and right side up. Sorry for long absence - been touring Ireland again. Superb but not easy on a Rocket III! What a beast! Been thinking about getting one of those click on and off tank bags since I last went on tour and got fed up with the straps on my old Oxford...
  9. Ta-Ta Tax Disc for Brit Riders...

    First October will see abolition of the road tax disc - part of motoring life for over 90 years in the UK. Here's a short article celebrating (or not) its demise... :p http://bigbikemad.com/ta-ta-tax-disc.html What do you lot think - is Ditching the Disc a Good Thing or a Bad Thing? :cautious:

  11. Hello from Bigbikemad

    A bit of a belated introduction - for which apologies. I write for Bigbikemad.com, the non-profit, free on-line bike magazine which I started last year with a few other riders (two blokes, two girls) as a means of recovering from a brain tumour. We run a series of project bikes throughout the...
  12. Airsplitter Horn

    As everyone knows the standard Rocket horn is not really up to the job of announcing the arrival of such a magnificent beast.... So we thought an upgrade was in order. Wollo have a good reputation, so we ordered the Airsplitter model and here's how we got on. The wiring is just connecting as...
  13. Spark Plug Change

    Its odd that this topic - simple though it is - is not mentioned in the Service Manual. We decided to fit some NGK Iridium plugs to our Project bike - a 2008 Classic - and thought we'd do a basic video of it. Easy job in the end - and the iridium's seem to make tickover a little smoother too...
  14. Rocket III Upgrade to 444 Progressive Shocks

    Hi Guys, Having got the Flipmeister stand I can now do a few jobs that are part of the Rocket III project. First up is the rear suspension.... we decided on 13 inch Progressive 444's..... Again - I'm no expert - just a rider sharing experiences. Rocket III articles are posted on Bigbikemad the...
