    Tank slapper

    I don't normally do this but I took both hands off the bars to adjust my helmet whilst doing 70kph & the handlebars started wobbling from side to side gradually getting more violent. I tried it at a few different speeds & it only seems to do it below 75kph. It's fine at 100kph. The bike is a...

    2015 Roadster map with TORs.

    I'm not sure if I'm looking in the right spot or not but I can only find 2 different custom tunes for my bike on the Tune ECU site. I have a 2015 Roadster which is after VIN #574813 & the only mods I've done is TORs. When the dealer fitted the TORs & loaded the new map, the bike wouldn't idle...

    Rack & backrest.

    Does anyone know if a rack & backrest off a 2009 standard will fit a 2015 Roadster? I bought a rack, backrest & brackets used on-line but didn't realise that the brackets were different. If i can get some brackets will the backrest & rack fit?

    Oil leak.

    I've only got 500kms on the new X and just noticed an oil leak. I rang the nearest dealer (not were I bought it) to arrange to take it there in the morning so they can have a look but I thought I'd ask on here first to see if anyone else has had similar issues. It looks like it's coming from the...

    Tinting indicators/ blinkers/ turn signals...whatever you want to call them.

    I read on another website somewhere that instead of buying smoked indicators, you could use black RIT clothing dye. Boil a pot of water, add the dye & indicators and simmer for between 10 & 20 minutes depending on how dark you wanted them. Then rinse them in warm water & let them dry.I done them...

    G'day from down under (Australia). I will be picking up a Rocket 3 X tomorrow so I thought I'd join this forum & pick your brains.
