  1. PLX Wiki Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU

    PLX Kiwi Wi-Fi and Rocket ECU Just got a PLX OBD-II adapter and the iPhone app DashCommand. Works great on my two Ford vehicles and wanted to do some data logging on the rocket. Even though the box says it it compatible with KWP-2000 protocol, I can't even get the adapter to power up when I...

  2. Tune ECU Success

    Thanks to this very informative forum, the folks that suffered from the school of hard knocks, and the excellent work of Alain Fontaine, I was able to successfully update the tune on my '06 classic on the very first try!! Thanks for writing this software. Everybody who procrastinated on buying...

  3. Finally Back Home

    Well, my ride is finally back in its stable. :) Picked it up this morning after the latest transmission repair attempt. Technician and the owner of the dealership test drove it with no problems. I babied it home to ensure my ride would last more than just 5 miles this time. After getting it...

  4. My Ride is Back!! - - FINALLY

    Well, after more than 5 months in the shop for two transmission failures, I finally have my black and red 2006 Classic back in its proper home. When I tried to pick it up last Saturday, coolant started leaking from the radiator cowling. Turned out to be a loose hose clamp. Before I rode off...

  5. Touring vs Classic - - Initial Impressions

    Dealer loaned me an '08 Touring while my '06 Classic remains in the shop for more repairs (long story). Initial impressions: 1. Touring almost has as much pull in 1, 2, 3 as my Classic. At highway speeds in 5th gear, the Classic has more grunt. 2. Throatier exhaust note on the Touring. I...

  6. The saga continues . . .

    Dealer called yesterday to let me know my transmission was fixed and my bike was ready. (See the many threads about catastrophic transmission failure and others). Triumph shipped the wrong second gear in the upgrade kit. Wrong gear had 8 dogs. Proper gear had 4. They needed to mount my new...

  7. Update on transmission repairs

    This is a follow-up to my transmission troubles that started in June. (See the threads on catastrophic transmission failure and transmission still not fixed after 3 months). Between June 27 and September 18, the motor was torn down, the casing replaced, and the upgrade kit applied. A few...

  8. 3 months later - - Transmission STILL not fixed.

  9. Still Love My Rocket

    While my '06 Classic is in the shop for an unknown period of time for probably a complete engine replacement (see thread on catastrophic transmission failure), I broke down and rented a 2006 HD Heritage Softail for 2 days. Gotta have my 2-wheel fix, no matter what I ride. For anyone...

  10. Catastrophic Transmission Failure

    First things first - - I thank God that the drivetrain did not sieze up and I didn't slip on the oil. 2006 Classic with 12100 miles and 5 days before the warranty expires. Lately, it has been popping out of 2nd gear under hard acceleration. It almost always jumps out of 2nd after a 3-2...

  11. Hello from SE Houston, TX

    Hi all - - Got my '06 Rocket Classic (Red and Black) from British-USA in June 2006. Now have 4400 very happy miles on my ride. Been on the other forum for quite a while and decided to join here too (mainly because of the LoneStar group). Shifting into 1st is a rite of passage for all Rocket...
