    Raboconda Tire Changer for 240 rear wheel?

    I used the Raboconda today and here is what it looks like. The residue between the holes in the rim are from where we put tape to make sure the safety wire didn't rub on the rim.

    I hate key fobs

    I find that I can start the bike with a dead or almost dead FOB by having it in my right front pocket. I stand next to the bike, move my right pocket to the antenna or close anyway and then I can still reach the clutch and ignition switch at the same time. I have a FOB on my Indian...

    It is just a tick box. Simple to do.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    That is a little over 25 freedom units. (25lbs) for those not on the metric system. Which if you look at the videos I have posted, we did verify a 25lb loss.

    Why are people selling their Rockets?

    But over there you have different riding needs. You can go from the very bottom to the very top of your country in about 800 miles by road. (if Google is correct.) Over here that is just the start to a nice trip. We also have a lot of straight roads so that weight is nice when you get those...

    Why are people selling their Rockets?

    I still stand by the idea that I want them to make a bike just like the Indian Roadmaster but put the Rocket 3 engine in it. You would then have a bike which would really challenge the Goldwing.

    US penner tune for 2022 r3 GT

    I have uploaded several tunes into my Rocket and I have never run into that. Maybe the 2021 model is different. I have just uploaded and had it work right out of the box.

    Raboconda Tire Changer for 240 rear wheel?

    Yes, I have used it and it does work. You need their big hub adapter for the rear wheel. Totally worth it. I figured I have already paid for it by the savings I have had.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    I know I had mentioned it because the top speed they got was not what I calculated even if the RPM was lower than what was indicated.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    A good analogy to being on the salt is take a somewhat rough asphalt road and pour some sand and gravel over it and then go really really fast.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    We started with the Penner tune with the new pipe and had to lean it out some, it was running too rich with the new pipe.

    2.5L Life Expectancy

    Air cooled Indians can get over 500K miles on them. A low stress 3 cylinder liquid cooled motor will last several hundred thousand miles easy. The Rocket 3 will last until you tire of the bike, stop riding it and let it rot in the corner of the garage or it gets in an accident.

    Paul Bryant full system for 2.5 R3

    As promised here is a video with the exhaust. Here is a better picture of the O2 sensor. Can't tell from the picture but there is about a 1 - 2 mm clearance around it. And another shot of the new versus old manifolds. Take a close look because the black is not all open port, just the...
