    Clutch switch alternatives

    Turns out it was the coil over conversion causing issues, we used known good TPSs off another bike for testing and had the same issue as already covered in this thread. Issue is now gone with the original TPSs still in place. So..... maybe not as always hey?

    Nope, it runs a traditional firing crank with evenly spaced cycles

    Next Gen Rocket 3 spied

    You're right, but there is even more to it that makes a T plane redundant for a rocket. Power isn't delivered smoothly through the 360 rotation of an engine, the power comes in peaks and troughs inline with power and compression cycles, using a T plane creates a longer period without power...

    High milage RIII misfire & idle issues

    Hi, sounds like we are having a similar problem which a lot of people seem to have had. Unfortunately it seems like there are a lot different possible causes as multiple people have fixed this issues but in different ways. My advice is have look through the forum for idle, low power, and misfire...

    Next Gen Rocket 3 spied

    I always imagine the Rocket to be the motorcycle equivalent of a Bentley Continental. Enormous, comfortable, and with speed and handling on par or better than other extremely capable sports cars much smaller than itself. I get that people might want a bit more practicality from their Bentley...

    Next Gen Rocket 3 spied

    The fact that i can't part with my Roadster is the only reason I don't own a new Rocket, so I've decided I'm going to own both. But the Roadster just cost me the best part of 5 grand to fix so the goal just got a little further away 🤣

    Clutch switch alternatives

    You have no idea how good 🤣, I've absolutely struck gold I was a diesel fitter so always fixed everything myself, I'm now in a different space where I have money but very little time (I'm now much more interested in spending my time riding bikes rather than fixing them). I reacquired my old...

    Clutch switch alternatives

    Cheers, I appreciate any help on this one, it's a real head scratcher. The fuel pump, filter, and regulator have all been changed as the fuel pressure was slightly low. It picked power up a bit but didn't fix the issue. We swapped the whole throttle body assembly (including both TPS and stepper...

    Clutch switch alternatives

    If the problem was just the idle it wouldn't bother me, the bike still idles OK enough, at the moment I believe the idle is just a symptom of whatever the real issue is, which is that the bike leans out and loses power. I'm just eliminating potential causes one by one and the clutch switch...

    Clutch switch alternatives

    Thanks for the help, and the bike in question is a 2012 roadster. Removing the stepper motor is on the list that I'm working my way through, I might bump it up the list. Both TPS where replaced when the full throttle body assembly was used from the other bike, so for now the TPS are assumed to...

    Clutch switch alternatives

    It's an enormously long story that I was going to post once I've solved the problem but I'll give you a quick run down now. Bike hunts at idle (idle constantly bounces about about 50-100rpm, never stable), fluctuates between about 800, 1100, and 1400 rpm and tends to change every few seconds...

    Clutch switch alternatives

    Hi all, Long story short I'm chasing down an issue, but that's another story. I tried to buy a clutch switch today and found out the it isn't sold separately, and they want about $270 (AUD) for the whole L/H controls assembly. I've had a look and couldn't find anything about an alternative...

    Gear Position Sensor update question

    Hi all, I'm having a few dramas that seem to be pointing to the GPS on my 2011 Roadster. From what I understand there was an update to a 4 pin sensor. By the look of the service bulletin I need the wiring adapter kit T1296589 but I'm not sure which GPS I need, there seems to be a few number and...

    Rocket 3 Roadster Possibly Overheating?

    Diagnosing overheating issues can be an absolute nightmare even when you're hands on with the engine and have all the knowledge and equipment in the world. You're seriously up against it trying to solve it on a forum if you have little experience. My advice is find a new shop, the one you're...

    Coil pack

    This^^^ It is actually easier than it looks. I remember seeing it and filling with dread, but five minutes later it was out and went back in just as easy.

    Highest mileage 2500?

    Not sure why I'm getting response to things I haven't said? But just to reiterate for the OP, if you are gentle this bike will last a very long time (generally speaking), if you are mean to it then it will have a shorter life and is capable of significant harm quickly. An unverified anecdotal...

    Highest mileage 2500?

    Rockets (any of them) are very reactive to how they are used, more so than most other machines. If you use it gently it is over-engineered for what it is doing, if you use it hard it is under-engineered for the types of forces it is capable of producing. If you want to do generally gentle...
