  1. Pegs for Triumph Dresser Bars

    I had the same opportunity to test my Triumph bars, and mine also bent but did not break. That said, when I repaired the bike, I replaced the Triumph bars with the Rivco, and am much happier. The Rivco bars DO NOT flex, and are much more comfortable when used in conjunction with their highway...
  2. cruise control

    Ok, I just finished installing the Audiovox CSS-100 automotive cruise control on my '06 RIII Classic and it works GREAT! These little babies can be had for around $100 on Ebay and various other sources. It requires fabricating 1 metal bracket that any machine shop could make for under $50 (hell...
  3. Undertank K&N

    Thanks Tom, worked like a charm. New filter is on, and everythink seems A-0k.
  4. Growing Trend

    I'm reminded of a postcard I once saw; a guy in a Speedo with a prominent bulge and a towel over his face. Caption reads " an ounce of image is worth a pound of performance". How you answer probably tells volumes about what you ride.
  5. Undertank K&N

    Can someone give me some info regarding the 12 minute tune mentioned in the first post for this topic? I'm going whith the ru-5111's for the time being, as I'm a little concerned about water with the ru-1700's in some of our Florida downpours. John
  6. this is so not good

    Have to agree totally here. My closest dealer is only 40 miles away, yet I travel 120 miles to a dealer that truly wants my business. I bought the new RIII Classic from him, and paid about 10% more than I would have from an out-of-state dealer; Money well-spent in my opinion, since he always...
  7. aftermarket pipes

    Any idea about a header system for a 3 into 2 pipe setup, with 1 pipe on each side of the bike? So far, the only one I've found is by Raask in Sweden, and theirs is a full exhaust system. I'm trying to find a header that I can uses these on.. http://www.tailgunnerexhaust.com/models.php...
  8. Kuryakyn Ellipse Mirror Install

    Pig9R My dealer is telling me my mirrors/levers are push thru like a Harley & not threaded. He said he talked to Kuryakin & this mod won't work on an '06 Classic.. Any helpful info? I really like the looks of those mirrors.. :confused:
  9. Latest Rocket III Review

    Looks exactly like mine DID, before the cager ran me off the road :mad: One thousand miles on it, I hadn't even made the first payment. The only changes I'm making in the re-do are the Kuryakin elliptical mirrors, and the rivco highway bars instead of the factory ones (factory bars flexed...
  10. cruise control

    found this posted on another rocket III forum, looks interesting, here's the link www.r3owners.com/viewtopic.php?t=2588 uses an Audiovox CSS-100 cruise control. screwloose
  11. cruise control

    Can anyone point me to the link where the guy modified his Rocket to use a true cruise control (I think it was an audiovox)? It was a pretty complete post, and I saw it before I actually purchased my own rocket & now I can't find if. If deleted, maybe someone has the guy's email or a way to get...
  12. Rocket Shop Manual

    Re Shop Manual I went back & reread the item description: it says it is an exact REPLICA so there's our answer, it's a repro. I'm still happy. Screwloose
  13. Rivco bars, boards, pegs, and chrome installed

    Rivco Highway bars My set of Rivco highway boards arrived today, and I'm totally satisfied... with Rivco that is. I mounted them on Triumph highway bars, and the Triumph bars flex like crazy. I have little doubt the thin metal flange Triumph uses to attatch the lower bars to the engine will be...
  14. Rocket Shop Manual

    It is somewhat different from the manual I bought for my Bonneville T100 from the factory, but if it's a reproduction, they did a superb job. The manual appears to be brand-new It has the blue & white covers like my bonneville manual, although a different shade (navy for the new Rocket manual...
  15. Rocket Shop Manual

    Just a quick note for anyone interested; I just purchased a factory shop manual from a guy on Ebay, it arrived today, and I'm totally satisfied. It was 47.00 including priority shipping, and arrived in 2 days. Hope this doesn't violate any posting rules, but as this is the first manual for...
  16. Kuryakyn Ellipse Mirror Install

    Which adapter kit did u use, pig9r, the one for the Yamaha, or the kawasaki-victory-et al? Thanks
  17. Are you sitting comfortably?

    My Stock classic seat is PAINFUL! :eek: I also have a Bonneville T100 with the factory King/Queen seat on it, and have done 1,000 mile days in the past; I can't imagine the same thing on this classic III. It feels great in the driveway, and for the first 30-40 miles, but after that, I'm...
  18. Rivco bars, boards, pegs, and chrome installed

    Hondax, do you have a part number for those Rivco Highway boards? They look EXACTLY like what I want, but the Rivco webpage won't disply anything for me. Will they work with the factory engine bars? I'm into distance riding, so I'm no wimp in the seat, but my stock Classic has me crying after...
  19. Shock Replacement

    Looking to replace my stock suspension. Wife is 180 lbs, I'm 240. Any opinion whether i should go for the 12.5" standards or HD's ? Thinking mostly about her comfort. She finds the standards pretty stiff. :confused:
