    Brakes

    I'm replacing the front pads. The pad pin has a hex head. Do you need to torque it to specs? How? Is there an attachment for a torque ratchet wrench for an L shaped allen key?

    Tires

    I just got new tires - Exedra Max rear and Metzler front. As I was leaving the dealer, they told me to take it easy in turns for 50 miles because the manufacturers put a sealant on the tires which makes them slippery. I'd never heard about this and never took it easy with new tires, but I looked...

    Bad Racing

    I pulled up to a new F type Jag at a light. We were turning left onto a two lane road. He nailed it and I thought I would just pass him on the right and dust him. Well I nearly spun out in the turn and when I got control he was pulling away very fast. My big bad. I caught him in third after...

    Shifter for Classic

    I thank whoever did it first and posted it for me (I forget), but an alternative to the heal-toe shifter for the R3 Classic is a shifter from an older speed triple. I got it from Bike Bandit: PEDAL, GEARCHANGE, ASSY (1391773) $86.06 CAPSCREW M6X20 (1397413) $0.74 This is what it looks like...

    Baffles for Jardine Big Boss Rumbers

    I'd like to quiet these down. Here is a picture of the back of the muffler. Is that cylinder in the muffler the baffle? I gave Big City Thunder what I think is the inner diameter of this cylinder and I know that it goes over the inner pipe in the front of the muffler 13 1/2" down the cylinder...

    Classic shifter peg

    I want to put an extra long Kuryakyn Longhorn Iso-Shift peg on my heal-toe Classic shifter. Has anyone done this? The standard one looks like it's welded on. I am thinking of cutting it off, grinding it flat, and either drilling a hole or tapping some threads.

    Jardines

    My new bike has Jardines and they are hot, hotter than stock, as I recall. Can I do anything with the headers, like more shielding, wrapping with heat tape, or coat them inside or out?

    Triple filters/ramair

    I did the triple filters on my first Rocket but wasn't happy with the available tunes at the time so I took them off. Assuming you have a proper tune for these and dyno results with the same exhaust, does anyone know if they shift upwards the peak torque rpm and by how much?

    Gear shift lever

    I'd like to get rid of the heel part of the gear shift lever on the classic. Anyone do this? Can you just replace this with the shift lever from the standard? This seems a lot shorter than the front end of the heel-toe shifter. Thanks.

    Triple filters

    I live in a windy, dusty area. Is it a good idea to leave the Bearclaw off with the filters exposed?

    New (old) bike

    I had a 2005 R3 for 8 years, then I retired from motorcycling (at 65). After 4 months, I got a 2012 T-Bird. After installing a Big Bore kit, I broke my foot and was out of commission for 8 months. I sold the T-Bird in 2014 and retired again. Then I got Rocket fever and checked into getting a new...
