  2. NoStart

    Well, the dealer never did find the problem. They worked on it for 2 days, trying to reproduce the problem and removing and cleaning out the start switch. Apparently, the keyswitch was ok. I'm now tending to think that a relay was temporarily hung up. I brought her home, and she has not...
  3. NoStart

    Hi, Guys; Well, I couldn't wait. I grabbed the VOM, went outside (in the snow), and pulled the seat off the beast. Voltage key off is 12.5-12.75. Voltage key on is the same. Check neutral, and the kill switch, hit the start switch, no change in values. Guess it isn't the battery. I do not...

    tdragger says: "With everything else working (gauge sweep, etc) except the head lights and the starter, I'm afraid to say it may be the ignition switch. That is exactly what happened to mine." My reply: Thanks for the tip, tdragger, I borrowed a vom from a friend, and have some time off...

    Hi, Ray; No problemo....I checked the kill switch several times...just forgot to mention it in my last post. Thanks for the help!

    Hi, All; I went out to crank up the 'Silver Bullet' this morning to go to church (honest!), and while everything set up as normal (all indicators, all the right sounds, including the fuel pump), when I punched the 'start' button, absolutely NOTHING happened. I tried several times (key off/key...
  7. A 'State Law' Question

    Hi, Guys; I own a Rocket 3 'std' that I do some touring with. I am planning a ride to California 'and environs' in May, and have what I think might be a problem. My bike is fitted with the 'TORS' Exhaust system, which I think is pretty loud. Around Albuquerque, the cops don't even bother to...
  8. Why I bought a Rocket III

    Why I bought a Rocket... My story is a little strange. My other bike is a Kawasaski Voyager XII (1200cc tourer) with over 90kmiles on it. I wanted something nice, all metal and economical (and fun) to ride around town (streets in Albuquerque,NM are notorious for poor repairs, and many potholes)...
  9. Christmas Video for r3owners.net

    That was beautiful, Skip. May you and yours have a Blessed, Merry Christmas! I'm definitely going to pass this on! Hank in Albuquerque
  10. Woohoo!

    Re: Woohoo!! Thanks, All! Budman, she wasn't in for an upgrade, I was riding to work 2 weeks after I'd bought her,and wound up as a tailgate ornament on an old Ford pickup after blipping the throttle to shift from neutral to first. Still not quite sure how that happened. $5500.00 worth of...
  11. Woohoo!

    She's back-and just in time for Christmas!!! Finally, after 3 months of frustration and chasing parts back and forth across The Pond, my Beast is back in my driveway! After a short ride back from the dealer (it was too cold to go far, and I wasn't dressed for it), I can only say that the dealer...
  12. Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas to All, and may you all have a Happy and Prosperous New Year!! WilburT, when's your open house? It would be neat to see a pic of that forest filled with Rockets!! :cool::D
  13. Oil Tank Leak

    Oil Leak As a friend of mine that used to ride a Bonnie back in the early 70's used to say... "I just throw a rag under it and it knows what to do...":rolleyes:
  14. Hepco & Becker bags

    H&B Bags... Thanks a Lot!! Those bags remind me of the Krauser bags that were available in the '70's. Well built and very practical!!By the way, can I ask what kind of MPG's you get with the blower at full tilt?? (Yeah, I know, if you ride a modified R3, you don't worry about gas mileage!!)
  15. Looked at the Nomad 1700

    The Nomad I have never been a V-Twin fanatic, I guess that's why when I was looking for something to complement and possibly replace my '03 Voyager (with nearly 100k on it), I wound up with a Rocket instead of a '10 Voyager. Kawasaki makes good bikes, they just don't have the 'personality' of...
  16. Hepco & Becker bags

    H&B Bags Could someone please post a link to these guys? Really like the look of the bags. Thanks!
  17. whats the link to the japanese r3 site

    R3 Japanese site I downloaded the translator, rebooted, went to the site, and it still came up in japanese! How long does it take for the translator to kick in? I thought there were some pretty stringent displacement rules in Japan (nothing over 500cc or something like that)? Of coursae...
  18. 'Da Baby

    New Baby Beautiful Gal! What's her birth weight?:D I've always loved red/maroon! What are your plans for her (Inquiring minds want to know!!) See you on the road!!
  19. Made room for the R3 today in the garage

    New Rocket... Well, if the wife will not let you keep it in the garage, the dining room is a viable alternative!! Congratulations!!:):D
