  1. Harley Guys Wave at Me Now

    I live in central TX. Not sure why, but when I bought my Rock a couple of years ago, I could rarely get waves from the sportbike crowd. And Harley riders...forget about it! Within 6 months of riding around these roads, the sportbikers wave all the time! The Harley guys are about 75%. I'm...

  2. Slowest Tuner in Virginia

    Glad to hear you didn't sell your bike, Hombre. Keep up the interesting work.

  3. Jardines vs TORS and bypass

    I had a Rock with TORs. Was cruising about 80 when this rumbling sound quickly approached and passed me going the other way. I realized it was a Rock and turned around. We pulled over and chatted a while. The sound of his Jars at 80 was nice, but what really got me was the idling. I still love...

  4. Did I Miss Out?

    The local Harley dealer is now selling Big Dogs. The reps were there with their bigass semi, and they were offering demo rides. I think I kind of insulted the reps when I asked them if there are any engines larger than the 117s. :confused: So yeah, I was informed that there aren't. And no...

  5. Greetings from the new guy!

    Always good to have another Texas rider join the ranks. Interestingly enough, I can count on one hand how many Rockets I've seen around the Ft. Hood area. Enjoy that bike and see ya at Lonestar sometime. Gotta head down soon to get the 10,000 service.

  6. What gas octane do you use on the R3?

    The bike was tuned on Chevron 93; I run Chevron 93.

  7. DynoJet 250i Dyno

    Hombre, For us guys with the small mods such as triples / Jardines / secondaries removed / Tuneboy, do you see any possibilities of custom ignition mapping? From what I understand, an optimal ignition map with even a minor-modded bike such as mine could yield an extra 4 - 5 RWHP...

  8. Clutch Slippage

    Sorry to hear about the clutch slipping. I had the same problem after doing the triples / Jardines / custom map mods. I put a Barnett in mine and have had absolutely no problems with slipping. But if you've got the $ for Nev's lockup, then by all means...go for it!

  9. DynoJet 250i Dyno

    Hombre, Congrats on the dyno! When you get some more $ burning a hole in your pocket, throw a party for us captains. Enjoy the dyno and try not to break it! TTG

  10. New Final Drive Ratio

    Hombre, do you plan on going the chain route eventually? I would have thought your RWHP / RWTQ would demand a chain drive by now. Is there a RWHP # when you would say to yourself, 'Yeah, I gotta get a chain'?

  11. 200 MPH Naked V-Max

    Hombre, It sure would be nice to get a bit more out of first gear! So if you did change the drive ratio, would that mean the bike would cruise at lower RPMs when doing 70 in 5th gear? This sounds like a great idea. Very roughly speaking of course, would you forsee this one costing 4...

  12. IC SC Ride Video

    Thanks for the ride, Hombre. That bike of yours accelerates quite effortlessly.

  13. bst rear wheel setup

    Yeah, those wheels are **** nice!

  14. Popping on de-accelerate with off road pipes

    Some guys like the popping. Not me - always thought it sounded like a junk car backfiring. I had that popping before I got it tuned. Gotta get it tuned, Englishguy. And I don't mean the Triumph tunes. Get a custom map for your Rocket. You've put a lot of money into her already, so why cut...

  15. new cruser

    I'll second what Mike said. Even if that B-thing is the Haya's cousin, I'd still rather have a Speed Triple!

  16. Tuning Intercooled Supercharged R3

    Outstanding numbers on the dyno, Hombre. What kind of redline are you looking at with your supercharged bike?

  17. Whine to a groan

    You rode at -10 degrees?

  18. 2008 Triumph like it?

    Imagine what a shock it'll be for someone with only 106 HP at the crank to achieve high RWHP in the 140s with triples, headers, & Tuneboy/custom map. Gives a whole new definition to buyer beware. :eek:

  19. Cruiser magazine article

    I would have stopped reading that foolish article had it not been for the bold print. Nice work!

  20. turbo made in sweeden

    Don't care for the filter placement on that one. Think I'd just go with the Supercharger or get Turbo Connections' turbo.
