    Stinger deployed to end high-speed motorbike pursuit after illegal riders flee police

    Well, I guess spiking the tires is better than doing a high speed PIT on them. ;) Video of chase/spiking: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/moment-police-chase-ends-stinger-102511816.html bob

    TORS and Ramair - need a tune that's in-between...

    Have you looked at this one? Resource Download - HansO R3 early models with ramair cat delete, TORS and decel pop tweak The best thing, IMO, to do is to find a tune that is pretty close to what you are running and then find a shop that can get it on a dyno for you. Hopefully you can find a...

    Rocket III Valve compressor tool to be available again.

    @OhioDavey1 I used to have the tool made/designed by @Rocket Scientist and this thread made me go look for it because I could have sent it to you, but, it seems to have flown the coop. Now I wonder if I loaned it to someone and never got t back. Somewhere in the deep recesses of my pre-chemo...

    How to lift?

    Even up in the air I would recommend you only do one at a time so you don't drop the swing arm suddenly when you pop the second shock off with the other one off. bob

    Anyone have stock touring mufflers, I am in Canada.

    Before going to the trouble of trying to find stock pipes I would try to get it inspected with the TORS installed. They aren't that much louder and the stamping that says for off road use only is nearly invisible, even if you know where to look. bob

    Want to Buy Rocket 3 Touring Handlebar risers

    Or the people spend their time on the various facebook sites for the Rocket and never come here. If only they knew what they are missing. I try to point them here but who knows if it takes. ;) bob

    Relocating Coolant Tank - Left side details

    I imagine it could go there but I personally have not heard of it. I took my emissions stuff, including evap canister, off and mounted a Suzuki voltage regulator there. Other people have taken the evap canister off and placed the compressor for a louder horn there but that is all I personally...

    Relocating Coolant Tank - Left side details

    I have seen two options. 1. Replace your OEM filter set up with Ramair or K&N pods and take the OEM filter out and relocate overflow bottle into there. That is what I did. 2. Buy (or make) an aftermarket overflow canister that can be mounted to the side of your radiator or put on the crash...

    Going to the Sun Road

    There are a lot of good roads and things to see in this section of the US. If you want tips of things to see and roads to ride outside of MT, over into Idaho and Eastern WA let me know. I lived up there for 20+ years. bob

    Going to the Sun Road

    #1 Tip. Wait until July. By then the road should be open and you will only have to deal with wet roadway in a few places. Dress warm. From Calgary I would do the first day down Highway 2 and make a stop in Nanton at the Bomber Command Museum and then cross the border at Carway. There is also...

    Multi-pot madness | Record-breaking 48-cylinder Kawasaki-based behemoth to star in upcoming auction

    That thing must sound like all of the bees in hell have been unleashed and are heading your way. If I were rich it is something I would buy just to terrorize the neighbors with! bob

    2014 R3T de cat

    The cat box is empty. Buy a crossover from Paul Bryant (Viking Exhaust) and replace it. You can do a search here for many posts about Paul and his exhaust building. I don't think they can be drilled out easily. IIRC someone years ago posted that they used a very long drill bit and removed them...

    Would you consider having a Norton 961 in your garage?

    That black one is absolutely gorgeous, I am glad there is an ocean and a large land mass between it and me. ;) bob

    Would you consider having a Norton 961 in your garage?

    How about a Commander P53, twin rotor Wankel. It can be in your garage. :) https://www.mecum.com/lots/1102755/1993-norton-commander-p53/?aa_id=510618-0 bob

    Motorcycle Lift?

    If I lifted mine more than I do (2-3 times a year) I would invest in a Big Blue. As it is the harbor Freight ATV/Motorcycle lift work for what I do. bob

    Overfilled the tank and stalled out

    Short term, start it up and hold the throttle open until it clears, it doesn't take long. Long term, remove the emission stuff which will include the evap canister. As a bonus it will open up a pretty nice spot behind the LH side cover...

    Fuel filter renewal

    One small bit of advice. If the Roadster is anything like the Touring and the tank bottom plate is held on with multiple small nuts you need to be very careful when tightening them down, I found out the hard way that going to the recommended torque in the service manual resulted in a couple of...
