    Hi Bull and welcome Brian in Sagel. Just letting you know, I've let the Ellensburg wind blow me east to Coeur d'Alene, ID (I'm about 20 min. south of town off US 95 close to the west shore of the lake) about an hour south of Sagle (depending on where in Sagle)

    Carpenter 210+ VS 240+ on the street

    If it has a rev limit, I've never reached it. Never bounced off a rev-limiter and the engine sounds just as healthy with the tach needle off the scale as it does at any other RPM. It truly does feel great. It also feels strong -very strong.

    Carpenter 210+ VS 240+ on the street

    Here's the dyno sheet Bob Carpenter sent me on my 210+ (mine has his header/pipe and this sheet was done with no air cleaner or plenum). FYI, I've run mine with the tach needle near the bottom of the tach and it just keeps pulling (I have no idea what that RPM would be.)

    I'm interested, but I'll be finishing up our move from E'burg. If we're done, and I've recovered (I'l be about 3 weeks shy of 61 at that point), I will make it. May even bring the wife on her Harley (if you don't mind --she's not hard on the eyes! ;-) )

    Roadster windshield / fairing

    Please warn us when you do! (I don't want to see) :eek: As for me, I've had two Harleys, one with a removable screen ('05 Road King Custom) and the other had the bat wing (Custom built on Kenny Boyce FXR frame.) R3X has the short Triumph screen, mounted as high as I could get it. I always wore...

    Heh-heh-heh, Spook-a-loo, Spokompton, Spoke-a-Vegas! All just nick-names for Spokane. Just ask Bob R.

    Rocket Owners Northwest

    Just to clarify, both of these rides are around the peninsula? Can't do the first one, in the process of moving east (note that I changed my location above, but perhaps you will need to edit your database.) The second one may also be out of the question for me as I may be riding through Canyon...

    Carpenter 210+ VS 240+ on the street

    LOL- sure thing -just don't be disappointed if you don't see it for awhile. I have a different rack (than the Rivco model) now that I'm messing with. If it doesn't meet my expectations, then I may try the Rivco rack (at least there is some additional hardware to mess with!) I'm also now...

    Carpenter 210+ VS 240+ on the street

    Rivco makes it, but only for Honda VTX-c. Here's a link. Don't know what mods might be required. I took the steel off the bottom of my passenger seat and am looking at using it to mount a rack (with some mods.) http://www.rivcoproducts.com/products/product.php?productid=189&cat=273&page=1

    For Sale 2007 Rocket III with Carpenter Engine + Many Extras

    You obviously don't care for my opinion so there are two things -I don't care for yours either. Nelsonto was asking for input from the get-go. I offered to buy the Beetle bags months ago. He declined. So "Bubba" is name calling in my book -which you stooped to. I did not reply to this thread...

    For Sale 2007 Rocket III with Carpenter Engine + Many Extras

    I had some input from others in the form of replies to my ad. I only listed on C/L and Cycletrader. Some "experts" tried to tell me I did not posses a Kenny Boyce FXR frame (I actually knew who built the bike, and that's exactly what I had.) The difference -it was a private conversation. That...

    For Sale 2007 Rocket III with Carpenter Engine + Many Extras

    If I'm not mistaken, bcskier, the '09 to which you referred was a relative basket case (compared to either yours or nelsonto's) that had been in a very bad wreck and was substantially misrepresented as to its condition by it's owner. BTW, should it make you feel any better, you are not the...

    For Sale 2007 Rocket III with Carpenter Engine + Many Extras

    Bump As far a value is concerned, NADA or KBB may be good guides, but looking on Craigslist, Ebay and Cycletrader will give you a better idea of what people (dealer and private) are asking. What is actually paid is the unknown. I bought my "brand new" 2008 with 210+ pkg. and Carpenter...

    My life is very unpredictable these days, but if it works for our schedule, I'll be there. I think you typo'd the RAA X location -did you mean Arkansas -AR? Not AK, Alaska? I can't see having a rally in Alaska in April -just saying. ;-)

    Hey Rick, tell me about your luggage rack [please] Mfg/Brand, model number, did it bolt right up or did you drill holes in the fender? Thanks and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Is this really for a Roadster? Your bike is a R3T not a Roadster.
