  2. Rocket Future

    Teaching or educating someone who owns a V-Rod ... is that possible? ... speaking as someone who has put a lot of miles on HDs ... well, bluntly one would have to have functional brain cells in order to be "taught" ... if one had functional grey matter, would one purchase a Vrod ??? ...
  3. Lucky First

    OK ... I finally figured out how to sign into this group ... Since I only got the Rocket a few months back, I am not very up to speed on the RAT group ... but a ride to the hill country always sounds interesting ... Chuck
  4. Rumble Road stereo

    I think he said he has an autocom ... I have a similar unit by another Brit company - Starcomm ... I have the Starcomm 1 Advance ... it works well, but so far I am just feeding in a AM/FM walkman type radio and using it to talk to the passenger ... I have tested it with a cell phone and it...
  5. Accessory outlet

    socket If you just install a standard cigar lighter plug, you don't need to JB weld anything. I bought a cigar lighter kit at walmart for less than $5 ... took a razor knife to the stock hole, shaved-off just a bit of the plastic to enlarge the hole. A regular car lighter like this has a...
  6. Flat mirror

    Just a thought ... before you toss them, see if a shop that does glass products can change the type of mirror material ... or maybe a small convex blind spot mirror added to the flat surface would work without distracting from the looks too much ... Chuck
  7. Texas ride

    New Ulm I have been to this a couple of times over the years ... neat little event ... some of the folks have been going for years, and some ride together ... so we'd be a bit of a group of outsiders ... but my experience is that we would be welcome ... There are some really nice old bikes...
  8. traditional leatherlyke's

    A Everything needed including some silicon grease is included It took about 15 minutes to put them on first time ... once the hardware is on the bike it takes less than 30 seconds to remove the bags or put them on ... Chuck
  9. treated well by these folks

    OK ... I don't have any association with these folks ... I was just treated respectfully, which is unfortunately, somewhat uncommon now days. These folks sell Triumph parts (what I ordered), Honda parts, and also sell from several aftermarket catalogs like Biker's Choice, Cobra, Tucker Rocky...

  14. Rocket Club??????

    club comment Sounds like a good idea ... However, based on experience with another model specific group and a few years of riding ... I would suggest that things will go smoother if the term "club" is avoided ... there are sound reasons why the corporate sponsors chose HOG (organization) and...
  15. Southern Cruisers Riding Club

    I am not a member. However, I do know a lot of folks that are, or that have been members. The organization is like most others in that such groups tend to be what people make of them ... so how a particular chapter is perceived will vary with the people involved. If you are looking for folks...
  16. cruise control

    Audiovox cruise Put one of the CCS100 cruise controls on the 2006 Rocket III Classic. I was able to just toss the bracket on the cruise unit and used two large zip ties to fasten it to the relay rack mount under the left side cover. Used a Simpson Strong-Tie brand Twist Strap (from lumber...

  19. Howdy from SE Texas

    Tough question ... I spent 20 years riding HD's. The Electraglide series (mostly what I had) handle well for a large bike. The Victory stock puts the HD to same as far as performance goes, and it handles well. I have never cared for meeting myself coming down the road ... prefer something a...
  20. Howdy from SE Texas

    I have just about decided on the leatherlyke bags. Thanks, Chuck
