    Starter Motor

    Howdy, removed starter motor on one of my Rockets & about a liter of oil poured out πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I haven't had this happen before? Is there a non-return valve where the oil tank fits to engine? Anyone had this happen? Cheers.

    R3 Resuscitation

    Bought this bike about 3.5 months ago, was fully submerged in a cyclone here in NZ. Every nook & crany had mud in it 😳 Fully stripped a rebuilt. Lots more learnt along the way. Enjoyed doing it & now enjoy riding it πŸ˜ŽβœŒοΈπŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

    Air intake sensor mounting

    As a lot of people change to ramair or k&n, I thought I'd post some pics of where I locate the air intake sensor. Using the original mounting of the plenum I put a straight pice of aluminum & zip tied the sensor to that which is inside a small k&n filter. By the way this bike was totally...

    Howdy guys, I'm after a set of gauges 06-09 if anyone may have a set? I have bought a flood damage bike for a project & the gauges are toast but the bike did start for 5 seconds πŸ˜… I have seen posts of fitting a Dakota digital before (can't seem to find it) can someone point me in the right...

    Starter Relay

    More than likely posted before, but might be helpful to some. Was getting the dreaded click on starting... Checked & cleaned starter button, clutch & sidestand switch, also doubled up on earth lead. Starter practically new. So I thought I'd buy a new relay $20 from Repco & Boom πŸ’₯ no problems at...

    T Bars

    Thought I'd post this with a different way of installing T Bars with emphasis on the gauges. If you have NZ Thunderbike bars or from the Handle bar company you may like the gauges higher instead of them going lower (in front of bars). Take in mind I have used the rivco rises (2up 1back) but I'm...

    Wilbers shocks

    I purchased new front & rear wilbers at a great price & after a couple of good rides I must say they are fantastic! Our roads in Northland NZ are absolutely crap, but now the ride is so much more enjoyable...the misses even said her brain doesn't hit the top of her skull anymore...Bonus πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜…

    Willbers shocks

    Howdy guys, I've just bought some Willbers 640 tsp road shocks. Question is they say for Roaster 10 to 17, will they fit the earlier frame...say 09 classic? I'm thinking they are the same πŸ€” Also bought the fork springs to suit shocks...same question as above. Saves me trolling other posts...

    Got a Gremlin

    Howdy guys, got a little Gremlin issue. Had the bike dynoed the other day & it's still there! What happens is the bike sort of cuts out for a split second randomly. More so when in lower gears or lower revs. On full throttle no problems. I've changed a few maps & settled for one out of the...

    Foot Rails Swap

    Question is I want to swap roadster rails onto a classic. A mate gave me his roaster rails (after fitting forward controls) minus the brake peddle & master cylinder. Can I bolt on the classic master cylinder on the roaster rail & obviously make another brake line?? Am yet to buy a roadster...

    Primary TPS

    Replaced tps & old one heading to bin, but curiosity got the better of me, so cut it in half. Basically what I can see (not much) is why they fail is being dirty at the pick ups?? Got no idea really (you tech guys might know) but thinking spraying electrical cleaner in the a few times while...

    Howdy guys, after an ignition switch (with wires & plug) for a 2010 american import roadster....well thats what comes up on the ecu vin that I bought.
