    Final drive transmissions upgrades?

    I agree. Cruisin 100 m/h at 2000 revs with tons of torque should be possible. Les fuelconsumption for sure. I Posted my arguments about 1,5 year back at the forum.

    Airfilter problems? Ramair and original

    Three years ago I rebuilt a damaged Touring to my own taste and with various parts of the classic. I immediately replaced the airbox with the ramair and after tuning it drives quite okay. There is one point of annoyance, however. Especially when I accelerate abruptly, the engine sometimes gives...

    Detent spring mystery!

    Problem solved! Most of us know the rocket has a three piece spring-system. Further inspection made it clear my mistake was lifting the very tiny lifter-spring out of its propper place without beeing aware of it. It probably happened while putting the new detent spring in it's place. It's a very...

    Highest gears 4th and 5th fall out of gear

    I already replaced, what i think is meant by detent spring on another rocket, another friend with completely blokked gears. The small/short spring that make shifting gear possible. The story is something different while shifting gears is easily done….very smooth...but still...dropping out once...

    Highest gears 4th and 5th fall out of gear

    A friend of mine drives a touring '08. Spontaneously gear drops out, especially 5th gear but sometimes also from 4th. we checked the pedal position to be sure it reaches enough "length and depht"" and optimized the clutch. In the event of a failure, the pedal, while driving can be pushed/held in...

    Six-th gear?

    Wow!...all 5-gear fans! I guess i have to accept the fact driving a huge bike doesn't mean it also is able to do so in locomotif modus on long stretching traject. My rocket suprises me every day knowing i can drive it smoothly in 5th gear above 45 miles. I would like to switch more between...

    Six-th gear?

    Can anybody explain to me why there's no six-th gear on a rocket? About 245 nm bottom power and having to drive more than 3000 tpm at a speed of 90 miles an hour is ridiculous i think. Cruisin at about 1500 tpm should be possible and saves a lot of fuell…

    Tacho on Touring

    No.....did not succeed. It happened to be that the original tacho i bought had died. I bought a koso instead. Koso's a little bit more "bumpy" than a original but it works allright.
