    HOW MANY SUPERCHARGED BIKES UP AND RUNNING?

    Based on my past forced-induction vehicles, lifespan is inversely proportional to the amount of boost you run. More boost = shorter lifespan unless you spend a lot of money upgrading internals. Good fuel with sufficient octane, watching air fuel ratios, keep temps in check, and limiting...

    Re-Rocketing

    I'd like the big lump to rev out just a bit more. That is what I am missing compared to some of my other bikes. When I had my original Rocket, all I could think about was having Carpenter build me one that would rev to the moon (comparatively) yet still maintain that low-end, tidal wave push...

    HOW MANY SUPERCHARGED BIKES UP AND RUNNING?

    @Dingle, the result is absolutely awesome. It was definitely a labor of love. If I could find someone to build it, it would probably be my next mod.

    Can a Rocket III take down the establishment, and rule this island

    I just read through all 19 pages of this thread so far. It's absolutely fascinating, and I appreciate the write-up. I've been through a few major builds like this, and I really respect the perseverance it takes to get this all worked out. I can't wait to see a full pass at 100% throttle with...

    HOW MANY SUPERCHARGED BIKES UP AND RUNNING?

    Did you mean 2.3 or actually 2.5? In your sig, what clutch levers and mirrors are you using?

    HOW MANY SUPERCHARGED BIKES UP AND RUNNING?

    It would help too if the companies that have developed the list could suggest (not endorse) installers that could do the work. Overall, a turbo would be my first choice as you are harnessing free energy and very easy to adjust the boost. Superchargers always consume some energy to drive them. On...

    HOW MANY SUPERCHARGED BIKES UP AND RUNNING?

    Glad it worked out for you. I am so tempted by this, but I would need to find someone to build it. I moved not long ago and have no real workshop area.

    Best headlight upgrade?

    I ordered two JW Speakers. The place I bought them from has a decent return policy, so I'll give them a shot. If they don't live up to the hype, I'll just buy the Eagles and add Darlas.

    Re-Rocketing

    I posted a bit about my 2014 in another thread. I sold it as I never quite came to terms with it. Compared to some of my other bikes. It felt good, but never quite great, to me. The handling was mostly the issue for me and lack of top end pull on the 2300. Then they came out with the 2020's I...

    Starting over with 2022 R - best bang for 3-5k

    I am going in for a recall anyway. I confirmed I need both parts to do it. As luck would have it, they had one in stock but at an old price. The package was a little bit up so they gave me a discount on top of it. Turned out out to be a pretty good deal. As long as they don't charge me a...

    Starting over with 2022 R - best bang for 3-5k

    After riding the bike for a bit, I've decided to add shift assist. For the quickshifter do I need anything else but part# A9778833 to make it work with my bike? Do I need to order part# A9770232 gear change assembly as well? I have a Rocket R. I've been trying all morning a few Triumph shops and...

    Time for a Texas Roll Call

    I thought about one dealer, but heaven help us if, after deleting all the bad 1-star reviews, there are only 3-star ones left for the good...

    Starting over with 2022 R - best bang for 3-5k

    Verex has been very responsive so far. I like how it looks and sounds. Here is their response regarding fitment. "The muffler uses the factory clamp for attachment to the headers. There is a small gasket on the header outlet that does not need to be removed for installation, and the muffler...

    Best headlight upgrade?

    I absolutely agree with many of your points. I am a big fan of light quality over quantity but there still has to be enough quantity. At the same time, I'll err on the side of more brightness than not enough. I hate to say it my eyes are older now and once was exceptional eyesight is maybe just...

    My carbon parts are here.

    Glad someone brought this thread back to life. I would also like to know if they held up well, and if so, which ones are they? I like the union jack tank pads. Anyone know which ones they are?

    Turbo Kits currently available?

    Is anyone making turbo kits for the 2020+ models? I'd rather have something relatively turnkey as I don't have any free time to do R&D in my backyard.

    Best headlight upgrade?

    The Eagles look like a good place to stop my search for now. I just need to decide if I want to go with the chrome ones to brighten it a bit or go for the murdered-out look and keep the interior black.
