    Want to Buy Rocket III Starter

    Hey all, I'm looking to get a used starter to try to fix the intermittent issue I'm having. I think all I need is the nose of the starter, but I'll buy the whole thing if available. I ride an 08 Touring.

    Cleaning the Starter

    Today I'm taking apart the starter and cleaning it per Sparky 's recommendation in hopes of solving my intermittent issue with starting. There's oil on my Bendix, see attached picture. Is this normal?

    Wiring in a new Circuit

    I've been trying to wire a relay into an existing circuit that is only powered while the bike is on with little success. I tried wiring the relay to close when there was power on the position light circuit, this caused the bike to have no tail light, presumably because the tail light is on the...

    Looking for Recommendations - Grips

    Hey all, I've been lusting after a set of Rizoma Sport grips for a while now, but after looking up how much the 1" diameter ones cost now ($150 pre-shipping) I'm looking for other options. Any recommendations? I don't really care about heated grips, but I'd like something with some nicely...

    I'm 3D printing a switch block panel to replace the cigarette lighter panel on the side of my 08 R3T. The block that I've designed should hold between 6 and 8 switches, depending on the size of the switch. They're currently made of solid PLA plastic, but if I start having issues with things...

    Designing Seats - Opinions Needed!

    Here are some of the sketches I've drawn up so far. I plan to install both waterproof fans and seat heating elements in the new seat, as shown on the attached diagram. I also plan to have the custom seat guys cut a hole in the foam so that I can install a rider's backrest in the future. I think...

    Valve Shim Job

    So I've been working on a valve shim job with the help of the tool designed by @Rocket Scientist and loaned to me by @1olbull . I've got all of my relevant shims measured and the measurements are as follows: My question now is should I be shooting for 0.10mm clearance or 0.15mm clearance on...

    New Flood Lights, Turn Signal Strobes

    I've been working on adding beefed-up turn signals and some flood lights onto the bike over the last few days, and think I've finally got everything installed and functioning. I thought I'd run my installation past you guys just for a sanity check, even though sanity may be in short supply here...

    Electrical Gremlins Part 4

    I have a new issue that I'm trying to get solved before the big RAA West trip. I think I've seen this happen with @nolton 's bike, and maybe someone will remember what the fix was. What's happening is when I have the ignition on and the killswitch off, (bike ready to start) the bike just makes...

    Indicators Not Functioning

    I've been working on the bike again today. When I got on it this morning I noticed that the indicators weren't working. When the indicator switch is moved to either side the headlight and cluster will flicker slightly, but the indicators do not light. I thought it might be an issue with the LED...

    Electrical Gremlin Strikes Again

    Well, I've been staying up late working on the bike for two days trying to chase out this electrical gremlin. The OLED screen on the cluster is blank, but backlit, the gauges don't sweep or anything, the killswitch does nothing. Headlights come on, battery is charged, fuses are good. Bike will...

    Blank display, No status lights, and other issues

    Well gents, it's been a trying night. Been cold or rainy or both for the last several weeks here in OK, so the bike has been living up to its name making smells in my garage every week or so. This evening, when I went to try to start it up, the display came on and showed blank. The ignition...

    3D Modeling and Parts Fabrication

    As some of you know, I work in 3D modelling software for a living. I've been watching a lot of threads lately in which people are talking about the exorbitant price or unavailability of certain trim elements. I think that if I had a detailed model of a stock bike, or a 3D scan of the part, or...
