    Crash Guard saves the day!!!

    At a local watering hole, an ass of patron was removed by the Staff due to his high level of intoxication. After being ejected, and in a fit of rage, for some reason he staggered up to my Rocket and pushed it over... This caused me a large amount of displeasure which I directed at the drunkard...

    Do Crash Bars Protect Much?

    Hi I am thinking of fitting crash bars to my bike but not sure how much damage they would save. I am only thinking of drops and not crashes or side skids. I have tried google to find anything showing a rocket tipped over but have drawn a blank. Can anyone help, preferably with photos. Does it...

    Rocket 3 crash on highway

    We picked up the broken pieces and I limped the bike to the Rest Stop where we kicked everything straight again and used pallet stabilizer jacks from a trucker to straighten out the handlebars, which were bent like a pretzel. We said a prayer and finished the remaining 250 miles to Atlanta where...

    Rocket 3 crash on highway

    That's me in the white shirt disassembling the controls so we could bend the bars back again. My wrists were so tired I could barely use an allen wrench.

    Rocket 3 crash on highway

    Cruising on Interstate 10, five of us on bikes with me in the lead. Traffic cruises at 80 to 85 mph. Speed limit is 70 down there. Traffic in front of me went chaotic as cars were dodging something in the road. Brake lights and tire smoke is all I could see as nailed the brakes, but not so hard...

    Rocket 3 crash on highway

    The bars are twisted on both sides. If you use highway bars to protect your engine, and you lay it down at fast speeds, you can count on the bike flipping up on its wheels and coming down on the other side again.

    Crash / Dresser bars

    Just installed my Christmas present!! Got a set of dresser / crash bars, they only come in chrome. Had them black powder coated and just installed them on Roadster. Seemed kinda crazy to take brand new perfect high quality chrome, and blast it and coat it. But i didn't want them to stand out!

    Single crash bar needs

    I needed a single crash bar and didn't want to have to purchase both. After a LOT of looking around, I came across twowheelpros.com. They have crash bars for all the Rockets and you can get just one if you want. I got a single for my Touring for 150. I think that's fair. Just thought I'd share.

    Does anybody have any suggestions for a way to stop the wind that comes through there? I don't know if anyone has bought covers for their crash bars and who or where they got them from. Any help would be great. Thanks, Ken P.S. Its on a 2010 R3T.
