    Engine stand?

    Anyone know if our engines will bolt up to a fairly basic engine stand? Or does it require an adapter of some sort? Gonna be pulling mine out again. In my wreck a couple years back I developed a small crack in the head on the right side close to the back head bolt. It's only gonna get worse, so...

    R3 vs R3T Engine

    I was visiting my local NEW TRIUMPH Dealer here in Huntsville and there was a Triumph Service Rep there. In our conversation, I asked the big question that always comes up between the two versions of the Rocket. How is the R3T underpowered? He said it was all in the Cams. The Cams are set up...

    Engine noise question

    Sorry for the second post about the bike I checked out today, but something else came to mind. At idle, there's a slight ticking noise. The guy was nice enough to let me ride it and I didn't notice it then, only at idle. The bike has less than 6500 miles on it so I don't "think" it's an issue...

    Black Engines

    I've read references to the black engine bikes being superior to the aluminum ones. Any truth to this and if so, what are the differences? Thanks.

  13. Engine cutting out

    Hello, I've got an '05 Rocket III that just started developing a problem. At about 3000 rpm the engine starts to cut out and stutter. Almost as if it isn't getting gas. There also seems to be a "whirring" sound from the top of the motor or somewhere underneath the chrome cover right below the...
