After a little over 1000 miles last weekend in over 90 degree heat, I have decided that it is just to dam hot to ride this bike in these kind of temps. I had the Jardine header wrapped and this helped tremendously. I am seriously going to investigate getting the exhaust header jet sprayed to...
I need some information on exhaust. I just picked up a Rocket and need to improve the sound. I have a chance to buy a used set of TOR's exhaust on Craigslist. Will they make a big difference over stock with the catalytic converter still installed? I wanted to install these for a short time...
Anybody had any experience with these? They offer K&N filter and exhaust package. Reflash required from dealer. How is sound and performance? What about decel? Popping and such? Finally if all is well, where is best price? I have D&D on my Victory and they are top quality, but expensive.
making my own hard bags out of honeycomb carbon fiber which I will be covering in leather. As it is templeted now, they sit within 1 inch of the exhausts. Has anyone had any experience with leather that close to the exhaust? Concern I guess is to scorching the leather. Just made my new seat...
Hi Guys I have a 2007 Rocket with black Predators but didn't get heat shields from previous owner. I attempted to PM Travelguy with no response. Can anyone assist me in how I might get some? My right leg and my girlfriends will thank you in advance:) !
So help me out here guys. I'm going to drop some coin on a R3 Roadster when I get back and I'm trying to decide between the Non-ABS/ABS variants (which I read to be the 2009/2010 models respectively). The reason for this dilemma is because I want to fit one of the zard systems to the bike and I...
i have to congratulate jared on taking on relocating the master with nothing to go by.. just moving that i think really cleaned up the look of the bike.. utah'in do it yourselfism at it's finest.
Hi everyone. This is my first day on the site. Last year I bought a rocket 3 roadster and after about 5000 miles decided that I am interested in upgrading the exhaust system. I was wondering if there were any preferences, and I heard a rumor that zard is comming out with a 3-1 for the...
:confused:Have just received the chrome Exh.flange covers for my new 2011 Roadster. Look good, but before I start, any words of advice on istallation of these, or things to watch out for? I don't want to muck anything up! Should I put on one at a time, or all 3 at once? Any point in using...
Are any of you running the D&D's or know a fellow Rocket owner that is or has run them? Just curious but I am interested in performance, construction (welds) , chrome quality, etc. May change from the TORS if I don't get negative feedback. If I do, TORS spoken for by Gr3ywolf a long time ago.
When I got my R3 about 6 weeks ago it had a huge muffler on it from a Yamaha Warrior. Nice and quite but lots of back pressure , and looked like a small water heater. The previous owner had installed it to get rid of some loud drag looking pipes.
I installed a super trap Universal .24 inch...
Thinking about going back to the standard exhast system from the TORS, question is should I get the standard tune 20222 (I think!) put back into the ECU, I have the TORS tune atm 20226; I intend to keep the Cat delete fitted?
I am also on a forum for Honda cruisers (shadows) and a lot of guys on that forum will do what is known as a "hole saw mod" or "rebar mod".
What this is is drilling out the baffles or punching a hole or 2 into the baffles with a long length of sharpened rebar.
It gives the bike more rumble and...
Well I had posted about an exhaust leak where the header meets the cat. bypass. Since I really didn't want to tear the whole system apart, I figured I'de just try to tighten the clamp. The existing clamp was bottomed out and still leaking so I went to try and find a slightly smaller one at a...
