    Gearbox

    Hmmm, me too. Tho' I have pulled mine down once already to replace the 4th gear set. Now I need to do the 2nd gear set, this does have the later 2nd gear. This box is not a nice one, when I had it down last I did look closely at the whole unit, all "looked" O.K. but as I'm not experienced with...

    Gearbox Trouble with 2013 Rocket III Touring

    I bought a slightly used 2013 Rocket III with just about 1200 miles on it. Almost right away I started noticing that when I downshift from 2,3,4,5 gear I can not catch a neutral. So say when I need to stop at intersection, I have to downshift all the way to the first and then back to neutral...

    Rocket stuck in top (5th) gear and now making grinding noise... 240HP

    Hey all, Just picked up a rocket here in Aus for a bargain price and it seems I have blown the box.... Only got 1000kms up the road before it went :( Note: The bike rev's to well over 8,000rpm , and develops around 240 HP.... An amazing piece of kit. It looks like I will have to overhaul it...

    Noise coming from gearbox

    Recently in the past 2 days I am getting a screeching noise which sounds like it's coming from the gearbox. As I pull away from a standstill it seems to happen. It's pretty loud. I have continued to ride as it doesn't seem to do it once I'm moving? Any help would be great as I don't want to do...

    Gearbox troubles!!

    Looking for your input to a gearbox problem thats just developed. Riding home tonight in traffic and moving off from a intersection could not engage 3rd gear. I mean to say, the shifter toed up into the position of third but there was nothing there but the revving of a disengaged drive train. No...

    Shanefish. New Zealand. Gearbox problems.

    Bought a 2010 Rocket3 in Dec last year. 15K on the clock when I got it, and have since added another 11K to its total mileage. Tonight, for no reasons that have me stumped, I've lost 3rd gear. No accompanying grinding metal sounds, or any other gut churning sounds of self destruction. Just the...

    gearbox difficult on down change

    The last few months or so my gearbox sometimes gets reluctant to change down. Usually its when Im in 4th. I can press harder and make it change down or I can change up and then down change and it will go into a lower gear easily. Im worried its going to lead onto bigger and badder problems in...

  15. Knackered gearbox

    hi there I have an early 2004 rocket 3, 15K miles. I've been having problems with it jumping out of third, or not being able to get it into third, particularly under hard acceleration. On Thursday I tried to upshift at 50 or 60 and it wouldn't go in at all. Around the same time it started...

  17. noisy gearbox R3?

    Evening all, is it my mount or do all R3T have noisy 'clunky' gear changes in the lower 1-3? I have had it just on a month and have done 600kms only but have thought gear changes noiser than anything else I have ridden. Regards Carey
