    Roadster by the end of the year

    Hi there guys, just introducing myself. I'm down in Mandurah WA, but moving to Kalgoorlie in a few months time. Got an older ZZR1100 that's been a great old war horse, but the time is drawing nigh to trade her in. After a lot of research I'm up for a Rocket III Roadster nearer to the end of the...

  3. Thinking of buying a Roadster

    Hi from New Zealand. First time on the site. I'm thinking of selling my Harley (please keep jokes short) and buying a Roadster. I'm looking at a 2008 and a 2012. Is there any real difference and did the 2008 have the little problems sorted out from the previous years. Ta Ady.

    Early 2013 vs late 2013 Roadster

    I am trying to decide whether to buy the earlier model roadster without the enhancements or a later model with the enhancements. I have an opportunity to get a great deal on an earlier model. Has anybody ridden both that could tell how dramatic the difference is?:cool:

  6. Piss! My Roadster didn't run for sh#$

    Just got back from the track with my 12' Roadster. Carpenter pipe, Carpenter tune and K and N's. Best I could muster was a 11.97 and I don't suck at riding. What the hell is wrong? Are the secondary butterflies slowing me down? Any ideas? So far this thing is a big disappointment and the...

    2013 R3 Roadster Review

    Hi All: My 2013 Roadster finally delivered and thought I'd jot down my initial thoughts and impressions. Hopefully it's of interest to those here and perhaps some help to those 'kicking the tires'. In 13 days I've ridden 400 miles and am waiting to hit 700 or 800 before taking it on some...

    looking at a new Roadster 2013

    Hi my name is Pete and I live in Australia and I am just doing some reading before buying. I have been riding for about 40 years now, my brother had a classic back in 09 and it was nice to ride but he turns over bikes ever 2 years so we never did see how the reliability of the panned out. When...

    Roadster test ride today

    My daughter and I took a drive today and took a new Roadster for a test ride. Here are some observations..... 1) It feels like a much lighter bike than it actually is. 2) It handles better, steers better and corners better than my Touring. 3) Its fast :D Here is a video of me in...

  11. Confusion about Rivco risers on a 2013 Roadster

    I was about ready to purchase Rivco risers for my 2013 Roadster, when I made a last minute query to Rivco about the part number. The answer from their "Main Tech. Guy" was that the risers were for the Touring, Classic, and Standard only, NOT for the Roadster. So, having had no experience with...

  13. Will Roadster exhaust fit 05 R3?

    I have an 05 R3 with the stock 3 pipe exhaust system. I want to replace it with a dual system. I really like the stock exhaust on the new Roadster but I'm not sure if it will fit my 05. The Rocket's design has been similar since the first bike in 04, so I'm hoping they will fit. Anyone out there...

    2013 Roadster crossover question

    Anyone know if the crossover in the 2013 Roadster is free-flowing or is it restricted with baffles (or something similar)? Just wondering if it's suggested to replace it with something like the Staintunes crossover or just leave it as is if it's not restricting the exhaust flow.

  18. Leaking gear oil on roadster

    As per the picture, I have had a small amount of gear oil leaking from this chrome cap, is this just an overflow? I had my bike in the shop to have the caliper replaced in the fall, but there shouldn't have been any reason for them to change/add fluid, so not sure why this is happening...

  20. Roadster pillion footboards

    I've been looking for black footboards for the pillion on my r3r as my wife has trouble with dodgy knees, and was finding balancing on the standard footrest while getting on and off a bit risky. I found these Kuryakyn ones, which fit fine and have adjustable mounts fore and aft,(5 positions)...
