So it only took 5 days for the stand to make it from Italy to my door in Washington State. Very impressed with the packaging and shipping. Everything was well wrapped and protected...so no damage in transit.
First impressions are the powder coating is very good and did not look or feel cheap...
Hey guys,
First of all, thanks and i am glad to be part of the Rocket family
Having said that
I ran into an issue after swapping out my old battery for a NOCO 12V lithium one. Everything was fine for a couple of days — did a 300-mile road trip — but then the problem started happening every...
Howdy all (from Chicagoland - Oak Park.) Just bought a new '25 Rocket 3 R in Carnival Red. Loving it so far with ~300 miles on it. Goal is to get through all 600 by end of July.
Had a TON of bikes/ATVs/3-wheelers throughout life including a very odd Honda CT110 (Aussie postie bike) and a...
Good evening Gentlemen.
After advice on a good map to start with and do's and don'ts. 3.5 bar Fuel pressure regulator has arrived, bike has staintune Australia complete system with cat delete and oxygen sensor delete. K&N filter with standard plumbing ATM. Data cable is on it's way and my Son...
Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing squeaky brakes on their Rocket 3 R (mine is a 2025 model, ~4,000 km on the clock). Under light braking at low speeds, there's a noticeable high-pitched squeal – mostly from the front.
The brakes work perfectly otherwise — strong and...
Hi everyone!
Just thought I’d introduce myself—I’m from the south side of Brisbane, Australia, and I’ve recently taken the plunge and bought a brand new Rocket 3 GT (picking it up next week and absolutely buzzing with excitement!).
I previously owned both a Gen 1 and Gen 2 Hayabusa, so this is...
Hello,
Just wanted to see how many other people are experiencing the no start issues on their fairly new rocket 3 bikes?
Just bought a new 2025 gt storm. Put 600km on the bike only to get stranded at a gas station. Once I filled up, I tried to start it and it wouldn't even crank.
Had it towed...
Being one of the lucky few with that absurd low-end torque, how do you tolerate bikes?
Is there any bike out there that could actually eclipse the Rocket in your eyes, what will be your next bike?
Looking for a 2022/23 Rocket. Not sure wether to go with the R or GT, I'd appreciate your input guys and gals.
Don't do lots of miles 2k a year normally. I don't tour and rarely take the Mrs on the back. To me that's an R all day long. However, you get more for your money with the GT and the...
He is kinda known on youtube when he joined as nobody Yammie Noob's channel and then broke up, now with his own channel, now just dropped a Rocket 3 review. I am not saying he is perfect, he just added good points to Yammie's only-sports-bike-stupid-views on cruisers, since he comes from a HD...
I have a 2005 Rocket 3, bought new. No issues except the instrument cluster goes dead every once in a while. The bike continues to run fine without the gauges. I found that if I stop and shut down the bike and restart, the gauges will start working again. This only happens every 5-6 hundred...
Your going to "loose" the ignition master switch male connector. It's pictured here (edit: black and red wires) right next to where the oil spout is. Just curve your finger behind the oil spout to find it.
You don't need to do anything crazy to get the Grey connector off. Another pro tip...
So, I decided to take a risk on Italian craftsmanship, you know, Italian suits, etc.. see how it applies to Rocket 3 seat cover replacement.
So, it is basically a cover that you get, 3 pieces, and you undo staples on the stock seat, remove the manufacture's cover, put the new one in, stretch...

Just testing, thoughts?
If anyone asks what it is, it is a security lock that goes onto a disc of the front brake. This mounted bracket allows its transport.
Why there? Well, the holes aligned. :)~
Has anyone customised or planning to customise a modern headlamp Fairing for the 2024 Storm model. Would love the retro look as well as wind blast protection as the stock windscreen is unable to do so at speed over 140km/hr.
I just did a search for a radiator cap for my 2005 Rocket III, and could only find a cap for $52 on Ebay. I found one for $42 at a dealer, but it is special order. Is there a source for the 1.2 ATM cap?
For those interested;
The 2025 R3 Storm Weight to Horse Power Ratio, (using published factory specs) compared to a common U.S. V-8 powered Muscle Car.
2025 R3 Storm
Weight - 317kg s 2.2 = 697.4 lbs
HP = 180hp
Formula
HP /Weight = HP to Weight Ratio
180/697.4 = .258hp/lb
Compared to a 2025...
