I have rocket 3 which I bought new in 2007.The 9 years I've owned it its been pretty much trouble free until a few months ago when out riding the neutral light started flickering and stayed on It only seems to be a problem when the bike is warmed up, it is fine from cold. After 5-10 miles it...
Not bikes y'all. Loving my Victory Vision and perfect for my aging body and riding pleasure.
This is about FRIENDS. I haven't found hardley anyone around other motorcycling "communities" that I care to ride with or share an evening around a campfire like the folks from the Rocket III family...
I have a 2011 R3T and it looks like I'm having a key switch failure for the second time in 6 months (first time it happened I replaced the ignition). (1) What would be the LIKELY causes for this repeated failure on a 2011 Touring? (2) Can the key switch be replaced without replacing the...
Took Mittzy up on his offer to make a switch extender harness for me so I could relocate mine to the lower left plastic panel (in front of the left side cover) like he did. I have to say that I really didn't like the stock location of that switch and Mittzy having already perfected the harness...
Can anyone tell me how the clutch switch is removed from the lever assembly? I am now convinced that although the switch is good, the mounting of it is loose & this is causing my starting problem.
I had my seat off this afternoon and noticed a microswitch. It seemed to be mounted to the frame with a double sided sticky pad but had come adrift. I stuck it back on and ran some tape round it in addition to make sure it stayed in place and to avoid possible problems in the future.
I didn't...
Installed the Easten Beaver relay harness today. All went smooth... Very easy to install but have encountered one issue- the gauges no longer sweep and the indicator lights do not light up during the self test. I hear the familiar clicking but nothing else. It starts with no hesitation and the...
2014 R3T - sorry if this has been covered...
Which are the connectors for the ignition switch and alarm, respectively, please ?
I have the service manual, and going to install DeCosse' keyless ignition, and the instructions couldn't be simpler, to wit:
1) Identify and disconnect the alarm...
Hi all pouring through the forum in anticipation of picking up my leftover 2013 and I am just wondering if the ignition switch is still something to be concerned with or have the issues been sorted out?Seems like the complaints were from older models.
First off - I am no expert, I assume no liability for this information, this is simply documenting what I did in hopes that it may help you.
I'll first post the hotwire I did almost two years ago. It got me home, but this does not turn on your headlights, turn signals, or brake lights. I'm...
It is my second season with a 2005 R3 Roadster. The weather in Edmonton has allowed a couple of rides already. Can someone tell me where the rear brake light switch is located on a 2005 roadster. I have looked in all the "normal" places
Hi All,
This ignition switch forum brought me here. Just bought a 2005 R3 in February 2015, now its broke...ignition switch problem?
I was just getting her out for a ride yesterday after being garaged for a month and half while I was away overseas for work. Started fine, but then kept cutting...
I just created a new Module to control the Headlights, used in conjunction with Ignition Switch BYpass Headlight Relay Kit.
The neat feature of this is that it gives you full manual control to turn the headlights on or off at any time - without actually having to mount an auxiliary switch for...
Hi All, here's my alternative postion for your igintion switch, wires will reach OK as well nothing to alter just hole in bear claw and rubber gromet. but i think will only work if you have triple K&N's fitted.
cheers

Does anyone have any advice on a handlebar auxillary switch block. I'm currently using the one that came with the Triumph fog lamps, it's plastic. I would prefer a metal housing. I've been searching the web for a while and have found only a couple of housings that fit a 1" handlebar.
Thanks
I got a replacement ignition switch and I removed the head lights and the chrome cover but can't figure out what else has to come off to replace this. Where are the bolts for this thing?
Having trouble with the clutch lever switch, I am told that it is possible to buy a new switch with just the tails which can then be soldered in to the existing loom. Triumph it seems only supply the switch & full harness which can be a bigger job than is needed, anyone know where these switches...
Some time ago my wife had a Moto Guzzi Breva 750. Her bike stopped a lot like mine. Took days to figure it iout but discovered it had a Fall Detection switch. If you lay your bike down it will shut it off. Hers was a mercury switch. Came across one on the Rocket's wiring diagram . #15 . Should...
Hello all I just wanted some knowledge from you guys. Overall the past few weeks the rocket has been running great no issues. About a month or 2 back I was leaving work when it began it's start procedure (needles going to right and back, fuel pump starting etc) when it just went dead...
