Any issues with 2007 Rocket

[xhdskip]

Nox,
my output shaft bearing went out at 6 mos.
Replaced by Triumph at no cost to me,
they changed out the entire rear end assembly.
TPS went bad last year,
again replaced by Triumph at no cost to me.
It had a nasty habit of wearing out the back tires at an alarming rate,
but since I changed to a car tire, that problem went away.
The rest of the problems are all owner induced...
Get it, you won't be disappointed.

Wasn't fixed in 2007/08 we all had to get the recall done. ( Been fine since tho )

..it appears to be pot luck and a roll of the dice with all years of this bike, but it's worth the gamble.. :wink: ..

IF it goes out, an not all of them do,
but IF it does, Triumph has been stepping up and fixing the problem for free for years now.

No issues on mine - other than the niggling little things you can find fixes for all over this board.

Love my Rocket! Its considered an 07 Model, but when you check the vin #, you find out that year it was built. Mine was actually built in 2006. My husband has an 05 Rocket. We both had the infamous "upgrade kit" that doesnt really exist. This mysterious upgrade include the tortional output shaft bearing, fuel gauge replacement, second gear is replaced & more recently a wiring modification, the cam guides are replaced, but this is ONLY if you have problems, not everyone does and Triumph has been exceptional with replacing at no cost. Not all bikes have these issues. Cant explain why some do & dont, but I would buy another Rocket in a heartbeat; its an AMAZING bike/ride. Good luck.

I put 12,000 miles on mine. Not one problem. I did find however they don’t bounce off pick-up trucks or concrete very well at all. ops2: I’m planning not to do this test again with my 08.
