Black 05' Rocket III standard
I just bought a final drive off eat-me-bay. It was listed for a 2008 Rocket 3. It didn't occur to me until later that they started making tourings in 2008, and that final drive has a different part number. Does anybody know what the difference is ?
 
The difference is that the Touring won't fit the Standard, and vica versa.

The angles are different because of the narrow rim on the R3T.
 
Fred if I remember right the first one they sent was the wrong one for my r3t and was for the regular and classic which I think the splines was a little bigger

I sent off a question to the seller about what model it came off. I have my fingers crossed.
 
Welcome to the world of effing up Fred my boy, how many were bidding for the unit on ebay? you could probably re list it and get your money back.

It's from a cycle salvage. They are under the impression it's from an R3 standard. Guess I'll know when it gets here
 
It looks okay from the pics. Is it the right one?
