I inherited a Rocket III with training wheels

Dunno about finding those badges, Captain (that's what we call Rocket III pilots) Kevin but I do have a tank in excellent condition but for a very tiny ding on it's top side (caused by my elbow during a little get off last year, I think), plus the badges for $250. A little Bondo/filler and repainted, it 'll look and work as new should you need or want a replacement.

BTW, next time you feel like removing the tank, disconnect, clean and recrimp the spade connectors to the top of the coils and coat them liberally with a bit o' pookie (dielectric grease). It will save you from a possibly disabling breakdown on down the road.

Welcome to the site and enjoy the ride you lucky dog!

Been almost 4 months since my last post on this thread!

Finally got around to removing the training wheels!
Had to buy some used gauges and all the chrome goodies that hold them on after removing the funny looking Corbin clam shell fairing.
Put on new tires, Bridgestone Exedras (it still had the original Metzelers from 05)
Found out through the help of this forum it has D&D pipes
Put in a new map with ECUTune

Took it out for a little spin today(still don't have title but its coming soon finally)
AND OOOMMMGGG....
I about pooped my pants when I twisted the throttle while in first gear doing about 15mph and the front wheel came off the ground for about 40 feet until I let off...WOW

Had a dealer tell me that it has a ton of torque but they're too heavy to wheelie. LOL
