Bore all you want! You'll NEVER get close to the 140+ HP, T, or MPH of the Rocket. My local stunt dude is sponsored by Triumph this year, has an 4' x 8' poster of him @ 12 o'clock on the Rocket. He, and every artical I recall reading on the Rocket, stated the handleing was "superior", unlike anything conventional thinking would have you beleive.
As far as the economy goes, you couldn't find a better time to negotiate price, as long as your "buyer" status doesn't turn to "seller" status anytime soon.
Now, You'll NEVER match the aesthetic beauty of the America! (fact!)
