Well guys, finally got around to posting some pictures of my new Rocket. It's a brand new 2012 that I picked up in London for a real deal. Already have some accessories on the beast. Did I say that this thing GOES!. I have already inadvertently laid a strip of rubber a couple of times accelerating hard while merging. And that's on dry pavement. If you lean slightly back while punching it, it will pop a wheelie. I fitted TORs to it but it isn't as loud as my America was with TORs. Nice mild throaty roar though. Smoother than the America, and a lot scarier. 5 gear roll ons from 1000 rpms are crazy....this ride has torque. Almost impossible to stall the engine at an intersection.








Sadly I recently had some people take note of the new bike and inquired whether I was selling my old one. One guy offered me more than I expected....a lot more and so....I let my America go. Don't shoot me! I just haven't ridden her with the new ride in the stable. Maybe I'll pick up a new one down the road when the fantasy starts to grow old.... but that might be some time from now. And so with no intention of leaving this site, wish me well on the new Rocket.
