Whilst, being an aged and simple soul, I can't warm to a bike where the rear end has no visible means of support.



And then on the other hand, I've always thought single-sided swing arm equipped bikes are just plain sexy as all hell.

And, the only thing I don't like that much about this new Rocket is that the exhaust is a 3-into-2 setup, and whereas I think they should have kept the whole "Triple" idea/concept/theme going throughout the bike with a 3-into-3 looking muffler instead.

(...you know, maybe sort of a subdued and smaller version of the "fantail" exhaust on Craig Vetter's original re-design of the BSA Rocket-3 that would then subsequently be offered to the public as the Triumph X-75 Hurricane after BSA folded their operations)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
