Just bought an 07 Classic

Hey all!

I just purchased my first Triumph yesterday: 2007 Rocket Classic (Blue/Wht)

I fell in love with it after reading the Popular Mechanics article on the "Power Cruiser Faceoff" (May 2007) and reading more about it on the 'net. Got obsessed quick!

Been mostly a sportbike owner since '88 (with one Magna project bike). I sold my '94 GSXR 1100 last week.

I love the Rocket. It's more a piece of art more than a vehicle.

Looking forward to learning more from all here!

Congrats. The Rocket makes a great bike to transition from sport bike to cruiser.

Great News

Always glad to see more people that get the chance to ride and then buy the Rocket. Reading your intro brings back the fun I had when I first bought mine......matter of fact, I'm still having a great time.

WELCOME!

Excuse me! If a RIII isn't already a cruiser, what'd you have in the barn that is?

Hey Bigdel

Love the blue and white combo if they had that one and tha phantom black and white in 06 when I bought mine I would probbably still be sitting in the show room trying to decide which one i liked best.
It's a great bike have fun, be safe.
