Hi all.Recently had a test ride on the sport model and I was hugely impressed.My wife loves to ride along so I imagine that the Touring model would be the perfect bike for us.
The local stealer ship has a leftover 13 and 14,both of which they want 16,100 for out the door.They won't budge,I pushed pretty hard.
I also found 2 used examples of 2013's.
One with 2100 miles just out of warranty and another with 7000 miles under warranty until sometime in December.
My riding style I wont be afraid to twist the throttle but I have never owned a sport bike so compared to some other Rocket owners I will probably seem tame.
Are there any reliability issues to be worked out or have these models been around so long now that there shouldn't be much to be concerned with?
Seems like the earlier models had some issues that have been ironed out.
Looking for some peace of mind regarding reliability and if there are no major concerns obviously buying used makes a lot more sense.I have a dealer ten minutes from home FYI.
Oh yeah asking price is 11,500 for both used models.
