  1. What year Rocket to buy

    I have a 2008 Classic with saddlebags, wind screen, factory seat, Corbin single seat, factory Roadster seat. Has 6100 miles on it. Considering selling it - just don't ride enough to justify keeping it. If you're interested, let me know. I still haven't decided for certain to sell it. I went...
  2. riding in paradise..

    Riding in Texas, from California Planning a trip to visit Texas in October. Would like to get the Rocket out there prior to my arrival so I don't spend 6 days on the road getting there and back. Are any of you aware of a way, short of paying $500 each way, to get a bike from SF Bay Area to...
  3. Roadster Shocks on '08 RCIII

    Swapped OEM '08 RCIII Shocks for OEM Roadster Shocks Okay, so I took a few minutes and swapped my OEM 2008 Rocket Classic shocks for OEM shocks taken off a 2010 Roadster. These were free to me so I wanted to see if it changed the ride at all. I had hoped to have a less harsh ride. I went...

  6. Roadster Shocks on '08 RCIII

    A buddy is replacing his original Roadster shocks with 1" lower shocks and giving me his new OEM Roadster shocks for my 2008 RIII Classic. What should I expect the change to be? I'm hoping for a softer, or less harsh, ride. Will this be achieved by swapping out my originals with the Roadster...
  7. 1st Bike in 35 Years

    Yeah, you probably think I'm crazy for buying such a big bike, but - you're right!! I am crazy! crazy about my 2008 Rocket Classic. Already made a couple of changes - new Corbin Seat (how does any OEM get away with such horrible seats?), exhausts (made before I bought the bike and will...
