Saw it before too. Sure is a thing of beauty but I have to agree with Nolton (only this once). Why? I could spend $11,000 on my bike but that wouldn't be how I'd do it. Actually I wouldn't spend $11,000 on my Rocket. 1 or 2 maybe but I'd use the rest to buy a Bonnie. :D
 
out curiosity I rang the guy after seeing the vid talking to him and he tells me the dude that commisioned the swingarm has spent around $250,000.00 on his rocket so far, in the vid you also see tripleclamps fork lower etc all these were made for the same bike, must be nice to have that much money to spend on a bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek:

I feel special now!! :D:D
 
I already spend to much time explaining what a Rocket is. To explain "Why" would take way to much time. The dealer here was prepping a 2012 Explorer 1200 I think it is and it looked sharp. ABS, Traction control, looks good for two up.......................after the round trip on the RIII to DC and back, my old bones were talkin and they were not saying good things.
