    1st Service Question

    My dealer is about 40 miles from where I live and I cant find the time to get my rocket in for its first service. I've got about 800 miles on it, so I have to get it done pretty quick.

    Sitting on the saddle bags

    Does anyone ever just throw their leather saddle bags across the seat and sit on them? I've done it for years because its just easy and quick, but have always wondered if anyone thought I was crazy for doing it.

    gas smell

    Since I have gotten my rocket, I have a strong gas smell in my garage. Anyone else have this? I've "sniffed" all around the bike, but not found anything; no visible leaks, no puddles, everything seems tightly fitted. Any ideas?

    R3tobe is now BlueStreak

    Ok Captains, with the help of Tom, I've had a name change. When I joined , I had yet to get my Rocket and I was "R3ToBe." Since I got my Rock a few weeks ago, the "ToBe" didnt work any more. Since I got a blue and aluminum classic, I thought BlueStreak would work well. All of my posts that...

    Speedo question

    I've read several places that the rocket speedometer isnt too accurate. How much is it off, and in which direction? I go along with the flow of traffic on the interstate. Where I am driving, most cars usually go around 80. My speedo is saying around 88-90. Any idea how fast I am actually going?

    Helmet Preference

    Whats everyone wearing? I'm wearing a half helmet, but dont really like the look...sits up too high on my head...I can hear the theme song from the 70's "CHIPS" playing. Got a shorty ordered for the remaining hot months and then will need a full face. What looks good with a Rock?
