    Canadian Road Suggestions--Ontario to New Brunswick

    Here's a winter project for our Canadian rocketeers--and any others who know some good roads up there--in Ontario, Quebec, or New Brunswick. Can you suggest some good twisties in any of those provinces, places to head to next summer? I've seen plenty of pictures of good looking roads in...

    First road trip

    Right in the middle of my first road trip on the Rocket. 300+ miles and zero discomfort. The bike rides and handles so good for a big fat tire bike. 40mpg is amazing having a 2.3L engine. My wife is with me on her 2012 Spyder RT. My tune I loaded is working very good and as the miles go by it's...

  5. Not new to Rockets, or this bike either, but new back on the road.

    Bought my first rocket (a 2005) as my welcome back home gift from Iraq in early 2007. A sweet silver ride. Cruised on is between trips to SW Asia (contractor for Gen Dynamics). Came back in 2012. Fell in love and got married (again) Oct 2014. My bride decided she liked the east coast better...

    Change Roadster 2010 to HD Road King Classic EFI 1999

    Hi guy, I have 2 Roadsters, one of 2010 (48000kms) and one 2015 Roadster X. I pretend to sell old one and stay with the X. I was contacted by a guy with a 1999 Road King Classic 88 Inch EFI with 35000km whether I want to make the change because he can´t follow his friends on tour lololol...

    Add me to the club - one less Rocket on the road

    Tuesday evening, I was on my way to our weekly bike night and got rear ended by a young lady too busy texting to see slowing traffic. Got knocked off bike and went bouncing along the top of her car before taking a ride on the asphalt. I was geared up so no road salsa, but did a number on my...
  10. Rocket on the road

    Just a few pics from my recent road trip to Montelivet and Normandy beaches in France.
  11. Thanks to everyone and back on the road

    Having some great weather in most of the UK, so very frustrating that the Rocket was off the road. Mainly down to another senior moment like putting the fork seals in backwards! So we are back together and now the seals aren’t leaking all the shiny new oil it’s riding a lot better...

    Many thanks to members... my Rocket is back on the road.

    After over a year of agony repairing the girl when she spit-out a valve destroying pistons and head, and before working relentlessly to figure out a poor-running issue (ended up being plugged injectors from it sitting so long) among other things.. I pulled her out on her maiden voyage...

    My Youtube Channel and the road block

    Well fellow rocket pilots. i have hit a point in my channel where its just blah, but i got to thinking about what fellow Rocket riders would want to see. i do not see a lot of videos out there for mods to rockets or basic maintenance ( i filmed an oil change and the whole **** thing was out of...

    Got bumped on the road yesterday when I was doing 40

    Almost crashed: a completely inattentive driver in large SUV bumped me doing 40 on a local street. He changed lanes right into me without checking his blindspot. I was already in the process of passing him when he changed lanes, I had just moved into his blindspot in the process of passing. I...

    Stuff on the road.

    I want to encourage all to stop and get stuff off the highways. Be safe about it, but it could be you next time when you have something in your path and nowhere to go but to hang on and pray. I stopped the other day to pull a door off the opposite side of the road. As I was approaching I saw...
