I've own motorcycles for over 45 years. Wow, I sure am old!
It amazes me how well some of our Captains ride. Last year at Maggie Valley I met a lot of our members. For the most part, I found the caliber of the group to be well above the large groups I've been with at rides and charities. Being humble isn't one of my natural traits. Most Rocket riders are truly better than I am on the twisties. Kind of surprised me just how weak the guys are who I ride with back in Michigan. The common trait is our Rockets. For a big cycle, ours are Monsters with a combination of power, speed and torque that I've not seen in any other platform. Being called a "flat lander" must mean the interstate is where I ride. Truly,seeing good riders on Rockets, both 2300 and 2500, show just what a bad ass machine I own. Harley riders will never understand any of this. Seeing the look on other's faces on the Highway make it hit home.
