A trip from the Harley to the Roadster

Well I sold the old Road King. It is amazing how much damage 1 bearing can do. After pouring money into the thing to make it perform how I wanted it still didn’t do it for me and I needed to pour more money into it. The gearbox needed a rebuild.
I have always wondered what the Rocket 3 would be like to ride. So picked up a 2016 Roadster with 9,000 ks. 3 months later I am thinking I should have got it earlier rather than stuffing around trying to get more power from the Harley.
I find the Rocket easier to throw around corners than the Harley, with better cornering clearance. The Rocket is compact and well balanced.
I need to fiddle with the rear shockers though. They feel over sprung and under dampened. So they may need to be tossed. Even 2 up this thing is a powerhouse and is just so easy to ride fast and relaxed.
Looking forward to do some long Distance runs.

Cheers,
marx
