Ride
2011 Roadster
This marks my 4 year anniversary of being a Rocketeer! 1 April 2011, I walked into my local dealership with no intention of buying anything, and rode out on my brand new Roadster. I'd never even heard of it before. I was sitting on a Hyabusa when I spied my lady from across the floor. Love at first sight.
 
Not many bikes cause that sort of emotion .. few and far between I'd wager . Happy Anniversary mate.
 
I saw mine on the net.. Price was right and bought it sight unseen

Similar story,
pulled in, not looking to buy anything.
Pulled up to the exhaust side and thought,
"Boy, that's the ugliest motorcycle in the world,
couldn't nobody love that thing."
One test ride later, I changed brand loyalty
after 35 years on Americas "finest" ....
I felt like I'd never been on a "real" bike before...
 
Went with my brother for him to check out a Roadliner.
Saw it, sat on it, put it on the Visa & Rode it home - in the darn rain no less!
In 2004 I was very close to a new Rocket, but the new V2K giant V-Twin won me over.
Is a good motor (80K + miles) still have it, seldom ride it; . . . ain't NO Rocket!
