Laurel and I took a consolation trip up to the mountains a couple of weeks ago because my knee is so shot that there was no way that I could make the Texas run even in the truck. One of Jerry the knife makers buds rides so he offered to take us on a 3 hour loop of his favorite roads. What a hoot! If you have not been on route 80 up near Spruce Pine, ya need to put that one on your bucket list!
A few years ago Paul @Joesmoe and I were having a conversation regarding heavy motorcycles and the inexorable progression of age and riding said heavy motorcycles. The last thing he said was "time waits for no one"
About 2 hours into that 3 hour ride I realized that time, my arthritic joints and the weight of the Rocket had intersected and I need a lighter motorcycle. It bums me out but sometimes ya just have to accept the reality of the situation.
Will be posting the beast in the classifieds today. Its got a lot of performance stuff on it, with a bunch of extras and the stock parts. I would prefer to sell the whole lot at once, but am open to selling just the bike as it sits for a lesser price and sell the extras separately. Or, I could put all the stock stuff back on it and drop the price accordingly.
Hope that y'all let me keep hanging around one I am rocketless
