It's been a long journey to this point, but I found myself in a position to buy a used Rocket after many many years of wishing. It is everything I ever wanted and more.

No questions at the moment, really, just want to participate.

I think I've put on ... 800? Go out for an hour or two whenever I can manage it. I'm outside Chicago, planning on riding to DC this weekend for work. Just got a new rear tire, and put new pads on the rear, too. Haven't had any other troubles, although I am missing the official tool for adjusting the rear shocks, so I have to figure that one out. I think they're on four right now, the previous owner rode two up road trips a lot I guess. Oh, I think I need to top up the front brake fluid. Pads are good, I just have more lever travel than I like.
 
Welcome to the Looney bin . Everyone here likes excess, clearly lol.

Rear shocks:. They're sprung for a light rider, 4 was right for me when I was 180lbs.
