I'm new to the forum. I purchased a 2014 Roadster after selling my Triumph bobber. I've wanted a rocket since 2005 and I finally gave in. I'm glad I did. The rocket is a great bike with all the power I need (for the next couple weeks anyway). I've been lurking on this forum for a few weeks and can see there is an outstanding knowledge pool here. Hopefully, I can add to it someday.
I live in Southern California, specifically Castaic. I used to live in your neck of the woods. I was stationed at PSNS in Bremerton during my days in the Marine Corps. I also ported in Cairns, Aus while on deployment. Just a shot out to the plethra of Aussies on here. Spent a day in a drinking in an Aborigine bar...time of my life.
