hello

Welcome Arms!
You have found the BEST motorcycle forum in America; so, partake in essence of Rocket III and enjoy.
From what I have read around here in the past year and a half, the 08 is a good model year. Look into the ignition bypass.
Many have upgraded rear shocks, added performance by replacing mufflers, removing air filters and putting in a good tune or getting a dyno.
Take your time taming the beast and enjoy the ride!
 
G'day from another one of the Aussies that hang around this seedy joint.
 
Welcome from Northern Ontario. Congrats on the new to you Rocket. Have fun and ride safe.
