I purchased a new 2009 Classic, Pacific Blue and Aluminum, a couple of weeks ago. Believe it or not we are experiencing the coldest and rainiest winter I can remember. I sold my 2007 America. I loved it but it was "beating up my girlfriend and I". I go over 300 lbs. Looking forward to riding soon. I know the rocket will be fun.
 

Welcome from Central Pennsylvania. As a Redsox Fan, I will attempt not to find your name offensive!
 
Welcome to the site. I traded my America for the Rocket as well. Great bike the America, but for two up travel....not so much.
 
Welcome to the site from Joisey, yankee. Enjoy the ride!
 
I also sold my america(07 blue/white)and moved up to the Rocket 3 Touring..My reason was more stability on the slab..tired of being blown arround..Absolutely love my Rocket especially 2 up..welcome to the site..lots of good guys/gals with lots of info to help!!
 
along came the spyder

Based on your seat...doesn't look like you are doing too much two up travel now!
Since my wife got her a Can Am Spyder we usually just ride two up on the long trips like the one coming up in June to Yellowstone. I probably ride my Speed Four more than I do the Rocket. Lately not doing much riding at all...to cold for me. Unlike yourself, I'm a puss with the cold weather. After reading about some of your rides, I've come to the conclusion that you must have the circulatory system of a Polar Bear.
 
Welcome from Afghanistan, enjoy the new ride.

Given the choice of putting her away for the winter and riding in some cold weather, I'm riding! You get used to it and the Gerbings don't hurt either!
