.060 Over
since riding a rocket 3 when they first came out, i've been wanting to buy one. i finally found one about 180 miles away, my 08 classic. i got it from a 69 year old guy who was afraid of it and sold it to me so he could get a goldwing. 3,000 miles and in absolute showroom condition. it romps every bit as strong as the first one i rode when they were introduced to the us dealers. i plan on riding it stock for a while till i get comfortable with it, and then of course, let the mods begin. after buying it i rode it home in the rain, uggh, but it's now home. i rode my honda 250cc scooter up to get the rocket III, what a difference. get off of a tiny scooter to get on this monster, yeow corndoggies. fast forward to when i got home with it. i pull it into my shop and park it next to my hot rodded 08 harley streetgide. just for laughs i sat on my streetglide after getting my rocket, and my streetglide felt so much smaller than it used to. yes it's a big bike, but compared to my rocket, the streetglide feels like an old 70's honda 750. i've been looking for reasons to go out for a ride on my rocket III. seems like everywhere i go, i get comments while getting gas, at the grocery store, etc. living in rural oklahoma, my rocket is a very unique bike. i'm impressed with everything about it. there i had my opportunity to express my contentment on a great purchase. the guys here in the forum seem really nice, and it seems like a great source for information. whoever it was who set up this forum, thanks from me, another new guy.
