Hi friends, just a bit about myself , got back home last week after 12 months in Iraq, i was working for a US K9 company that supplied dog teams to the US Mil , anyway was home at xmas for 3 weeks and went out and bought myself an 06 Limited Edition Rocket , Carnelious ( spelling ) blue with Tribal graphics , unfortunately i only got to put 180klms on her before i headed back to Iraq to finish my contract. Have had plenty of fun over the past week though riding her and i put in a Scorpion bike alarm , anyway im over the moon with this bike , its got everything i require and more , thanks for reading , oh yeah any other R3 owners in South East Qld on here ? Would love to tag along for a weekend ride if there are any happening,
Sean

G'day Wrecka,

I live in Coolum Beach, and there are a few other Rocket owners who get together on weekends up this way. I work overseas on a 6 week on 4 week off rotation, so get a bit of riding in when home. In Africa at the moment and home in early April. Maybe we can hook up then for a ride along with a few of the other lads, if they dont meet up with you sooner.

Cheers, Bill

Hey Wrecka...

When I get home tonight I'll do a "How to post pics" primer. Pictures are always a goofy deal on every forum it seems, and there are many different ways to do it. We have a pretty decent picture package on this one and its fairly easy to use... I'll probably put it in the "Bearclaw"....

Triumphs, but no Rocket just now.
An 8 year smidgen!! Nice colour. I recently sold my TORS and old stock pipes to a guy who'd bought one in that colour and was in the process of rebuilding it. Not hugely damaged apparently, but he'd bought it as a repairable write-off. He was from Qld originally and was going to (have to) get it registered up there. Just wondering, did you keep track of what happened to this one.....?
