I have been a lurker for several years now. I have a 2007 Rocket 3 Tourer. IT has been the best bike I have ever ridden (I have ridden 10,000 + miles on this Rocket). I have over 40 years of riding and well over 25+ bikes in my days.

I look forward to reading more posts and learning about the Rocket. I feel like I am on an island now that the Boise dealership has dropped the Line. Now the nearest dealer is 500 miles away!! But, I still will always ride a Rocket!!!

This is the You tube link I Have from last week’s ride. It was my first youtube post and I need to work on sound…. But if you ever wondered what it is like to go over 100mph on twisty roads….take a look…

Thanks

welcome to the site and sorry to hear you don't have a dealer nearby. If you need parts, I've found that Gengras Triumph is very fair with prices and shipping with fast turn around.

Nice scenery and a decent road,
what's not to like?
Wonder why your '07 has the two tone gauges and mine are solid black?
I enjoyed the video, thanks for posting it.
Welcome to the site and glad you decided to finally join in.
Don't be bashful now,

Nice ride,,,, just one question, who is holding the camera?
i see the helmet moving so it is not a helmet cam, are you riding with one hand and holding the camera with the other?/
Welcome from Tulsa !!!

Second Post and Pictures..maybe

I am attempting to post a few pictures… But, my 2007 Rocket has added items: only cosmetic. I have kept the engine and pipe stock because I have MORE than enough power and I like the sound at speed. Since I live in Idaho, our season is usually 6 months at best. I average about 6,000 miles a year with day trips of 200 to 400 miles at a time. Like all of you have experienced, This bike does draw a crowd when it is stopped.
This is really a great web site for everything ROCKET…..
BTW: The You tube link video was taken by my GF (Michelle )… That is her in the pictures….

I will be posting another Youtube soon on my License plate and light replacements. I am working on the wiring now…
If you ever find yourself in By Boise, I can send you a few roads that Have little travel and even less enforcement… For only Safe and Sane fun….

welcome to the forum. our little island only has twisty roads , its not long enough for straight ones . looks like good riding territory but i'd never risk riding as far as you on the wrong side

Welcome from Kentucky where the Mountains Kiss the Bluegrass and you have the twin to my bike 07 classic tour. PS. A good windscreen over that microphone will help a lot. But I did love the video.
