Lookin good Poseidon. Have you looked at Maxton for your suspension ? You could probably get Front and rear done for about the same price as Wilbers rears.

I totally support and look forward to people on here modifying their bikes to their own personal taste, that looks great just a shame had to be done on a limited run model......

Unbelievable. I own number 74. Been riding motorcycles since I was 17 years old. Now at 57 and still riding about 25,000 miles a year would not dream of taking a limited edition motorcycle like the ROCKET X and doing something like that. WOW.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why the good lord provided us with both chocolate and vanilla!

Best to keep in mind that as far as limited editions go Triumph's efforts are pretty piss poor. The X is simply a stock bike with a thousand dollar stripe on it. Like it or loathe it @Poseidon has made a real limited edition out of his bike.

Yes but the simple fact is I have one NO. 74. You do not. Much more than just a super paint job. If your going to modify a Rocket why not just buy a run of the mill like maybe a 2013 roadster and work with that.
