This past weekend I took my 05 Red Rocket up to the Tail of the Dragon and Cherohala Skyway for a get to know ride (get to know your bike) ride. I have only had my Rocket two weeks and wanted to find out our compatibly. Their were bikes ever where and not one Rocket 3. The feed back from just about every stop surprised me (and filled me with pride). One of the reasons I wanted the Rocket 3 was that ti was not another Harley Clone (or Harley). I feel that by choosing the Triumph Rocket 3 states ones individuality and noncomformist personality. After all who wants to be like every one else.
