Took the plunge

[Cheerio915]

Well finally pulled the trigger on a 2023 Rocket 3 R Chrome edition....from the last 15 years on Harleys this thing is something else. I still have my softail Deluxe cholo and its great having two completely different rides in the stable. Here to learn more and meet some like minded individuals.

Welcome, bet the HD sees a bit of garage time for a while.

It did while I was getting the first 600 miles on, and then when it went in for first service and options, I rode the HD and it was like I had forgotten how to ride it...felt so heavy brakes were terrible...sounded awesome still but night and day difference between the two bikes. I really don't know how I rode it 90 on the interstate, its going to be more of a cruising back roads bike now.

I’ve got three V twin Indians and I still love them but when I need the big power I pull a Rocket out.

WELCOME! to our R3 Family... I too enjoy a second (and third) bike...both HD's (my V-Rod Muscle and my Brides Fat Boy). Each has it's positives but nothing compares to the power, torque and adrenaline rush of my R3T when I twist the throttle... Any photos of both bikes?? ENJOY your new Perma-Grin
