Hi all
I was going to trade in my S3 to get a 2013 Rocket but have decided to bite the bullet and keep the S3 and go for the Rocket too.
I have a test ride in York tomorrow so wish me luck.

I'm sure the Rocket will be different, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum from Ohio. I waited until I could afford the R3R as a second bike in the stable too. I bought mine without even taking one for a ride. It fit just right when I sat on it and I knew that torque would not be an issue!

When I was asked why I bought a Rocket the answer was simple. I'd ridden one.

Welcome.

Nice! You'll enjoy the ride!! It is night and day going back and forth though...Every time I ride the wife's S3R it feels so light, I have to be careful not to throw it around too much!
