Cool story...
While visiting
@smokit2 in Colorado, I realized I wasn't going to make it home on my front tire. Ordered up a nice 140 Avon Cobra and rode over to Grand Junction on the way home to have it installed. A 60-ish guy on a Harley came in to have tires done also, and we chatted while waiting.
He asked me what I was riding, and when I told him, he pointed out a trade-in Electra-FLXTYDRWQMLP-something or other. I just said, "No", and he was genuinely surprised. Ok, it had a pretty blue and silver paint job, but I told him there is no bike after the Rocket.
When my tire was done, he came out to look at the bike and I think it was then when he realized just what I was talking about. "2300 ccs, really?" I said, "I told you there was no upgrading from this". The look on his face was priceless.
Btw, here's my tire before the switch...
