| Posted : 31 Mar 2016 - 18:27 Post title : Re: rocket 3 (Re: Tal) | | I do love Rockets but they bring the wrong side of me out - I end up racing around too much (coz they go round corners surprisingly well) the reason I bought a Storm was to slow down a bit before I lose my license! I've got away with riding like a loon for 30+ years with only 3 penalty points to show for it. But traffic conditions are getting worse and worse in increasingly over-populated blighty and the police/government attitude to speeding is hardening as they scratch around to fill the void in the budget.

I road Easter Sunday afternoon. back roads all to myself. know all to well of the increasing traffic, its like chess pieces on the highways. don't like to use the blind spot from memory. small mirrors hamper visibility.

Really can't see the point in that ... so glad I never hankered after machines like it. I'm sure that someone put there heart and soul into it and it means a lot to them but I'd rather have a proper bike.

| Posted : 13 Jun 2016 - 08:33 Post title : Re: rocket 3 (Re: Swagger) | | I'm with you all the way there Tony...my mate had a "Big Dog" chopper which was certainly a nice bike to look at, but not suited to riding with the boys as it didn't handle the corners and was really hard on his back. He sold it and bought a Victory Hammer which he loves. Not for me but he likes it.....that's why we are all different I guess....
