Nice bikes! How do you like the Rocket? I used to have a Valkyrie and thought that was a big bike until I saw the Triumph! How does it handle with that big motor?

:congrats: on the sale. I hope. :bowdown:

I came very close to buying a fire engine red, rocket three. I was good until the dealer said to get on and start it up. When I blipped the throttle, the torque made the bike lean over to one side. I said okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, I think I will pass on that one. :roflblack:

The Rocket is well.....unreal for acceleration. The bike does have some torque twist at a stop but moving there's nothing.
For a big bike the handling is very good, the Victory is better handling but the Rocket is all around more fun.

Variety is for sure the spice of life!!

I ended up going for a Kawasaki Vulcan 2000 instead. Don't know why, but I just wanted to have big. The only bike I owned that intimidated me a little. It was way to heavy for a small guy like me. It was very fast. Ate tires quickly. I kept it a year, sold it, and bought my first Spyder (08 GS, SM5).
