Well this weekend I went to the long beach MC show to look for a second and maybe third bike. My wife is in love with the speed master for her and the Yamaha Road liner for us to go together on. IMO it was the best looking cruiser there and its a big bike I am 6'5"& 300 so its important to me, while my rocket is a great bike and would not get rid of it. I think I will by a road liner to cruise with the wife and I. by the way the Suzuki m109 is ugly in person. while the rocket is very cool I think its more of a one man bike :-D
I guess if you've got the cash to splash, you could have a different bike for every day of the week but wouldn't it be cheaper to go out and buy the bits to make the Rocket the best darn two-up mile eater since the invention of the jumbo jet.

Go buy a set of Russel Day-Long seats, fit a backrest, Rivco pass boards, Triumph driver boards, Beetle bags, special screen with extra height and suspend it all with a set of Progressive 440's and you'll have a dam good set up and save a bundle of cash to boot.

Doesn't matter what you buy these days, you always wind up spending some extra good hard earned mullah to make it just how you want it to be... so why not just do it to the Rocket and be done with it! On the other hand, if you must have another bike in the shed just do it. What the heck, every little purchase helps with the national economy! Just my two bobs worth!
