I've been on the forum for a few years as an '00 Thunderbird Sport rider (one awesome bike to own!), but started out the New Year with an '05 Rocket III, which I am now addicted to.

I have the Triumph fly screen, Triumph tank bra, Corbin rumble seat, and soon to have Corbin beetle bags. After I get that all together, I'm planning on the D&D mufflers

I've been riding for 25 years or so. My first bike was a Kawasaki KE175 and my first street legal bike was a Honda CL 350 (similar to the new Scrambler). I got my license on a Triumph 500 chopper, which led me to the way of Triumph. Had several other bikes through the years, Honda CX 500 ( nice bike if it wasn't so ugly! ), Honda CB 750s, a '66 Bonneville chopper, etc.
I worked at a bike shop as a teenager and pretty much got to take a ride on anything that was made at the time..

The closest bike I can think of relating to my experience with the Rocket, is when I got to ride a 900cc Suzuki GT750. When that 2-stroke hit the right RPMs, you'd better be hanging on tight!
