I entered my bike in Sydneys biggest Bike Show at bankstown put on by Highway 61 outlaws and put it on the dyno challenge about 10 bikes in.The best Harley a 95 cu ins supercharged pulled 122.5hp but with a small band of TRIUMPH fans rooting for me my trusty steed pulled 137.5 in semi stock form (no NOS running) and still caused there computer to falter because the settings were somewhat frigged up as there biggest expectation from the US Hardley Dangerouswas well short of this figure !!!!!!!! We TRIUMPHED on the day blitzing all comers JAP, AMERICAN and EUROPEAN starters. Wait till next year with TTS supercharger and NOS tuned in (ACE Superchargers of COFFS HARBOUR have asked me if they can do first fit up of Rocketship with TTS and NOS at special reduced price)I aim to get into record books in the 200+hp zone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been told that some photos were taken by one of australias best known MAGS LIVE TO RIDE and hope to see a few shots from the last two shows i have entered bike in (and gladly caused some tongues to wag about showing of the beautiful BLACK Rocket...............................regards BRONCO50 :-D :hammer: :razz: :wink: :-D :hammer: :razz: :wink:

Sounds like you are representing well. I wonder how many new Rockets sold in AU you will be responsible for?

Way to go Bronco50. Hardly Dangerous....too funny. For this guy that don't get out much, that gave me a good chuckle. Put in 5.5 hours work on Easter Sunday so I needed a good laugh. :-D

Keep us informed about your Supercharger install and the like.

Oh, if that Aussie cycle mag features your bike or you, let us know cuz we/I like to hang with celebs. :razz:

Good stuff Bronco!!!
Now we need to rake that front end out 60> degrees and extend the gas tank (longer flatter) to make that bike really show.
