I took a rocket out on the Triumph Demo ride this Saturday. WHAT AN AWESOME BIKE!!! I got to tell you folks I want one!!! I love my Tiger but man what a sweet ride that was. So now I’m hooked and saving some cash to put one beside my Tiger. So now I’m going to troll your forum as well and pick up as much info as I can on the Rocket. :-D

After my test drive, it took me 2 weeks to sell my Bonnie and order a Rocket.

I know the feeling. On one Saturday in Aug. 04 I test rode a Rocket and the next Saturday I was trading in my beloved Cardinal Red '98 Tbird I didn't think I'd ever let go on a Cardinal Red '05 Rocket

Well - I bought mine without a test ride. Just by the way it sat, I knew it would fit me. And by what I had read, I knew that it was a beast that handled with the best of them. Not one single regret!

Like TallRocket and several others I didn't need a test ride.Before seeing one I had to have it on a single description alone.The numbers were so outrageous that I was ready to put a deposit on the 1st one that came in.That wasn't to be but got mine 2yrs later and been smilin ever since. :-D
