Daytona 2008

Just got back from Daytona,spent four days there checking out all the bikes and enjoying the great weather. Alot of bikers showed up this year alot more than the past couple of years. Triumph was over by the race track giving demo rides, The new 2008 Rocket seemed to be a big hit with the HD riders,the lines for test riding it were long and steady..Took some pictures that i'll share with you..

Also stopped in at the Triumph dealer at Bruce Rossmeyers location,the sales rep told me a guy just traded his 06 Rocket for the 08 model.I'll wait till the jury comes in with a verdict.It is a better looking bike in person...??

If I qualify as a member of the jury - please count my vote as yes - I bought an 08 Touring in January as my first ride since 1991 [she called to me from the showroom floor] and candidly I almost obsess about riding her - only regret so far is not enough time to ride.....

Please explain this 'enough' thing. Seems an imaginary concept.
