Had a great ride on Sunday. I got to meet Doglanta from this forum and make a new friend. I had my friend Warren who also is a Rocketeer ride with us. Warren is to blame for me getting a Rocket.:D I was totally satisfied with my bike until I saw his bike and rode with him on a long trip.:eek: I...

I just came in from a ride about 150 miles 70 degrees outside, was real nice. When I got back to town, the bike died at the stoplight. Caught me off guard, it was the first time it ever did that. Started right back up, but would not idle. When I let go of the throttle the rpm's would go down...
