I ride mine everyday and its great but i dont have to deal with intense traffic . traffic yes but not sydney traffic . In traffic that stops and starts and generally sucks arse it can be a bit annoying on the big girl but i wouldnt trade her for anything. wouldnt mind TCs speedy as a mon-fri

I love my Rocket in traffic or anywhere else and can't think of one short coming. Of course there's other bikes I'd enjoy too but the sheer size and power of the Rocket are among its strengths. I feel safer and certainly more visible and unless you're going to start mounting footpaths or riding over cars, or like to wear frocks when you ride, a Rocket is ideal.

Going down from Illawarra to Milton on the way to the bay I did a bit of that foot path hopping getting around traffic. The heat was unbearable and I wasn't wearing afrock

As far as stop start is concerned-- great opportunity to do a burnout. ... just kidding. .....

I love burn outs but I do not need to be stopped to do one

Thats were the extra ponies come in handy !!!!!!
