Welcome Bloke
Saturday went for a ride with 12 other rockets, and 2 have gone the dark side (Use car Tyre) As a personal choice I wouldn't do it myself but believe me many do and prefer the car tyre for a variety of reason's. I can tell you one thing for sure both of the rockets concerned had no trouble handling the hinterland, and I assure you we were travelling at quite a good pace.
Yes one reason is the added mileage and cost savings, but several captains say they have improved handling and over all performance. You'll find a wealth of knowledge on this forum from professional mechanics, auto electricians, and not to mention some blokes who not only know about rockets than triumph, quite simply it's their passion.
The best part every member here is not just willing to share their knowledge, but in most cases if they live nearby will actually physically help you with what you rocket may need, from services, tunes to actual repair.
Whilst we all have different opinions, likes, dislikes, just as much as our rockets are different. Yes you too have your own opinion as well but bare in mind how you come across may affect the rewards you may get from this forum. My advice get to know a few captains, read a few threads that you find of interest, make informed comments, cast informed opinions, and you will be welcomed with open arms.
