Yeah, the first thing you say to your wife when you get home is brew me some tea. What could go wrong there.

Rode it home yesterday 190 miles. Got home had a brew and went back out on it. Cant get enough of it.

Welcome from

Blimey didnt think a cup of tea could be that contaversial a certain ice breaker))

Welcome from Yorkshire. Nice bike.The new Rocket 3 is a lot smoother ride than the old one. Enjoy.

Did you get it brand spanking new? If not, was there many miles on it when you bought it?

 

[mikec]

Nice!

And yes that does look like a TFC - do they still sell those new?

And don't listen to the naysayers, everything is better after a beer.
I know this because I am a BREWer.

Thank you for the warm welcome everyone.
Im having a brew as i write this
Yes i bought it second hand 2800 miles. Compared to all the others on the net I paid a reasonable price under what it was new at any rate. The guy i bought it from was really genuine brilliant chap and had looked after it etc etc. It is just a year old.
This replaces my chopper and after 11 tears of hauling that thing round corners and requiring a petrol tanker and a spinal surgeon to follow you just in case..... this is like a rolls royce. smaller lighter and so comfortable.

Just out of interest how do you display the coolant temperature on these things. I have gone into the display set up it has a tick at the side of it thus activated but it isnt showing in any of the trays despite which style you use. A bit oif tuition would be much appreciated.

Curious, why did previous owner sell after 2800 miles? Yikes!

That model is a limited edition and was pre sold out before release. It should hold value better that the other models. Nice find.

Family commitments that was all it was a reluctant sale but lucky for me right time and right place for once in my life!!
