Newbie to the Rocket community, recently invested in a 2012 Rocket 3 Touring. Decided the B-King was too lively for my aging capabilities and that I should try to be a little more sedate, hence the move to a cruiser, never ridden a cruiser before, looking forward to long lazy trips out in the summer sunshine here in UK.

Welcome. Well you can start off sedate - but there is a bear in there that can be given more freedom.

Hello from France,

The Rocket 3 is a big mamma or a gentle bear... I guess the driver behind the steering wheel of the Mercedes CL65 trying to impress me was thinking about my R3...

Welcome! If you’re like me, you’ll start out with the most responsible of intentions. But, eventually you crank open the throttle a little, you know, just to see what all the fuss is about. Then you discover second gear. Now every time I pull out I instinctively look hard in the mirror to see if I’m about to get pulled over.

By the way, I also haven’t found a mod here I didn’t like.
