Bought my Rocket 16 years ago today and still running strong 80000 miles later . Toured the US twice an Been all over Europe. Was wondering how long some of the long time members have owned their bikes.
 
I had a BMW R1200RT and upgraded to a 2008 Rocket III classic in 2017. Then a 2011 Roadster for the ABS. Rebuilt that with Lush components for a raging machine and then bought a 2020 RT (red- it's always faster ;-) in early 2022. I got a sweet deal on that with less than 150 miles on it (people often buy these and are afraid of them and want to sell). Since then I have just hit 30,000 miles on the last bike.
 
I bought my used 05 Rocket in 2010 and had it 3 years. Had some problems with it and got so mad at it I bought a new 2014 Rocket. After a Dyno on my 14 I really enjoyed it. I had it up until I bought the Rocket 2020 GT new. I still miss my 14 Rocket and wish I would have kept it along with my 2020 but as much as I ride now it's not practical My ex-girlfriends and current love. 05, 14 and 2020.
