I see you had the Cobra 6 into 6 exhaust. Great sounding pipes! When my motorcycle mechanic was working on mine, his neighbor heard it running and came over and asked "Are you working on a car?"

Yes your right about the great sound but the the pipes were a Two Brothers Racing set I imported to Scotland . Burned a big hole in my wallet for them. I sold the bike to a mate to buy my first Rocket in 2005.

Bought a ‘22GT in June last year with 780 miles on it. Just took it in for the 20k service (ouch.) 19,870 miles. The Vandemon pipes, Penner tune & dyno truly unleashed the beast!

I feel like a youngun. First Rocket was a 2013 I bought in 2019, ridden 20k (wished it was more), and sold in 2024 to them buy a 2023 R3GT.
