I am sick, I think

I too wanted more comfort from my Rocket. I purchased my bike used and it already had the Corbin fairing and bags. I added a Corbin seat with back rest, highway pegs, handle bar risers, throttle lock, Triumph Touring rear shocks and tunes. I am going to try to add electronic cruz and replace the front springs this winter. I have also added a Tuneboy and a PC III to go with the car tire to help put it to the ground. I have went to the 12" windshield that keeps the wind buffeting down.
I think I have the ultimate power cruiser that I can scoot around town with or hit the highway, turn the tunes up, kick my heels up and lean back and cruz. To top it off I have less than 12,500 invested.

Risers, backrest, large clearview screen, lowers, heated cobin dual tour seat, heated grips, and baker air wings turned my standard r3 into a rolling lounge chair. Out of those though, the risers, corbin seat, shield, and lowers are the top 4 for comfort.

Here is what I use for a backrest, and you get more storage space:

At least the engine looks like actually belongs in that bike.

That's a nice look.
 
Nice looking mochine Busajack. Must have been a bug I caught or the food was laced with hallucinogens because tonight I took a ride and I just can not get rid of that horsepower and torque. When I bought it I said that this would probably be the last bike I ever buy so spend I shall untill I get it right.

I think it would be a hoot to ride into Sturgis with ya next year T Evans. Side by side, what do you think?





Got the tall windshield, highway pegs, ordered the Kaoko throttle lock two months ago and it is still on back order, must get the Utopia back rest after risers go on.

Thank you HF. They're no Rockets but as I get older I'am liking lighter bikes and this one only weights about 650 Lbs. 70 Lbs lighter than the Raider.

Riding that Thruxton was great but I looked like a Rhino riding a moped at 240 pounds. The Rocket makes me look smaller like black leotards on a big chick in WalMart. I'm not judgin', I'm just sayin'...................
 
I think my bike is attracted to STB and Rainman's bikes. They keep showing up in the same place and we live in different states.
