Looking at an 05

[Malcy]

I've said it before, low mileage on an older one could just mean it hasn't needed any of the upgrades yet. One that's been ridden a bit more likely to have had everything done. Not sure what the issues were with the '06s, though, so maybe low mileage is actually best. Important to check on the history of whichever one you get. Blue tribal is nice and even better because it's not boring old, common as muck, black.

Or some kind of pink trying to be red...

Okay to settle all arguments here is a scientific study I had done about eight years ago, I first posted this study on the .com site then the .net site so here it is again.
The old members know that this is the truth the new members will probably not believe it until they try and run up against the famous Red Rockets .

um did you draw that with your feet

To be on the safe side of what you are offering, add $2000 in case you have to foot the bill for having the upgrade kit installed. Well worth it IMO.

PS Since the upgrade kit, I like the way my 06 Standard shifts over the 2011 R3R! Much easier and solid.

Well the dealer was supposed to call me Saturday after exchanging several emails and phone calls (they're 4 hours away from me) and never did. I don't chase people down to give them my money. So I'll probably just hang on to my Dyna Low Rider for this year and wait til I can afford what drew me to the Rocket line, the roadster.

Hello Badlionsfan and welcome from VA. Good luck with any of them you decided on but don't wait too long, ok? BTW, where are you located?

 

[Badlionsfan]

I'm in Cuyahoga Falls Ohio, just north of Akron. That blue bike is in Charleston WV.

If I don't get one this year it'll be next year for sure.

What about this one? It's an 06 with the fancy (and I heard fastest) tribal pattern. It's the same money as the 05 and has less than 5000 miles vs 38000+ miles.

Does anyone know if this is the stock or TORS exhaust?

Here's a better pic

Looks like stock to me. Tors are a little shorter.

That is not true here in the States, if there is a recall they will fix it even at 9 years old, they did one on my 05 just last month, i didn't even know about it until they told me

what recall was that ?
