Bienvenue, Welcome from Montreal QC Canada.

Welcome from a newbie in Bristol. Stunning bike mate, certainly didn't see that one for sale when I was looking, was a supercharged one at a dealer for approx 7K and that was there for ages before it sold.
How are you finding the handling after getting off a Busa? mine scares the S**T out of me and really detracts from what I would imagine would be a fun ride if it didn't have a mind of it's own!

Really looking for someone close to me to take a ride and see if it's me or the bike, this was meant to be some late summer cheap fun so going down the new tyres, shocks , front springs, bearings etc is a bit of a non starter for me at the moment as I already have two bikes in piles of bits........................

Hi, I have a goldwing as well. Anything after that is easier to ride. This rocket is fine handling wise, but I'm having problems with the throttle at tickover to about 1500rpm. have ordered a new primary TPS and will fit that first. It would be great to meet up and compare with another SC Rocket. Is yours TTS? Is your engine warning light on all the time? Mine had the MAP sensor and secondary throttle stepper motor disconnected when fitted and remapped. Do you ever get up towards my way (Mansfield). Private message me on face book:

Sorry didn't mean to mislead you, I just have a standard 04 rocket, would love a Supercharged beast but the way mine handles at the moment I don't think it will be around for too long...................shame as I love the looks and grunt just not the way it feels in the bends.

put yourself some hyperpro springs up front, and some progressive 440,s on the rear,and as if by magic,100 times better.good luck.
