Very smart move. G'day and welcome from Canberra mate. Good to have another Aussie on board. Is your bike standard and what mods, if any, are you planning? You'll get all the advice you need on here.

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like you got a garage queen with only 6K on it. These bikes are meant to be thrashed, flogged and generally abused for a zillion miles (that's 2 zillion kilometers).

Thanks fellas, i had a tiger 1050 up until about 2 months ago and stepped over to a 011 S3, i thought the tiger could of been 2 bikes in one, which it probably is, i wasnt even looking for a cruiser but last week i went in to my dealer to pick a cheque up for my tiger which was on consignment and there was the rocket as i walked in the door, and all of a sudden i started getting ideas well that might be the second bike "piece" that the tiger couldnt deliver,also my mates have just been getting second bikes{cruisers} one got a warrior and the other got a 1100 v star so i should be able to puttt along with them now LOL with out getting bored,the rocket is standard except for the pillion seat and backrest ,



i would love to put an exhaust on her and open her up a bit but i dont want to be excessivly loud, the jardines seem to be the flavor but are they to loud

The StaineTunes are heaps better sounding and not as raucis, loud but mellow and with right tune will give a decent boost (they claim 22hp and probally true to) heaps better midrange/ topend while keeping the stanard three pipe look the outlets on the std system is 3/4 inch as opposed to 1 1/2 inch outlet on the S/Tunes
