It is obvious from the responses here, including mine that most R3 Riders are, shall I say "further down the road" but given that I was always told by my dear old dad that with age comes knowledge and experience it is only reasonable that we would own and ride the best bike in the world, just didnt think it would take this long for me to realise it
 
My youngest son, now 26, brought home the first rocket to this house, 4 years ago...took me 18 months of "borrowing" his bike to get my own. soooo he was 22 when he Captioned UP! I'm just glad that he doesn't exhibit "throttle twist itis" near as bad as his father!!! I laugh when he tells me to GrowUp....I just remind him that i'm in my 2nd childhood
 

I believe there is a right of passage to a rocket, much like anything that is at the top of its field you need to have experienced the stepping stones to really appreciate the end, that said nothing wrong with your son buying it and you riding it
