Thrilled and terrified!

Sorry, I didn't realize you were not a bro. That's ok we need more sisters in the wind. I'm impressed that such a small woman is willing to tame such a big bike . Keep the shiny side up.

I didn't realise you were a woman either , maybe a good idea to mention that in the future anyway what I suggested still stands (except maybe get a little help with swapping the shocks over) like Steel said .. good onya for having the (female equivalent of balls) to give the Rocket a go

Definitely decided to have my stock seat shaved a bit, thanks for warning me the corbins are a little wider, and as for getting more ladies out of cages and onto two wheels, I've got three female friends that are learning to ride on my Yamaha Virago 500 right now. I think it's because they feel less threatened by "the death traps" since they see a girl at least four inches shorter than they are with three bikes. Heck, I don't even own a car, I live in a desert where it is always riding weather. Now I'm rambling because I'm approaching the awake for twenty hours mark. time for or

I never realised that you were a lady either, although "On two wheels in high heels" should have given me a clue - but being California. . .

 

[RanDom_Chipmunk]

Yeah... Even in free and easy Cali, biker culture doesn't really make allowances for men to wear high heels on a motorcycle. Too bad, cause that would make finding platform heel boots with a steel shank and reinforced toes so much easier... *wistful face*

They are around, Leatherup.com has a few with the new wondo-leg-extenders.

Don't worry RC I assumed you were a Lady right from the get go

 

[RanDom_Chipmunk]

Thanks mr hunt, I would have assumed that the shortest riders around her would be female, but there seems to be far fewer gals then guys hereabouts. Makes sense, though. The rocket is a fairly masculine bike in many ways.

 

[mr hunt]

yeah....boys like to over-compensate, ergo Rocket is born.... and the counter-example: Harley's are girls bikes and plenty of blokes ride them
