Your bike before your rocket.

[TxRIIIRider]

The bike I had directly before the Rocket was an '01 Harley Road Glide. I only had it for 6 months before I decided I needed to be back on a Triumph. I had an '00 Thunderbird Sport for 5 years, 38,000 miles which I loved very much.. Awesome bike. The bike I got my license on 25 years ago?.. dang! Was a Triumph 500 hard tail bob job which I loved and rode everywhere. It belonged to a shop I worked at. My first street bike was a '72 Honda CL 350 Scrambler. Very fun bike.. I've owned various Triumph 650s, and a Honda CX 500 (the ugliest bike every built, but a great bike!)

That's purty Dan, I like.....must have been one of those yammies that was only sold in Europe. What year?

When I bought my Rocket I was riding a VS 800 Intruder, a VL 1500 Intruder, and a V-strom.....I still have the 800 as a back up bike but since the Rocket never breaks down the 800 hardly sees the street anymore.

Was a 1999 model m8

Well cared for and modded to 135bhp (standard 105bhp)

Do like the drag strips mind

I've been riding a long time, so there are too many former bikes to list.

Some notable ones were:

'69 Triumph Bonneville
'71 Norton Commando
'77 Harley XLCR
'79 Honda CB750K
'93 & '96 Honda CBR900RR

There are still 7 other bikes in the garage to keep the Rocket company.

02 Bonnie

Before my R3 was a '02 Bonneville, nice bike but a bit light for the freeway.
I like the new BMW R1200 GS in 08.
