    I've had mine for 11 years. It's been a great bike, I never get sick of it. I've ridden a few other big cruisers and they just don't come close in any area. Excellent bike for long trips. The big tyres soak up the ripples. The engine just gives unlimited torque . They are not so great in heavy stop/start traffic. They need to be stretching their legs on a lonely highway.

    I have an 06 Rocket here in New Zealand. Love the bike and I too sometimes hit the limiter in first.
    The trick is to lift it into 2nd gear and let the clutch out before removing your foot of the gear lever.
    It's just a fun bike to ride and own.

    • @Darkvisor
      @Darkvisor  4 года назад +1

      This was my first and only time riding it in the video so it was hard to know in advance when to shift before limiter comes on, every bike is different. =)
      And yes... so much fun to ride it. Very nice motorcycle and power. Thanks for watching my video! =)

    As an owner, what I really like is how it glides along at 140kph. The big tyres give it an armchair ride but remains solidly planted like its glued to the road. I don't enjoy riding it in traffic. It needs a bit of elbow room and the engine doesn't like slow traffic.

    I've owned an 08 since almost new. You shouldn't be hitting the rev limiter if you want a fast take off. Change gears about 3500 and stay in the torque curve. At 5000 RPM. they have nothing left. The 2nd gear could have problem from the previous owners abusing it.
