    :eek: It’s true :eek:
    I went for a test ride this morning and have done a deal with my Rocket traded in :eek:
    Put simply I’ve not enjoyed the rocket as much as I thought I would :confused:
    Perhaps I bit off more than I could chew:(
    I stand by everything I said about it when I first got it but in some ways that’s part of the problem :(
    It’s a Feckin brilliant but mental bike :imp:
    I’ll readily admit that it scares me o_O
    and I’m always worried about getting into trouble with it one way or the other :confused:
    I thought long and hard about this as I wanted it SO much :heart_eyes:
    But I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t think I can enjoy it when I’m constantly worried about out braking myself due to its weight or getting into trouble with it’s blistering performance :skull:
    Fantastic bike just not for me :confused:
    Never mind I’ll console myself in the thought that I’ve done the right thing for me :)

    Well you’ve got to be happy Dilli, there’s no point in keeping it if you’re not and not enjoying it.
    Hope whatever you get instead will be better for you. :grinning:

    Well to say I am surprised is an understatement :dizzy: but there are times when you know something isn't for you & I guess being honest with yourself is all that's left ;), I hope it isn't because of your shoulders playing up?

    Hopefully the dealers haven't had your pants down on the deal either as you really can't have done many miles? :worried:

    I’ve lost a bit but not as much as I thought I would :)
    The shoulders are part of the problem but I just wasn’t gelling with the bike :(

    A wise person knows when to make a change. The Rocket is a great bike from all accounts, but that doesn't mean it's for everybody.

    I can't wait to see pics of your new America!!! :cool:
