    I have my Rocket 3 (2023) now for a month. I've done about 550 km with it. I did a lot of cosmetic changes as well as a remap (TuneEcu). It is a "big" and "heavy" bike; however it looks strangely too long... the whole 2.5 m of it. My question to other owners is: How do you find the Rocket in general? Regards!

    I'm in my 70ties now - lost so much muscle power and weight... if I can ride this thing, surely you can. It just looks intimidating... Try one!

    @Old Biker:
    I love my Rocket 3 R Storm 2025! :heart_eyes: I did nearly 16.000 kilometres with it in the last 6 months. I am using it for "fun rides" and long weekend rides up to five days in many parts of Europe. You can not compare it to any other bike on the market, or even on earth! :p
    I am using a BMW 1250 RS (2023) for my long distance rides (more than 5 days). It is cool and also a "big" bike, but my Rocket is always above it! ;)

    @Old Biker Sorry i put my big foot in it again. But it heartens me you say survivor. And yes she made a good choice for now. Do give your good Lady all my sincere wishes for a great recovery and then back to her bike. God Bless you Both.
