  1. But seriously even if you see one in a bike shop. Take the opportunity to test ride it even if you have no intention of buying it. Mind you I did that with my Triumph Tiger and bought it 😂
  2. If you ever in PE we can talk.
  3. If you ever get the chance to "test drive" one, take it.
  4. Would be interesting to see the result against the 1098. The Rocket droos my son's crossplane R1 on a robot pull away. The admin of a Facebook Rocket owners group is a American woman. She has 2 drag bikes. A Rocket and a turbo Busa.
  5. Quite a few of them overseas. Must me a mental ride. My standard Rocket still blows me away. I can only imagine what a supercharged one must be like.
  6. MTB tyres can cost almost the same as car tyres. Makes no sense given the amount of material used. Suppose it's a bit like woman that pay more for a G string panty than a normal one 😂😁😂
  7. Clever lad. He has moves 😂
  8. https://www.chilledsquirrel.com/ And they in Cape Town
  9. Somewhere out there a village is feeling deprived.
  10. You must be a real ball of fun at a braai.
  11. Can I be second in line please? I cannot afford to buy a new tyre everytime I plug it. Hell sometimes I battle to afford a new tyre because the old one is finished.
  12. If this is as you claim "I messed up" I sure would hate to see what happens when you "f@#kup"
  13. I have given up trying this on the Rocket 😂😅😁
  14. For me in Port Elizabeth I am still managing on a 1x. Using a 36 upfront and a 11-46 at the back. Some hills I do battle a bit but have not had to walk in a longtime.
  15. And any thoughts on this product? https://senbono.co.za/Magene-L508-Radar-Tail-Light-p480331448
  16. Sometimes I feel like this
  17. Sounds like a interesting story.
  18. Good point and something to remember.
  19. Got to agree about being aware. I ride with a cycling buddy and if we come across "pedestrians" off the beaten path, then I will always have a quick glance over my shoulder when we pass them. One can never be to complacent. A while ago we ended up taking a wrong turn and popped out on the very edge of the Walmer location on a Saturday afternoon. We rode through there as if we where doing a sprint finish with a very elevated heart rate.
  20. I have thought about a telescopic baton. Problem is they normally rattle and that would drive me nuts.
  21. By paying your own way you get to stay friends and no need to look for new buddies 🙂
  22. Each person pays their own way.
  23. I could mostly do this when I had my Harley. The engine braking is really good. Would battle to do it with the Rocket.
  24. Same here. I have never locked up the back wheel and ripped up a trail.
  25. That's what she said 🤭😉🤣😂
