Hi all

Does anybody own or has owned a Rocket 3?

If so what are they like to live with?
Any problems?

Regards

GSGus:cool:
 
I ride a Newish Rocket 3 trike regularly:augie
I had an original BSA Rocket 3 in the 70's but it was unreliable and forever breaking down, bit like a modern day 1200:augie
Sold it at a descent profit to a bloke who has still got it, he rebuilt it over 7 years:eek: virtually re-engineering it...
Now it runs properly:D
the Modern one I love whether in Trike or Bike form, sheer Brute torque and power.

I will not have one because my license would soon disappear:augie

In trike form I saw 5600 revs on A30.
4000 revs = 100mph:eek::eek::eek:
It did not feel anywhere near that fast,
120 mph on my FJ1100 seems faster than the Rocket even with the FJ's fairing:nenau
any excuse for a pic:D:D

240 kph = 150 mph :D
