Wow! Well I'm glad you are ok; the bike grenading didn't result in any accident.
Looks like you wasted no time getting a new bike, congrats and best of luck with your new ride.

I see by your picture you are getting a Kawasaki. It will probably get better gas mileage.
Too bad about the Rocket though. How much mileage did you put on it?

Only had 23K on her Quotes for getting it fixed were silly money The guy that bought it is a bit of a spanner monkey and reckons he can do the job..Good luck to him
Still getting a Kawasaki..but the guy I was buying off hasn't returned calls or texts Then I got a message from the seller of one that I liked even more, offering it at a better price- I took his hand off

It has very short pipes. It's going to be loud. Better get some earplugs.
