Re: Soon a new Rockster owner!

Picked it up this weekend. Only put about 25 miles on so far, but I love it. The telever, shaft drive, boxer, servo/ABS, stupid turn signals... all will take some getting used to, but it's great!

Canadian build differences?

The Rockster I am looking at owning soon is a canadian bike originally. Legally (So I'm told) imported and licensed in US by the first owner. Other than the obvious Kilometer/Mile differences, are there any build differences? *edit to add: This one is a 2003, but it's a dual spark. I understand that...

Re: Soon a new Rockster owner!

Pics will be forthcoming! A few weeks until we make the trade. I am already working on some modifications... mostly visual at first (necessitated by the small amount of cosmetic damge on the bike).

Soon a new Rockster owner!

Hello everyone! Just wanted to introdruce myself. Will be soon trading my Aprilia Caponord for a 2003 Rockster. Great deal for both of us, as I want something more "fun" and he wants to get back into adventure bikes. Looks like a great forum, I look forwarding to gleaning and contributing!

Re: Converting MPH to KMH dial

First Post!

...do the bicycle speedometers that CRazyCam mentioned calculate speeds high enough? I don't see many Armstrongs pedaling around at 80 mph :p
