I took my girlfriend for about a 75 Mile ride last night she said she likes it. She said it was more comfortable than the Rocket 3. I thought the rock it was very comfortable for me. So I told her she needs a ride more to get used to it because we're going to take it to Niagara next year. I'll be ready for my first service tomorrow.

My girl went 700 miles last Sunday on mine. And didn't biotch!  :D

Rode again Sunday and couldn't get my girlfriend off of mine. I have some catching up to do to get to 700 though.

my girlfriend is pretty happy driving at 110 on the Connie. I did 1000 miles on a K16GTL this weekend with her on the back, and her limit stayed at 90 mph. She said that in the Kawa she is pretty much on my wind shadow, while the BMW seats me much lower and her much higher. And I have to agree.

    Rockeman,  you live near Cumberland, MD?  Anticipating a possible Connie purchase if the deal goes right.  Been spending a bunch of riding time in New York state.   There is great riding there.  I bet you have some great roads near you also.
Have fun.

Yes I do.  I do a lot of work in Cumberland. A lot of great roads around here. route 50 through West Virginia is probably 1 of my best.

Excellent riding in that neck of the woods.   I lived in the Hagerstown area for about 12 years before I moved back into VA.

Well what do you know....I'm right on the PA/MD border off I-81 in Greencastle. I was just out running the other day on rt 9 and 522 through Berkeley Springs looking for some nice side roads to ride on. Funny....Last yr or so I remember seeing some guy on a rocket somewhere pass me when I was in my truck thinking.....Now that's a bike I don't see too often. I actually was the only time I've ever seen one off he showroom...Wonder if our paths crossed.

Hi Jimmy,
