My friends and I road right past it (on 95) in 2006 on the way to Cambridge, ID.

Rocket III To Dos for Spring 2012

I’m trying to keep the expeditures to a minimum, but so far I’ve accumulated the following:

• License plate relocation bracket
• Standard Rocket III Classic shifter
• Kuryakyn grips
• Breakaway cruise control (not pictured)
• Clear turn signal lenses
• Relay kit for the headlights that will help save my ignition switch
• Tank pad and knee pads (not pictured)

I already had the grips and cruise control that I had purchased for Bollox.

In addition, I’ve ordered up a new set of tires, Bridgestones:

• Exedra Max rear 240/55-16
• G701 front 150/80-17

The front is only rated to 130 mph but I think I’ll be okay.

Lastly, as soon as the weather cooperates, I’m going to try out the 14×14″ Windvest, currently on Reboot, and see if it provides enough protection from the wind. If not I will be scouring ebay for a 16×16″ version. That’s likely to be the end of my expenditures on any of my motorcycles this year.
