I just got my new used Rockster on Saturday. (I have been lurking on this board for a while). I bought the Rock from a guy on the board. It's a sweet, sweet bike. I love the stability on the slab and the cornering ability on twisty roads. The torque to pull away from butt crevice tailgaters, even in sixth gear is amazing.

The rough stuff: Re-learning parking-lot slow handling skills. Smoothly applying the brakes because of the servo-assist..

I rode it from Northern VA to Northern NJ on Saturday and the rest of the way to my home in CT very early Monday morning. It's a good long distance bike.

Looks great and welcome to the board. Yes, the servo assist brakes require finesse, but they'll save your bacon when you need them most... Enjoy your sweet ride!
