    Just bought the 2022 Rocket 3 R. Coming from an Aprilia Tuono. Even after a short ownership I can say that thRocket is great in curves, you just need to have your technique right - turn your head, start out wide, buffer the apex and aim to finish in tight. The peg clearance is fine, I haven't scrapped them yet, so there is enough room for spirited curve street riding on the R model. I admit I was worried about the transition but my concerns quickly evaporated. It is heavier, but you don't feel the weight while riding. The low centre of mass is the physics defying key. The brakes are linked and the fronts have immense stopping power, while the gear box has a nice positive feel between changes with a positive click up or down - more so than my previous bike - in fact most bikes I have ridden. The bike is awesome. edit: typo's

    Thoroughly enjoyed that Chopsie - love a bit of old fashioned vloggage me.....and what a bike to do it on eh? That 100K is tantalisingly close, but please don't thnik the pressure will then be off.....in my experience it gets harder the longer you do this lark....but what a great lark it is and as a retirement "job" I can only thoroughly recommend it.......as I can fasting if you want to lose some weight...but as you said, it has to be a way of life thing to keep the extra pounds off......

    I personally really enjoy these rambling less focused vids Chops as they definitely have their place. TMF has done a few as well & for me it's just nice to get to know you guys a little better. You should consider doing them once a month as a regular fixture. I also think the vids you do with Greg & womble are entertaining too so you could have a natter with them from time to time as well. That reminds me, we need an update on Greg's GSXR. : )

    • @windyrun7979
      @windyrun7979 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree a vid or two with a Greg GXSR update and Womble ramblings (does he still have his Tuono?) would be great. Also would appreciate a vid on the new MT 10
      Regarding keeping weight off its definitely a lifestyle change but I also have found weight is lost in the kitchen and not at the gym. It also helps to only have 2 meals - a late lunch and a regular dinner and nothing (food) in between or after dinner. This is how I lived when I was a kid and much thinner than now. Seems its an easy way of fasting .

    I've got the old Rocket III Roadster. I recently rode the new one and it's everything the old one should've been. Ditch the retro looks, more power, decent ground clearance, fab brakes, traction control. I absolutely loved it.
    Been there, done that with the diet and subsequent weight gain. Now I've changed what I eat and am happy with it. Something I can stick to - mostly.
    Nice video Chopsy - thanks.

    My dad recently brought a rocket 3 and what a bike. We’re off out today in the twisty’s and I’m on a 701 , I was very surprised how nibble that triumph is and the bikes seem to play well together.

    I got up to 13 stone 7 pounds, but managed to get back down to 12 and a half which is my healthy weight. I agree totally that its a lifestyle change - you have to change what you eat and when you eat. Summer is a good time to enjoy healthy salads. Don't eat in between meals or have a late night supper and you're golden.

  • @SeldarionRides
    @SeldarionRides 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I totally get what you're saying about dieting. Part of the trouble with some diets is you lose a lot of muscle mass along with the fat so when you're done dieting, a lot of your calorie burning potential that comes from muscle is greatly reduced and then it's much easier to put weight back on. I think they key is making sure your have enough protein when you diet and you have to exercise- I wish I could say I have practiced what I preach but it's a real struggle.
    Love the Rocket, I have a Rocket 3 GT and it's my favorite bike ever.

    I have an old Victory XC that's going to need to be replaced sooner or later... I want something with (significantly)more power but I don't want to give up the comfort or touring ability(since touring is mostly what I use a road bike for). The Rocket 3 has been on mind to try out as a possible replacement. Thanks for the ramblings, always entertaining to have a listen to your random thoughts 😉

    I remember pulling away from a set of lights to find a wasp had flown under my chin bar! Only time I've had a bug in my helmet I know about.
    Slowly lifted the visor up as I was moving and out it went!
    As for the weight thing, I used to be the other way around and your right. It's a whole different lifestyle change. You have to enjoy what you eat or you won't stick with it.
    Also most people on a diet, just stop eating and changing their diet on a whim as opposed to slowly taking away certain things. It's so much easier to maintain if you do it gradually.
    100 calories less that week. 100a week or 2 later etc.
    And I totally want that EV rant! 😁

    Great video, had everything in it! And made me laugh which is alway good. Your spot on, diets don’t work, change of life style does but very hard to do especially in todays world. I’m buying a rocket 3 GT 221 edition. Wanted the R but would have to wait months for one locally. Getting sports bars and mid pegs with it so should be close to an R model and can alway swap if I want a change. Is there any other differences between them? Watched your video on the comparison between the R and GT. Is the seat slightly different? I live on the Orkney islands at the top of Scotland. Currently have a Suzuki GSX S1000 (which I will probably keep as It’s a brilliant all rounder) and before that a GSX-R1000R.

    I rode the original Rocket Roadster. I couldn't believe how easy was to get off the side stand. And how light it felt on the go. Obviously to do with the low centre of gravity.
    Weight: 16/8 - you can eat as much as you normally do and lose weight. It works, but you have to keep it up.

    I have the same issue Chops. Only 24 and the last 2 years ive been slowly putting weight on... I work hard every day quite psychical work. I wouldn't say I eat THAT much. But the weight keeps creeping up and dieting did help but you can't keep to it forever.... it's boring, it's an inconvenience, it's actually expensive!
    You aren't alone and don't feel down about it. All you can do is try your best and keep mindful of the situation you are faced with.

    I'm exactly the same in regards to how I ride, I much prefer riding with mates, the chat and banter at the stops etc. I don't enjoy it nearly as much riding alone, and if I do I rarely stop somewhere, just have a blast a bit of an explore then go home.
    This was almost like an old school standard motovlog, that we don't tend to get from bigger uk moto channels, really enjoyed something a little different. Maybe put up some of those rides with your mates from time to time, would be a great fun video I would think.

    Managed to loose 4 stone, then my mum passed away and put it back on again. 3 years later I’ve lost half of that again and I’m a hell of a lot fitter but it’s just exhausting trying to maintain any kind of progress.

    Great ride chopsy, a few points
    1) totally agree with the body weight, it is a lifestyle change not a diet that works long term.
    2) Rowlands Castle is a village not a town.
    3) yes houses are expensive, I know that as I live there..
    4) yes the Bumblebee cafe is really good, but does get the lycra crowd.. Who seem to think standing in a group blocking a pathwath for pedestrians is acceptable behaviour.
    Keep up the great videos and feel free to post the occasional rant..

    I went up to 30st then went to 14st and now around 20 but hate it tbh and I’ve got a new rocket GT and feel uncomfortable at times on the twisting roads.

    I remapped my Rocket 3 R.. I installed Tune ECU and then downloaded the panner Tune from the forums and its transformed the bike. Its soooo fast now..

    Yep, my late twenties/early thirties leathers are a different size than my late thirties/mid fourties’ leathers (so far). HOWEVER, my toys and skills are SO MUCH better. So, I’ll gladly take the latter and buy some new leathers, especially since they now have airbags.

    Great videos. Would you trade your 22 speed twin in for the rocket and have it as your only bike? I test rode the gt and fell in love with it

    I feel your pain Choppsy, I went from 137kg to 100kg and maintained for 2 years then went back up to 146kg over the next 2 years. Now trying to get back to 100 kg, and it's much harder this time around been 5 years older :) I absolutely agree that your body remembers how to be fat and always wants to back to it. In terms of survival been slim is not an attractive proposition for your body it loves to be fat.

    Low carb is the way to go. I went from 99 to 81kg and kept it off. As a bonus also gave T2 diabetes the elbow!

    Keep those videos coming, possibly the most watchable of all the "non professional" test riders 👌

    So, bigger garage and smaller garden? You say that like it's a bad thing 😂. Also, I reckon 2 bogs is the sweet spot 👌. 3 just means 3 lots of bog roll and 3 lots of toilet cleaning 😔. Nice little rambly vid Chops - a change is as good as a rest, eh? Cheers 👍
