I wouldn't buy a rocket especially for your first bike(if it is your first bike). I like Zuki's they run good. I like the zx14 too though. if it has 2 wheels i love it as long its not a moped. The m109 can run high 11's stock in the quarter mile stock. Fast, comfy, big rear tire, lots of power and i have to admit that 50mph in first gear on a cruiser is pretty impressive. They are torque monsters too.
