Paul Henshaw likes the Super Rocket

I need to put my SR back to stock gearing like this one. I have it overgeared at the moment.

Looks like fun on the B roads.

He stops to give his thoughts just about midway and again at the end.
After he starts out, the first ten minutes is city/town riding, then the road gets more interesting.

He liked the commando aswel when he took it out
And the matchless V twin
I love the asbo Enfield's he builds

He tends to like them all to a degree, but he really got worked up about the Super Rocket. Maybe his expectations were low given that the A65 is seen as sporty and the A10 as pretty dull.
The A10s do have quite good grunt off the bottom after each gear change-up, and that was evident on the climb.

He tells it like it is.
After riding a very flashy looking B31 Gold Star Replica
" Well it certainly looks faster than it is"

Hedgerows and water on white paint on the road scare me. Might be safer than it looks through a GoPro lens.

Good ride. The climb reminded me of rolling hill rides with low traffic in parts of California. Good stuff.

I haven't found a Matchless v twin ride. He worked on then rode a Royal Enfield 1000 v twin. Awhile after that he tuned up and rode another Royal Enfield V twin, an 1140.
That one had gobs of torque and a really thunderous sound.
Low revving but it really pulled nicely.

Yep sorry it was an Enfield not a matchless
It looked brilliant and sounded brilliant
