Always wanted a rocket, but realized Id probably kill myself, not only that Id liket o have a bike I can take a distance and be moderately comfortable, for both me and my wife when Im comfortable enough to throw her on the back.

Not against buying used at all, just havent seen many older cruisers that have the style I want.

I was just looking at some used Iron 883s and they seem to drop value pretty quick looking at what people are currently selling them for, maybe thats the way to go.
