Default 2009 Rocker C ready for paint....

.... just did 2" tank lift...lowered it 2"...Heartland conversion kit...and when I'm through posting this taking tins to paint shop. Still waiting for my mirrors and front turn signal relocation kit to get here...slowly but surely though she's getting there. Will post pics when the rest is done and back from painters.
