I don't like the Rocker.
Doesn't even seem like my 7yr old son could sit comfortably in that passenger seat, much less some of the "full grown" women I usually see riding 2-up on a Harley.
Now that's funny - "full grown" - talk about hittin the nail on the head!

Look at how small that passenger seat looks.
Hell it'll look even smaller with a bigger rider on there...then it would really leave no room for a passenger.
Why even put the passenger seat if it's not really functional?
...Look at that Pic.
Look at the Rear tire, then the Tank, then the Front tire.
Again, Rear, Tank, Front...
Something seem strange?

Not for me, but, I bet they sell out.
I still don't like the seat what-so-ever but Triple S has already sold out from what I hear. They get them at the end of Sept. because I want to see 1 but was told as soon as they get here they are already goneNot like I'm buying 1 so I'll see them somewhere up close[8D]

Yes
The front tire seems too small,
The bike doesnt seem to "flow"
It appears the seating position is pushed very far foward. The rider looks like hes riding a bike equiped with mids.
I think Harley ought to stick with building regular bikes, and leave the custom bikes to the custom builders, and quit trying to use the Guberment to put them out of buisness.
Beides, you can get a custom for not much more than that bike. Maybe thats what has Harley pissed off.

"I'm your Huckleberry..."

Well I bought one (Rocker C) and take possession next month. Why did I buy it sight unseen (and seat unsat)? Well, I guess I am middle of the road between the style of custom bikes but still like the classic feeling of Harley. Not to mention where ever I move (and I move a lot to include overseas) I can find someone to service it if that is what I need. Not to mention $20K was in my budget but $30K+ for a Big Dog or American Ironhorse was not. Not that one of them is not in my future.

OEM it should be cool but I have been planning several custom steps over time ($ ya know).

I was looking at the Road King and the Fat Bob as well and admire almost everything about them and they are still great looking bikes. I just didn't want to ride them as my own.

I think there is room in the Harley family for Rockers. It takes all kinds to make the HD world go round. Rest assured as soon as I put a few miles on it I will give my personal review. Heck, been to Afghanistan and Iraq, 'taking a chance' on this bike is small potatoes... ha ha
