My bike is better than your bike.

 

Staring at the stock ones....... Its almost like somethings missing.... dunno what, but something seems a little off.

It looks like it could make a Great foundation for those who custom out their ride.... if aftermarket pumps out some great accessories.... maybe a little fabricating.....
Could be Really cool....... but stock models aint grabbin me !

But just like the rest of us really !
How many here Ride "Stock" bikes ?

Anywyas...............

 

I learned long ago, if you want an American V-Twin then buy a Harley.. Big Dog's are very well made but the dealer network of 100 can leave you a long way from help if you need it.. 70 miles to my nearest dealer is a little farther than 7 miles to my HD dealer..

I agree, there are pro's and con's to all makes and models.. Very few of these are "stock" after we get our hands on them..We look for the platform that most suits us and what we envision.. After that we all work our magic.. The Rocker appealed to me by giving me the "platform" I needed in order to achieve the look I wanted.. I wanted the longer rake and I wanted the fat tire without being an obnoxious 280mm or 300mm.. There are things that I don't like.. The handgrenade ignition is kinda cool but it ejects the key everytime you stop and have to turn it off.. What I wouldn't give for the old style on the tank sometimes.. With that setup also comes the flatter speedo.. Thought about a tank lift but in the end I really like the long and low look.. I read someone's post that the Rocker was short?.. Really?.. It's 8' long.. A Big Dog is 6" longer.. Big deal..

Here's my vision of a Rocker..

 

Yep, I like the Rocker - either version.

But then I ride an ugly orange FLTR, so I'm no roadmap for two wheeler fashion! LOL

Ride on Rocker folk. You're welcome in my camp any day!

 

Now if I would have seen THAT bike on the showroom floor.......
I woulda paid closer attention !

Nice Scoot.......

 

I actually like the 09 FXDL (Low rider) it has the exact paint as my 82 fxrs only thing different is the tank decal

 

The Heartland kit does make the Rocker slightly more palatable.

 

bought one, love it, seat is a bit uncomfortable but hey....... changing the seat is one of the easiest mods you can do to a bike.

 

If Like the Rocker Go for it ... Doesn't Ring any Bells for me .. But we are all different ..

 

dont look bad to me,but you know they will be everywhere soon,new riders will flock to em,ill keep my ultra
