I'd get the Deuce and but a fatter tire on the front. I won't go so far as to say the Rocker is ugly, but it's defintely weird looking. Just my biased opinion.

I sat on the new Rockers at Calif Bike Week. Felt pretty good but I would get the Deuce.

Another thing to remeber is like was mentioned already "caused the Rocker to be delayed so long would have me a little worried."

First year model and all the possible issues. Hell were talking about a 2008 model that keeps getting delay after delay and only a hand full have made it to a dealer. Could be some underlying issues and they maybe just pushing them out the door who knows. Theres reasons your not seeing them in the show room cause they have problems!!!!!!!!

Deuce is a sharp bike but maybe you want to be one of the first to have the Rocker i don't think they look bad.

Nether, get a standard, or a train.
Nice looking ride, but who in the f&^K is gonna see your turn signals down there?

Tough choice. Since you seem to be considering both, I would think the deal price would be important. Also as someone else pointed out, a first run newly released product may have some hidden nasties which could causesome service/warranty headaches.

One more for the Deuce, you can make it what you want, the Rocker is what you get, at least for the next few months.

Go with a standard softail and then do what ever it is that you would like to it.
Forget the hype of the rocker or the new X bones.

Get the Deuce! the rockwer is a fad, its already played out & its brand new! The deuce is a sweet bike plus for the price you can easily get bags & pipes + other stuff compared to the rockers price
