Im getting a rocker. not sure why so many people think its so ugly. Now with that said i dont like the space between the seat and the fender but think something will come out to fix it. I hear corbins working on a seat. What i would base my decision on is if your going to have a passenger. If so id get the duece cause i dont think im going to let my wife on the small passenger seat on the rocker doesnt seem to safe. Just get the one you like best like I am and not worry about it

Rocker is using left over Deuce tanks and other items.. and the CrossBones is using left over Springer parts..

Man I finally saw that passenger seat in person and there is no way in hell a chick over 120 lbs can ride on that thing. Maybe a good screening system for the nights your bar hopping on that thing.

I saw a rocker for the first time yesterday. NO WAY. i can't pin point it yet but there is something out of wack. besides the way to much space between the rear fender and the seat, tank being to long for the bike, etc.

also the key goes in on the side where the horn usually is and has to stay in so it will be hanging out the side.

but ultmately it is your choice ride both and go with what you like. all this other stuff including what i say in only personal opinions and only good for who ever wrote it. a bike is personal.

Another biased vote for the Deuce

I just bought a Rocker C and love it.I also like the Deuce. Both are great looking bikes. The reason I bought the Rocker was because IT WAS DIFFERENT. I don't mind change. I also love the 240 rear tire. My plan when I was looking at the Deuces and NT's was to convert them to 240's so I saved myself some money. In the end it is up to you and which one you like. Don't let narrow minded people make the decision for you. Just my $.02
