Default New Rocker Seat...L@@K!!!

Ok here are some pics of the new FXCW seat I just installed
today. It narrowed the gap between the fender and the bottom of the seat
almost 1 inch. In my opinion the seat is much more comfortable than
the FXCWC seat. It seems as though you have a little more something
behind your backside as opposed to the other seat. I didn't have the paint-matched
cover pieces to cover where the bolt holes were at, so I went to the stealer and
purchased some chrome bolts and washers to just put in the holes.
Stayed tuned for V&H Big radius pipes coming Friday...

Beautiful.

It really accents the sweep from the tank to the rear fender. Looks like it might even be comfortable too!

Looks great, how much did you lower your bike?

Looks great. I put the FXCW seat on mine but would like to lower it more. Problem is I'm a fat A$$ and to old for the bumps. Great job.

The seat looks nice and comfy but I am not ready to give up my extra seat yet or purchase touring pack... Bike looks great! I like the mirrors.

Thsi will be so obvious to you guys...but...I'm a Dyna guy...Is that just a 'regular' Rocker seat on a Rocker C? And...why does a Rocker C cost almost 2k more than a 'regular' Rocker? Sorry for the dumb question..I did look around some before asking!

No, the Rocker C has a hidden passenger seat underneath the driver's seat. Most of the $2K price difference is in the chrome pieces provided on the Rocker C that aren't on the Rocker (but available at a slightly higher price from MOCO) and the "trick" seat

Dude, that rocks. Can you tell me what the part is you used to blank the rear light holes with? I need a solution to the worlds largest plate on the back of mine!
