RE: Rocker Pictures
ORIGINAL: Marsh
I'm curious about something. Is the Rocker with the fold away seat designed for single guys bar hopping in hopes of picking up a chick to ride on the back? If they strike out they keep the seat tucked away, but if they get lucky they pop it out and ride away for a fun evening.
If this is it's purpose, why would a happily married guy want one?
I don't know, but it looks like the answer to a un-asked question to me, but if I were a young single stud I might be hot for one.
Please educate this happily married codger.
I think it's funny looking, but look at my ride. What do I know?
No flame intended, I'm just curious to understand the reasoning behind the inovative design.

RE: Rocker Pictures
It's amazing to see a thread only 10 days old!! I heard the new range was out on the Internet on Monday. On Wednesday I ordered my new Rocker C. Sadly, I have to wait 6 months here in Oz for my new toy. The solo dealership here already had 4 on stock orderand all were pre-sold.... bummer!!!
I'm sure it will be worth the wait. As for the seat....well........I reckon the "dickie-seat" is a brilliant concept but would not suit a wife/girlfriend for more than just a short trip. After all, I wouldn't want to sit on it for too long!!
The accessory pillion seat/backrest setup looks pretty substantial and suitably strong. I agree it looks a little bitodd being so high above the rear guard but may just look better in real life and/or with possibly slightly lowered suspension. I've always wondered why all those awesome US custom bike designers only built custom bikes for solo riders. Am I missing something here?? I've done 20,000 miles on my '03 WideGlide and 99% was 2-up. Am I supposed to tell my missus to stay at home 'cos my bike looks uncool with a 2-up seat?? Comments welcome!!
all the best from Downunda!!
