Default Need information on your Rocker

If you got one, I want to hear from you. Please don't chime in if you own a Fatboy and want to tell me how ugly they are or why I should avoid it? What is a "Real World street value? Got a chance to pick up a 2010 stock Rocker with 5000 miles at a deal---trading my Valkyrie straight up.I have interest in the Valk at $7K so I think that is about what it is worth.

Why the low miles? Is it uncomfortable? Hard to tell from pictures. Is that still the 96 CID Twinkie and 6 speed? What do you love or hate about your bike.I want to hear from you owners.

Is it a Rocker or Rocker C? Lately I've seen stock Rocker Cs with similar millage selling for $6k-8k and a few with under 1k miles going for around $9k+. The stock Rockers are going for a little less.

It is a 96 with a 6 speed, and in stock form I wouldn't call it "uncomfortable", but with a couple of suspension upgrades, a good seat, and handlebar swap (if needed), it can be made very comfortable!!

As far as the low miles, to many possible reasons to guess, but like most Harleys models...there's a lot of garage queens out there.

What do I love about mine....EVERYTHING!!!
