Go with the Deuce. The Rocker is butt ugly.

Take the Rocker. There has been months of hype which has built interest. If you don't like it, you will, I believe, be able to sell a used '08 Rocker easier than the 07 Deuce which will be two model years old in six or seven months.

GO WITH THE DEUCE!!!!! I can't bring myself to appreciate the Rocker!! They'd have to sell it for $10k out the door because it would take another $5-7k to get it looking good.

Once you see them in person, side by side, your decision will probably become clear. The Rocker is what you've been waiting for - you pretty much lose nothing if you get the Rocker because as was said above, you could sell it quite easily. You can always pick up a Deuce -maybe not a brand new one in a dealership- but one with low miles.

I look forward to hearing your comparison on how the 2 compare on the ride!

Deuce is two grand less sticker vs. sticker and with whatever caused the Rocker to be delayed so long would have me a little worried. If you ever plan on riding two up the Deuce gets the nod there too. I would throw all my arguments out though cause I'm way biased.

Ridethe Rockerand go with the one that feels right for you. Good luck let us know what you decide.

Get the Deuce. The Rocker is nothing more than a bitch version of the Deuce. Go with the original rather than the fugly step sister.

Nether, get a standard, or a train.
