With all due respect, I dig the front 1/2 but I just dont get the rear of this ride, its almost an after thought.
BTW, your garage floor is sweet.

SilverDawg,
Thanks for sharing!!!
You haveone awesome lookin Rocker-C. I just ordered mine last week. Initially thought I wanted the pearl blue (sams asyours) but switched to crimson red on the day I made the deposit (feedback from wife).
I may post my in-progress upgrades beginning in May (only on rainy evenings). What I have planned so far:
saddlebags and thinking about the Riders Essential Kit (luggage rack, bigger pass seat, & windshield)
RE: pipes - spent the last week researching aftermarket pipes for the rocker and came to the conclusion that there really aren't any decent aftermarket upgrades yet. I researched forums & pipe vendor web sites. One of the vendor sites I visited said that the EFI mapping on the rocker is optimized for the 96" CI with use of factory pipes and we can expect GREAT low-end torque. I just want the DEEP HD RUMBLE but do not want to lose any performance in the process.

Thanks folks.
Aviator, yes the paint set is standard HD for the Rocker C. Pretty cool looking and I am not really a blue guy.
Others need to post what they have done in detail so we can see what this "stuff" looks like as these bikes are so new.
Also, any information on availability of accessories, especially pipes and high flows would be beneficial for all owners.

The chrome controls are one of the parts you see 100% of the time you are in the saddle. I have had them on all of my bikes. Just one of those things I "gots to have"
