Default Rocker C pics..Work in progress

While we are all waiting on the pipe solution, here is what I have done so far...

Rear debris deflector, chrome covers for sprocket bolts, and chrome insepction plate...




Chrome controls and centerline grips (Arlen Ness Rad III mirrors are on order)...




Smooth HD logo shift linkage..



chrome master cylinder lid and centerline pegs...




close up of master cylinder and chrome controls...



Total body shot..Fork bag is installed for limited carrying capacity...

Thanks. They are still very hard to find. I did find one at one of the DFW stores, but the aholes had it marked up to $22,800. Unbelievable that these guys do this. I paid MSRP for mine up at Red River HD in Whicita Falls, TX.

The biggest frustration I have is the lack of available accessories. Hopefully, time will help this...

I heard a RUMOR that the ROCKER was just a twisted up DEUCE

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.

American Eagle in Corinth, TX. Most stores should stock this or a similar part.

Thanks for the compliment on the floor. It has been down now for over 2 years, and it is a "mod' to the house that I really love. I'll do it on every house I am fortunate to own in the future.

Relative to the bike, no problem dude. We each have our own tastes, and different things appeal to different folks. I see quite a few bikes that I "just don't get" either, but if the owner digs it, that cool.

I would love to relocate the license plate to the rear swingarm and get the seat a little closer to the rear fender. The shot from behind looks great with the 240 tire, and the low fender.

Agree with doing the seat lower , in my opinion that is the only weak point as far as looks on your bike . Wonder what a X-Bones seat would look like , might be too nostalgic , but - maybe not !

looks good!! I love the flames.... is that a Harley paint set?

I wanted a Rocker back last September when I decided to get back on a HD. BUT, I really didn't want to wait for them to finally hit the street.
