Haven't seen one in person yet. In some pics, I think it looks great, in other pics things don't flow smoothly according to my eye. But I had the same impression of the Street Bob. When I first saw a pic of the Bob, I thought it looked horrible, then I went to a dealer andended up riding one for 12,000 miles. I have no problems with the Rocker. It's not even close to thetop 4 or 5"least appealing Harleys" as far as I'm concerned. Oh, and I like the V-rod too.

I personally like the styling of the Rocker. Nice addition to the Harley family.....I guess "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

Saw the Rocker-C at Smokey Mountain HD the other day, awesome looking ride, for me I didn't like the seat, JMO, Hope you enjoy that ride and have fun with it.

I was originally a bit of a fan... based on the photos and specs... but after seeing several at various car and bike events around Australia I too was very disappointed. I think there may be some ok ones after a few people get done with them though...

I originally was quite upset that they didn't bring it out a year earlier and said I've had bought one instead of my fatboy... but now... NO WAY JOSE!!

Yesterday ,,,i finally saw a Rocker for the first time in a Harley dealer,...

I know its a question of taste but i ve never EVER seen a harley davidson with that "cheap "look in my entire life,!!
Its only my opinnion and i know out there lots of Rockers that some mods will look good,,,
but,,as the way i saw it (stock),,,im totally dissapointed with it.[sm=smiley21.gif]

I actually really like the cast gray, looks different with less maintenance. Reminds me of titanium...

ORIGINAL: grumpez

I think the cheap comments are focused more towards the Rocker, not the Rocker C. That cast silver or gray just doesn't look good, in my opinion. And hey, as said before, what I or anyone else thinks of your bike doesn't matter, as long is you like it. And like Saint said, maybe in time it will grow on me, afterall, the tank is off a Deuce.

I saw a commercial with one of them going down the road, everytime it hit a bump it flexed. I instantly thought of an "Inch Worm".

i like the Rocker C, not my first choise, but definitely not my last either. i like it better than the cross bones for sure. i don't like the base model Rocker though. like others say, it just looks cheap. for being so similar, its funny how much i like the Rocker C and dislike the Rocker.
