I just don't like how high the rear seat is above the fender...

...although if I never see another "custom" "one-of-a-kind" bike on the cover of a magazine that has "drag bars" on it swept back for some 5'2" accountant to ride it, I'll die a happy man! [8D]

I just f*n HATE the rear fender w/light on the vRod. It looks like a metric.

The license plate on the Rocker(C) also looks out of place... but, that's for the aftermarket to worry about.

I think I'll get one when I start putting highlights in my hair...

...don't hold your breath. [sm=dontgetit.gif]
Some good points you have! The rear fender is quite hideous!!!

TWolfe, LMAO, luv the attitude. I don't like the Rocker either. It looks sike something I could outrun with my sons 84 Honda Shadow.
TY, my friend. I'm NOT a "chrome junkie", so alla my $ goes to handling, brakes, and power!

Didja see the messed up fold out P pad on the Rocker C???

Whatta POS! Even the LITTLE chicks I know (100 lbs) would NOT ride on THAT! They LOVE my big ol' COUCH!

The Rockers are a FAILED cross between MY bike and a raked out chopper. WTF is HD THINKIN'???

At least the 'Bones would look good with some black pipes...

You wouldnt want me pulling up beside you with your girl. Trust me. Your bike wouldnt get a second look. They would all be gathered around my rocker C. And your girl would curl her nose up at you and your standard
Actually Ilike the Rocker C. Sure is funny how you guys flame each other's bikes, and manage to flame another model that you think is not worthy in the process. Guy with a FXSTC comes in and says he doesn't like the rocker..........Rocker guy comes in and wants to flame him back andmistakenly identifies thebike as a "standard", and in doing so let's on that he really thinks a standard is just some **** poor Harley.
****........mine's a standard and we **** poor standard guys are **** poor because we've spent so much $$$ trying to catch up with you "elite" [8D]harley owners.

nah. just kidding.........we just like the clean slate for customizing.And we love our red headed step children bikes............................so there.I'm off to the softail standard thread where the bikes are just sick........and the heads that ride 'emaren't bloated.

I own a 2005 Night Train with some mods,,,WHY there? u have a problem with that?

Im not a critic smartguy,,im just a part of a FORUM where people can exrpress (with respect)what they think.

If thats wrong with u i guess u cant be in any forum,cuz thats why forums are made,,TO DISCUSS issues .
Whats more,,do u hear me saying if the bike is good or not?...or anything against anyone who owns one?
im just saying i expected more of it,,like it or not..Its what I think.

MojoJones your bike is HOT! To me that is atrue Harley Davidson right there. Owner finishing what the factory started.

I am not crazy about the Rocker, but it is part of this big happy family that all of us have sacrificed a lot to be in, so if a certain model is the black sheep, brown sheep, prom queen, to someone,whatever, it is still family. I like the Crossbones, but there are some butt ugly things about it, that I would change. I bashed the rocker in the begining, but I am not the CEO at HD, opinions, well they are A holes.

It does bug me though, how some people say they will do this or that, or their "whatever" is betterand then add that their significant other will do something to back up his opinion, positionor action. Oooo, makes it even more justified, just cause my girlfriend, wife, or plain POAthinks so too..... FLAME ON!

just back from the dealer ( Sydney ) they are pretty excited that their first shipment of Rockers arrives today (3) - all pre sold of course. they also hadas floor stock ( again today first day ) the base Rocker . like all harleys it will cater for a particular taste ... not sure that I like it but it sure did look "easy" to maintain cleaning with all that grey powdercoat. Personally I'm looking fwd to the Xbones to hit Australia ... we have a few more months to wait.

I like the Rocker better than the rocker "c" personally, but the gap between the seat and fender bothers me. I wouldn't own one only because I perfer a bike with a little more versatility, and these bikes are better suited for around town or short day trips. I perfer a bike that does everything well, I can put on my solo seat, remove my windshield, sissy bar,and saddle bags and in two minutes have a cool looking around town bike. Or I can put on all the junk, and the sundowner seat, strap on my T-bag and be ready for a cross country trek for me and the wife. Thats why I chose a Fat Boy. To each his (or her) own, I cant afford two bikes so I bought one that will do everything well. P.S. 21000 miles on my 07

impressive - that is lots of miles ... should have bought a heritage and saved yourself the cost of accessories

You guys should also give the Rocker a break because Willie G created the damn thing. He's the true blood of every bike that all of us ride and to bash it outright without giving it respect for being a Harley to begin with is the same as bashing Harley's bloodline.

You can say you don't LIKE the Rocker, but don't go off on a tangeant as if it's a Honda (in that case, flame away)
