Default So dissapointed,...

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]

A guy I know got his the other day, I don't like 'em either...
Looks kinda plastic to me, if they were 14 grand maybe, but certainly not for what they're selling for...
I sat on his to see how it felt, and the first thing I noticed is that my left leg rests against the primary cover, it's in the way...(I'm glad it wasn't hot)...

I totally agree with u ,..I ride a 05 Night Train.
It looks like a Jap wanna be Harley,..Since i am a kid ,,when i see a Harley Davidson passing by
i can feel its a really heavy bike with that "american "tought look,not with this bike.



One more time ,,Its just my opinnion.

My FXSTC looks better than a Rocker C, and they are heavier.

I wanna find one on the street and OUTRUN it!!!

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...

OK, so you don't like the Rockers. So what! It's easy to see that most of you critics didn't buy your current bike for You, you bought them for everybody you think are looking at you when your out for a ride. Grow up dudes. I bought a Rocker C for ME,not for anybody else. I'm proud of the fact I've got enough self confidence and selfesteem to be my own person, be a little different Yes there different. Thank God! All the world needs is another Black Harley Davidson with Ape Hangers and Tassles on the grips. Oh, sorry. I'm starting to sound just like you guys!
