Love the bike , Exactly what I would buy if I were to get a new bike! However " I understand about the tassles, they are not for everyone. Not sure if they are permanet, but I've always thought they were bad a$$. " Go to Wal-mart and look at the kids bikes and take note of which bicycles feature Tassles. If you still think their BA flip the rest of us the Bird!

May I suggest the rear debris deflector if I can be so bold as to spend your money
I agree, it is on the list (a rather long list). The Scoop mirrors are great, but they take a little to get used to. Very small and give you two different points of view. Basically, you can't see crap when you first get them.

Bike looks great but when someone makes an air ride, buy it just to suck that fender to the seat. just a thought.......and I agree with the tank lift........... The bike looks Bitchin' and that puts in a category to be criticized.....Oh yeah the fringe is to old school for a "Rocker".

Mike,

The bike looks great. Glad I was able to help you out. BTW...did you do the pegs, or did the dealership do them with the pipes? Every set of pegs says they don't fit the rider position on the rocker, and I'm not quite sure why. I'm guessing it has something to do with the drop-mount of the stockers. BTW....those steel pegs that stick out actually have a function....I've been getting more and more ballsy with how far I'll lay it over while turning, and the other night I ground a nice flat spot into the bottom of the primary cover. Just be careful how far you take it with the new pegs, because there's not much room when turning left.

+1 on the Hearthlandbiker fix. I might even do the Rockin-Bobber.
