Rocker Handleing?
Hypothetically, Iam 200lbs riding a Rocker on the highway at 55 miles per hour, what happens when you pass an oncoming super b, big 18 wheeler. A. Blown off the road. B.Am I and the bike heavy enough to stay on the road. C. Anyone have first hand exp. to share?

Greetings,
A Rocker C handles fine. I'm 5'10", 160lbs, and have been passed by semis and not blown around at all. You just prepare yourself for it. Always look in the mirrors to see what's coming.

I have had no problems with trucks blowing me off the road (200lbs). In fact the Rocker handles it really well. I have even rode in the tail wind of a semi with little to no difficulty.

The Rocker C Is 8 pounds lighter than your Fatboy. So I wouldnt think the feel passing trucks would be any different.

If you've ever ridden a motorcycle before it's just about the same on most bikes. The only time i've ever heard about people having problems is with solid rims, not any bike in particular.
