Yes a few have a PLAIN rocker, but it is hard to find a stock rocker. There aren't going to be many plain (Not Cs) being that they only sold them two years. Yes I have a Non C Rocker, but it is not plain. It is not near as fancy as many I have seen, but it will b just how I want it when done. I am not a chrome fan myself so I opted to go with it.

This is my Rocker, There are many like it, but none just like this one...Bang Bang...LOL

I didn't read all the post but just think about it,

Most Younger riders love to get on the computer and pound away about their bike and they are the ones that do a lot of work on them.

Most younger riders have the Rockers and Night trains, and I like them, just not the kind of bike Grandma and I want or need...

Like some say we just had a charity run with over 500 bike, I saw two rockers and maybe 10 Night Trains... FB's RK's and Heritages where probably 75% of bikes there.

Most older guys like me (Almost 60) and others over 50, wouldn't ride or buy them, but some still do.

Most of the elderly don't post very often in here either. I do cause I am retired and don't like the showes the wife watches at night.

In the past several yrs I've read the FB's and the Heritage's are the most popular Softails, but the older owners just don't post much in here And it seems like they don't change or make custom out of there bikes as much as the younger ones with the other bikes do.

When I was in my 20's (1972), I tore mine down, sand blasted and painted all of her, laced up a fat 16" rear tire, chromed out everything I could, redone the motor, 6" over fork tubes. KQ seat, Six bend bars, and rode the chit out of her.

Now at my age I just added a few K's in chrome and a few more K's to make the motor cooler and added a little more Tq in the low end and we are happy, don't want to tear her down.

We really like what we have and just want to ride.
