The Rocker will look sweet with a springer. My WG has 34 deg of rake at neck, I believe the Rocker is 36 deg, so it will look more stretched then mine. I have no added rake or offset.
I just installed this springer on my '06 Train. I powdered the rear tubes in gloss black and the front tubes in wrinkle black to match the engine.
I did the Heartland kit too.....
Most companies will tell you not to install raked springers until you cross the 45* rake on the neck. You still have to consider rake and trail with a springer. It's just calculated different.
The springer will look very nice on the rocker! Good luck with it!
Damnit TX, quit waving that thing around before you put someones eye out!! Yours is still one of my most favorite bikes on this forum. Still waiting for some good finished pics so I can get some new wallpaper to stare at. How's it coming?
Wow Man4Mopar, that thing looks raked out. I guess it's just because of the way the wheel sticks out more on the springer front end. Very nice bike too by the way.
