Pull the reflectors to start with then by the looks of your picture you might look at some forward control extensions so you can stretch out a little as well..

Welcome...Dont listen to these guys talkin colors with you. I am sure if we actually looked at how many Rockers have sold we would see that there are more Black ones out there and it is an entire scheme in itself to black out. We all know that Black is the sexiest color on anything that has a motor and moves. Have fun

Default Seat Question

Thanks for all the replies. First question of many no doubt:

Looks like the seat could be first. I'm sure I have read this on other threads but I need to confirm my understanding.

If I fit a custom made Danny Gray seat to my Rocker C can I easily switch back to the stock trick seat when the girlfriend hops on? How long does it take? is it a big job?

Thanks

Just go ahead and go with the Heartland Kit and seat, you will be happier in the long run even though it is pricey. Not sure what DG seat costs, but i think it is almost half of what i payed for my Heartland conversion. Either way is a huge improvement though.

Thanks mate! A DG seat will cost me about $544 (not sure if that includes shipping). If its easy to swap with my current stock seat when I need too the its a no brainer, just need to know if it can be done and how long it takes.

Thanks again....Doug
