Default Rocker C Foward Controls

I have am '09 Rocker C. I am 6'3" and I was wondering which forward controls I would need to order. I found several for different bikes but not ones that state "Rocker" or "FXCWC". I want to get 3" fowards but do not want to buy some that will not fit my bike. Any help with this would be grateful.

TIA

No information on controls for you but I changed my seat to the Danny Gray weekday solo and have a very comfortable leg position now. I am 6'1". The seat will move you back a few inches for under $300 on eBay.

Here's pics of what I put on my Rocker. They are Arlen Ness. The kit comes with the longer shift linkage and long brake line. I am really happy with these. The only regret is that the extending plate isnot chrome.

Great thread, I too am 6'3 and have the same issue. I have been told to look for forward controls for softail or big twins 2000 up. I have my eye on the controls below....are they suitable? Would I need another kick stand?

Yes my DG seat has set the riding position back slightly (2" maybe) but at 6'3 we need all the help we can get!!

I went with the +3 Battistini controls and really like them. It did require me to relocate the kickstand which I like better, because I can reach down and hand flip it. My only beef with the bike now is that my right leg bows out against the Heavy Breather. I'm looking to replace next year with a shorter profile air cleaner that still has plenty of "breathability"
