hey all, new guy here, just picked up my 09 rocker, put 16" apes, a stage 1 kit with short shots and the se twisted cone breather, has any body put a sprung solo on their rock? thinking this might be a good alternative to the heartland kit while the bank account replenishes. any pics, thanks guys,

I think it would look great. It would have to be more comfortable than the stock Rocker C seat. Just do it and be different.
I went with the Danny Gray seat and love it. Feels like I'm riding in the bike instead of on top of it now.


P.S. Welcome to the forums and fellow Rocker owners.

Welcome and good luck with the Rock. Dude, do yourself the favor and forget te over prices heartland kit. All that does is move the gap from between the fender and seat and move it to between the fender and tire. It looks like a dirtbike fender its so far off the tire. The stock Rocker fender hugs the tire and looks great. Save the $$$ and get a Danny Gray seat, they are all over E-bay for $ 450 or less if your patient. You'll love the look and youre SO much lower and furthur back its great. 2 best things I've done to my Rock so far are the seat and Apes. Completly changed the bike for the better.

Really? A dirt bike fender? I think you need to do a little more research before you insert foot again.

This rock has a sprung solo, it's not mine, but it gives you an idea how it could look like.
