I like the the Rocker. That being said, I prefer wire wheels so I would go with a Softtail

Denim Black....Join the dark side.


And then prepare to completely drain the bank account.

Buying the bike is the cheap part.

Good luck on your color choice. The lo is a great lookin bike.
Have you looked through the softail pictures section?
Might help you decide on the color.

I like blue.

I too was torn between these 2 bikes. I went with the Rocker C, because well only those who own one really know. Its a cool bike. Another reason I didn't get the Lo is that here in the Islands, everyones got a fatboy.
As for color, be different go silver. In the end it is really all up to your personal style.
No matter what you get, you will be HAPPY!

I own a rocker , i bought it cause it looks better than a fatboy, or any other harley for that matter , if all i wanted to do was ride on sundays and ride less than 300 miles then the rocker is my choice . If im looking for something i can put serious miles on , more comfortable , better handeling ,second rider , and more accessories id go with a fatboy .Personally a street glide would be my second choice .
