Rocker C handles like a dream
Well, I've been riding my Rocker C for a couple of weeks now and I have to say that it handles like a dream. Twisties are effortless. I've had no clearance issues or problems leaning in the curves of the German hilly country side.
Maybe it is my experience on Motocross or Sport bikes, but I was worried with the rake and the 240 tire for a minute. But, this bike handles like a dream. Effortless to me.
The only think that isn't as comfortable is the slow turn around on a small street. But, as I learn the bike it'll be easier too.

I agree, It handles like a dream.. but twisties.... I slow right down. Makes for a nice cruise though. And im the only one in my group of riders NOT on a CBR or Ninja... so thats who Im trying to keep up with in thoes twisties..

Are you saying yours doesn't handle well? I think mine rides and handles great! Highway, twisties, around town, u-turns, I love it! Couldn't be happier.

Basically, I'm just saying that I expected something more difficult than what it has been.
However, that damn thing is heavy as hell...lol. I'm 6"4 and touching the ground isn't a problem. But if you live on a country hill/mountain like I do up a narrow street, then trying to push up hill backwards a bit to maneuver is nearly impossible.

Sometimes my posts make me sound like a dick but I'm really not. 
I'm sure anyone that has ever ridden a Rocker would agree that it handles far better than they thought it would. I know I was pleasantly surprised.
But on the flipside, compared to bikes with modern suspension, it handles like a dog. Agreed?
Thanks for your service, RIP
