Smile My "new" Rocker C

Hi, here I introduce my "new" Rocker C, which I bought in April used. It is from 2008 and had about 11.000 miles and was in "like new" condition.

It is my seventh HD after a Heritage Softail, 2 Road Kings, V-Rod 100th anodized, Softail Deluxe and at last a Night Rod Special.

I am very hapy with the Rocker

I changed since April so far

- Seat Danny Gray
- Rear Fender with Tail Light, Turn Signals Kellermann Micro1000
- Handgrips "Narrow Band"
- Tanklift
- Voltage regulator Cover
- Turn Signals Front Kellermann BL1000
- Frame Caps Pacific Blue Pearl
- Tire Front to Metzeler 100/90
- Tire Rear to Metzeler 260/40

The Metzeler seems to be a really improvement compared to the Dunlops.

I am looking for that chromed fins for the oil tank, but can't find anything about it...

Hi Jan, congrats to your new rock, looks cool.
I suggest to swap your license plate into the new ones with a smaller size.

Hi HD100,

guess I could answer in german - am I right? Your bike is a rocket, wow!

No, changing the license plate isn't really an oppinion after I saw the new license plates in real. They look in a strange way not very harmonic at all at the bikes. Anyway, the costs for modifying the side mounted license plate from Gentscher won't stand for the result of it. With the 260 and the cleaned fender it now has in my eyes an consistent look.
