well, after weeks of thinking about it, went for a ride on the BMW GS Adventure after 40 miles headed off the the Harley Dealer, an hour later I had an order in for a new cool blue Rocker C, she should be here in about 10 days, adding the Vance & Hines Black big radius, Black Screaming Eagle Deep Breather Kit and pro tuner for the stage one, and some black diamond grips for now! be interested on luggage solutions fellow c owners use, but will post on that subject,
She will go along side my 883 iron, its she that caused all of this!
I brought the 883 iron as a summer run around, but have just loved it so much, the adventure was just not been used, just love the more relaxed riding style a Harley provides plus, I really enjoy not having to dress up like Darth Vader every time I fancy a ride out, pair boots, dragging jeans, leather jacket, open face helmet and I am off, love it.

You lucky dog.... If my legs were longer I'd have gotten a Rocker. The lines on that bike are spectacular. If that blue is close to cobalt...oh man...she is gonna be a looked.
I know what you mean about ditchin the Darth Vader look. Older I get the less black I want...but my fattie is damn near all blacked out...
Your mod list is dead on... you are gonna enjoy the pizz out that thing. Only issue might be "luggage" .... I have Saddleman roll bags in various sizes...recently I caved in and added small rigid leather MOCO bags...but that would be a sin on a beautiful Rocker.
Welcome to Rocker World! You may eventually want to get a different seat, as the Rocker C seat is extremely uncomfortable (e.g., Danny Gray, Jeffrey Phipps, Bitchin Seat Company, or a 2008-2010 FXCW seat (though I am not sure it will fit on the 2011 FXCWC).
Welcome to the Rocker Clan... I'd say switching the stock "cinder block" seat out for the Danny Gray was the best mod I've done so far.

Congrats and welcome to the madness! I think Leather Works makes a swing arm bag that looks good on a Rockers. A seat change is a must! Although my best mod was my shotgun shocks.
