Hey. Just bought a 2008 Rocker FXWC. Was looking for some more leg room. Bought a new seat but it only lowered me and didn't do anything to stretch out the legs.
Does anyone have a recommendation for forward controls that would give me a few more inches?
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks...
Congrats on the new ride! Had mine since 09 and LOVE it! Just a quick headsup...check the wheel bearings just to be safe...a bunch of us have had bearing failures. The bearings starting in 08, not good...I had 2 failures in 14k miles. Timken and All ***** make good ones. Enjoy your bike!!!!

****Thanks, Rodzilla! I appreciate the heads up about the bearings; will keep an eye on them & possibly replace before I become a statistic.
