Thanks guys. Went with ride wright wheel for the rear. One good thing about them was that the wheels are made for your bike when you order so you know it's gonna fit. You know how the rockers are the odd bike out and nothing seems to fit em. Not sure who makes the bars I have but if you are looking for some I'm getn ready to sale these. Love the bars just want some a bit taller.

Rocker c interest, test drove one and enjoyed it. Considering trading my 2011 street glide 23k miles for 09 rocker c 6k miles plus $3600 or so. Worth going to the rocker? Like the open wind and miss it, comfort of rocker?

What size did you go with and is it actually for the rocker. I ask because when I ordered mine I made the mistake of finding the correct size but it was not made for a rocker which made the job of making it fit a nightmare. I also ordered a wheel to fit a wide glide since I changed to a wide glide front end. Anyways that's a whole different story. Just curious? What's your plans for the rear?

I gotta say that I absolutely love my rocker. Bought the bike brand new and got one summer of riding in before I realized that the stock set up was not nearly as comfortable as it could be. The stock seat on it is about as uncomfortable as they come. Finally found a seat that I liked the looks of and also sat me down and back from the original position. That changed the entire set up of the bike for me. Instantly loved it. After that I put the apes on it which stretched me out even more and the comfort of the ride couldn't be better. Over all I have to say that the rocker is a really good bike. Fun to ride, and a lil bit different from your run of the mill harley. That's just my opinion. Hope it helps!

Haha. That IS funny. After I made the front work I figured I could do the same for the back so I ordered a much cheaper dna for the rear. As you know that didn't work. On the rear you have pretty much gotta get one made for the rocker. Rear hub on the rocker is definitely an odd size.

I'm running a Heartland Rocker Replica 21" x 2.15 with a 90/90 Dunlop.
I slotted the front fender mounting holes to allow clearance for the larger front.
I noticed no handling difference from the stock 19" x 2.15 wheel/tire.
I like the stock wheel look, so stayed with that exact style.
