Default RE: ROCKER..it's arrived..

Living here in milwaukee its nice because right outside the plant is hwy 45 and they love to run the new bikes up and down the highway for testing. I got to ride next to one for about 5 miles in late sept. They look nice with that tire on the back but other the the rear half the bike didn't impress me. I will stick with touring models for the kinda coin they want for the rocker.

I saw a blue Rocker C at local dealership yesterday, and it is mounted on a softail frame , the seat is really squirrely, the wheels are alumium versus chrome on Screamin' eagles. It has no appeal to me and it was priced at 22,000.00. If I am spending that kind of money it'll be on an Ultra or a Screamin' eagle bike.....Bldr

I have not seen it in person yet, but I think it looks really cool. Granted, I would not replace my RG with one, but it looks like a fun bar hopper.

That's what I'm sayin!

Are they really going for $22k-ish?

Holly Cow! $22,000 should be enough to scare anyone off. That can't be MSRP, is it?

saw rocker at dealer in Pa last night. seat is wierd at best and the 19" front tire threw me off a bit thought a 21"would have fit the bike better. probably the thing that stood out the most was they ruined the back fender mounting the plate on it. should have been off the axle. still a sharp bike from the moco

too bad the MOCO missed the whole chopper fade by about 2 years. If the timing was right this may of had a chance, but they do need to do something with that funky as* seat set up looks like somthing a 4year old would come up with.I'll pass but its nice to see some more options.

Saw one last nice here in Cleveland.They did a lot of work to replace the Duece. The offset on the footpegs felt funny.The finishon the motor is gross. And I can'tstand the Speedo set up in the air above the tank. The wheels are best part of the bike
