Hi Everybody,

I don't own a Harley at the moment, but I am saving for one. I have fallen in love with the Harley Rocker. I think Harley could have put a lot more thought into style and design on the Rocker, but that just makes it a good platform for some custom upgrades. While I am saving my money and waiting to be able to buy my first bike, I am looking at it as an opportunity to do the needed research to find out what modifications I need to make to make it the dream bike that I have in my head.

I am from south Alabama and have wanted a Harley since the early 90s but always told myself that I can't afford one. I am now 42 and decided that I will never be able to "afford" one. So, I just have to buy one and work on it little by little till I make it the bike that I have built in my head a hundred times over. I love big fat wheel choppers, and of all the Harleys I have ever seen the Rocker looks like the easiest to convert to what I have in my head.

I look forward to getting to know ya'll better over time. Would love to get in the wind with some of ya'll one of these days. Ride safe and may God bless you and yours.
