  • Love it!
    By  (I am an Owner) on Oct 14, 2009

    Got a 2009 Rocker C in blue. Always had Yamaha's. Liked the idea of the shaft drive. Last bike was a 650 V-star. Sharp but....

    There's something about a Harley. Makes you want to ride, ride, ride. Don't get me wrong. You will need to bend over and lube up when it comes to any upgrades. ...

    Make sure you know what you're getting when you buy add on parts. Like I say they are not cheap and not always what you'd expect. Like a $600 add on seat w/ sissy bar that isn't fully chromed? WTF? And a $20 key chain that had "CHINA" stamped on the back.

    Oh well the bike is fantastic. The upper management at Harley needs a kick in the ass. Hopefully they wake up cuz I love my Rocker! ! !

    I just got my 2009 Rocker "C" last weekend. I installed the Vance & Hines Big Radius pipes and a fuel pack / Air Filter kit. WHATTA RUSH! Smoothe, comfortable, and BEAUTIFUL! Harley has come a LONG way since the 80's! I am thoroughly impressed and extremely pleased with it thus far!

  • The 2009 Rocker C
    By  (I am an Owner) on Oct 07, 2008

    Well after years of not riding a bike after selling my old 86 Honda Sabre.

    I got the that itch once again to ride in the wind. Yeah I been eyeing that Rocker C scents it came out last year.

    I went up to the local H-D shop last weekend and bought a brand new 2009 Rocker C stage 2 with ...

    It's happy times here in the Lone Star State!
