Default Where's the Rocker?

Has anyone seen one at their dealer? Out here, there is a standing explanation re- H-D "waiting until all dealers can get one at the same time" but the rumormill is churning w/ stories about the rear-fender not being strong enough for, uh, more full-figured riders like me. The two that our local dealer has been allocated have already been sold, reportedly, but remain in the status of vapor...no one's seen them that I know. Just wondering if anyone here's heard of anything else....

Take your pick. The fact is that there is no product at this time. Ah, the rumor mill keeps churning.

John 1:14

It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the LORD.
----Abraham Lincoln

Ahhh...sorry 'bout the duplicate thread. Just hadn't heard anything about it for a while and am anxious to see it. Wonder if it will be sold as an '08 or '09? Been hearing a bit of flak about it but AFAIC, I would rather that the MoCo get it right the first time out than wait for recall after recall (and someone potentially getting hurt).

I heard they were renaming the Rocker the Big Foot, because nothing but rumors of sightings.

As I last heard Harley was dealing with some issues and are planning on having production machines out shortly - whatever that means.

Yup they are having some mechanical issues.

Now since they are trying to hurry and fix I would not be one of the first ones to buy one.

Last minute fixes are usally only Band Aids. Let some poor other SOB by one and work out the kinks.

Hold off for a few years.

Shame as I think it's a pretty interesting looking bike. Sure would like to see one in real life.
