After 37 years of riding many different size, types and styles of motorcycles, I find the Rocket to be a very good bike for an 800 pound 67 inch wheelbase cruiser. And that is what it is. I also ride a 2001 Dyna Low Rider. I can take the same corners, curves, on-ramps and off-ramps at the same speed as the Rock without dragging any pegs or active countersteering. Try riding a shorter, lighter bike and then hop on the Rock and you'll see what I mean.
