Interesting that the Rocket - which is still relatively new - is undergoing a revamp. To my thinking, the only thing this is likely to do is spread the same amount of sales over two variants - 100 Rocket IIIs becomes fifty Rocket IIIs and fifty Rocket Cruisers. Strategically, the company is still not addressing that mid-market 1600 range; offering the Rocket Cruiser doesn't encourage me to buy one as I still want something less big and powerful.
Still, there must be some thinking behind it - I'm just not sure how they work out that a "Cruiserfied" version will increase sales.
Siggy
