Default opinion of this road king
I just saw this road king on my local craigs list. Really love the color and look of the bike. What do you think of the bike and the price?

To much $$, I would say around $6,000-$6,500
Better deals out there.
May depend on your location though.

I know if it was mine I wouldn't be selling it for any lower than asking price. Very nice rk.

I think if I found a RK that looked like that for 5-6K I would be putting a 2nd bike in my garage

Damn, thought someone stole my '95 RK for a minute there. I have one just like it. Paid $8500 for it back in 2010, with 18K miles on it at the time. An Ebay auction. Feel like I may have overpaid a bit, but what the heck, there were several other buyers who bid on the auction. I'd offer this guy $7K and see what he says.

I get a lot of compliments on the paint scheme...

Default Taller?
If you 5'11" or taller, you'll like the seat to floorboard reach. HD reduced same for the 1997 model year.

How do you like the ride and handling compared to your street glide? Any problems with the king? Is it grossly underpowered?

I paid 8K for my 97 RK EFI with 27,000 miles (2nd owner), last April. 8K seemed to be the going price at the time, around IL/WI/IN region. If you wait long enough, you can always do better on the price - but then again; late model low mileage Evo's - aren't a dime a dozen any more : (
