Absolutely.
But it will take several trips.

It definitely doesn’t fit at my house. Bars are to wide and the saddle bags and guard would have to be removed.

that wouldn't keep me from doing it, and it shouldn't keep you. Tell her the trikes going in the basement.

You have never spent a northern winter in a house with an angry woman, have you?

I cut a big *** hole in a wall in my bar, framed it and built a 48"X80" door. NO Problem.

You're not doing it right. Rev it up, dump the clutch, and I guarantee she'll get out of the way....

I've pushed my '04 FLHT through a 36" doorway multiple times. It takes a bit of finesse, and it's obvious that you can't go through without turning the bars back and forth due to the overall width of 39" when the front tire is pointing straight ahead.
FWIW, your limited is slightly narrower the my FLHT.

Road king here...pull the bags off, no guards though. I have to take the highway bar off. Then I can come in at a bit of an angle slightly favoring one side of the opening and lean while turning the bars to get the end just inside the frame then straighten it up while turning the bar back the other way...all the while riding the clutch to keep moving forward...can't do all that and manually push it over the threshold. I have the sequence down pretty good now. As far as the wife bitching about it or getting in the way...I just bring hers in first...problem solved lol. Her sportster goes in or out without even having to turn the bars. You can get it through just gotta want it lol
