RE: why are Harleys so SLOWWWWWWWWW??
I also have a 03 RKC and wish it were faster. I think Harley needs to step up and give us water cooled motors with 100hp+ off the show room floor, not just on the VROD buth the entire lineup.
Every metric cruiser can beat a Harley 0-60, 1/4 mile and top end. Why does it have to be like that? We have the premium brand with the premium pricetag. We should get a bike that we can open the throttle up from time to time and feel that adrenalin kick in.
With all that said I love my bike, the image and the sound. Just want more power.

[sm=lame.gif][sm=lame.gif]This is such a lame post. I can't believe anybody with an ounce of sense would expect a Road King to be some kind of high performance motorcycle. Geeze-maybe you bought the wrong bike dude.
When I roll on my throttle my bike scoots! Can I beat a ricer? -of course not! But thats not why I'm riding on a bike with a detachable tour pak, lol

Mine is fast enough for me. But if you had to look for a reason that they are not rice rocket fast. External push rods (ancient technology but it is part of what makes a Harley IMHO) & a lower revving engine.

This thread looks awful familiar..... oh, here's why: https://www.hdforums.com/m_2325435/tm.htm
You would think the scottsdale poser would've sold that sled by now. It's probably choked by carbon build up from those 3 mile rides every six months.

If a 1985 minivan beats you off the line, somethings wrong with your bike or you don't know how to ride it.

As far as a mini-van beating any bike much aless a HD loaded with mucho torque , thats bull - pure and simple . Somebody needs to coordinate their throttle hand with their clutch hand !
