I vote for the road king classic I like the cruise control
and the old school look + you can dress them up and
strip them down what ever your mood is for the day

Oh okay. So I established having a fairing has no significant effect on the view. Now it's a windshield. If it's too tall, those can certainly be removed easily or changed. I see no point in discounting either the SG or RK due to the "view" they both offer.

I'm 6' 4" and don't find the SG cramped at all.

As for the fairing, to suggest that the view is any different from an unfaired bike is simply ridiculous!

Even with an 11" windshield I look over the fairing and see exactly what everone else sees!!!!

Rent both the road queen and street glide for a weekend, ride the EXACT same route (1000 miles round trip, 500 miles each day) then rent the road glide and make the same trip as the first two, but instead of stopping at 500 miles ride on, for another 100-200 miles the first day, I bet the OL will not want you to stop when you reach the 1000 miles the second day early.
