So the 1st vivid black in Switzerland <br/>Stealth luggage rack<br/>Short HD sissy bar and pad

 

I got mine two months ago, every time I ride, I fall in love with it more and more. love the roar of the M8 engine, i can't believe the power. Enjoy this amazing beast

 

I test drove one, I didn't like the clutch,,, I have cable,,, and the shifting was loud. Otherwise I liked it. I like the motor don't shake so much and has more power for a showroom bike. My problem Is I love chrome. If they made a Special-C , like chrome wheels and so on, I would buy one in a heart beat. I'm happy for all the guys that love them as they are.

 

Maybe a 2014 CVO Road King would suit you better. You can find a really low mileage one for around $21k. Has everything you are looking for plus the 110" motor. This is the direction I was going before the Road King Special came out.

 

I felt exactly the same way when I first test rode an M8 RK. Hated the clutch.

Took an extended test ride on a SGS recently and at first didn't like the clutch. Also didn't like the quiet pipes (Street Cannons).

But I got used to the clutch and exhausts are all personal choice anyway.

I will buy an M8 bike in the coming months as the wide power band of the engine is excellent (not that the Twin Cams weren't) - just have to decide on RKS or SGS.

But will wait to see what 18 offers.....

 

I'm putting CVO style bags on my scooter, and I'm concerned that CVO style bags are a bit close to my 4.5" S&S MK45 slip ons. I don't want to have a melt down. Please post up rear views if you are running 4.5" exhaust on your RKS.

Headed for a meltdown?

 

Aren't the Screaming Eagle muff's 4.5" too? I would think you should be fine.

 

I just installed 4.5 Bassani DNT's and there aren't any issues. CVO bags are the same as the RKS

 

Thanks
2017 Screamin Street Cannon muff's are 4.5"

 

Just joined, first post. Picked this up 3 weeks ago. Had the Stage1 completed last week. So far, it's been a great bike. Couldn't be happier
