Road King or Heritage
#4
This question has been discussed in great length and a new thread is started on this subject almost constantly. The conclusion is get the road king before the trolls show up talking about lean angle and such. If you are comparing a softail to anything else you shouldn't buy a softail. The Softail is a unique ride for unique rider and yes I have owned a 09 RKC and a 11 limited. Tourers don't compare at all to the softails.

The Softail with never ride as good as a touring bike for long trips...despite all the refinements you make or put on it. I turned mine into a bagger with air ride and it rides nice even 2 up and loaded. Just did 2500 miles. But ultimately buy what "fits you". We are same height but I have short inseam and long torso. So no matter what Bagger I get I need ability to lower it so I can touch ground solidly. With all that said, if I was doing it again..and when I do...It'll be a RK CVO.

Here's how I came to my decision.
50% local - 50% highway-- toss up
49% local - 51% highway-- Road King
51% local - 49% highway-- Heritage
I went with the Heritage and don't regret it.
In a couple of years I'm planning on adding perhaps a Street Glide but I can't imagine getting rid of my Heritage.
