Road King Vs. Heritage

RE: Road King Vs. Heritage
Amen on the Heritage! I love this bike, had a Dyna before and the difference in vibration at 70 to 75 is hardly noticeable. I love this bike for in town and on the highway, really versatile. I only average around 6000 miles a year, but I love every mile of it.
HEY GEO - I like the pic you posted outside of Vantage! We have some great riding in this state man! I used to love in Tri-Cities and Wenatchee, now in Seattle area. Take care all...

I grew up in Tri-Cities and now live in the Seattle area (Mill Creek). Wife and I are looking to buy property in Dayton and escape the masses in a few years. Drop me an email and will get together and ride. Wife and I are doing the Oyster run this weekend, maybe we can plan to meet somewhere there.

They don't vibrate at idle, they shake at idle.

You are correct, they don't. However they do have an issue with vibration at idle and low RPM.
Touring bikes don't buzz the bars and boards at 70.
Sorry, it was just wide open and I'm on my 2nd cup of coffee.

I'm chiming in.....
Three years ago, I was split between the RK and Heritage. I didn't like the idle shake on the RK, but I also didn't like the 75+ vibration on the Heritage (on the rental). Given that twisties are more to my liking (and more of my skooting), I could live with the 75+ vibration. Now 16.000+ miles later, I am still loving my Heritage choice (04 FLSTCi).
Sometimes, the floor board scrape scares the wifey, but after she hits me in the back of the helmet, I go on, and on, and on, until the next scrape.
