Anybody else got a Roadking custom FLHRSI

All Harley engines vibrate to some degree at idle. If you feel the vibration while riding, then something is wrong. If you don't then likely everything is ok. But it is usually the mounts wearing when they are overly jumpy. The exhuast mounts under the bags are part of the mounting system of the engine. Cheap to replace and sometimes they can tame the jumping engine. But some vibration or jumping is just part of the engines personality.

Nice silver one man.
No engine smooths out ok when pick the revs up.
Am thinking would like to fit a set of those fork wind deflectors.
Unfortunately in SA we ride at crazy speeds just to keep up with traffic, and rides just to keep up in a group, speeds of 160km/hr (100mph) is the norm. These bikes are not really intended for that, so I am getting hammered by the wind

2005 flhrsi
Mine is yellow! I fell in love with it when I saw it -the factory pearl with green metal flake. Bought it in 2013 with 5000 original miles on it (now up over 15,500). I've added a few chrome goodies, then had the custom tooled seat made this spring....
I moved up from a 2000 1200 Custom Sporty (rode that for 10 years) and can't believe the difference! The Road King handles so nice - and still has alot of spunk with a Stage 1 kit.

I am surprised nobody has a yellow custom. I'm not much for yellow, but I love it on that bike.
