This is my first Road King, Road King Special to be precise.

I really like the versatility and how it handles. Road King as a name tells a lot of this bike. I like it the way it is now, but will continue to improve it with black and white theme. There might be an truth that once you go Road King...

I always wanted one, and I'm glad I got it.

I agree . rkc are the most beautiful hds...

My first Harley was a FLHR, and I'll never sell it. But its my summer bike. I'd never be without a bike with a fairing.
