Agreed! That is really the only two toned RK I like (though the white/grey one is pretty sharp too) Unfortunately, it's not offered for the '09s. And it seems like if I'm going to get a touring bike, I should get one of the new one's, as I've heard that there is a marked improvement in how they ride. But, if I found a mint condition 2008 with the white/black combo and ABS breaks, I would seriously have to consider it.
As it stands now, I would likely get the "flame blue pearl" or maybe the ol' classic, black.

Yes, ABS option is another very attractive of the RK... forgot to mention that.

regards,
Drew

At this point, the Ultra is a little too much for me. I like the looks of the RG, but am just not into fairings, at this point. I entertained the idea of getting a SG, for a short time, but really prefer the leaner look of the RKC.

Wouldn't it look even better parked in your driveway???
You know you want it!!

A guy I know loves his too. Said best move he ever made. My softail works pretty good for my trips around the Black Hills though, 50-200 mile day trips.
I'm sure the King would too though.
Not much into straight line interstate ridin'. Kinda boring..
