Pics please? Where did you end up buying your tires from? Did you stay with Dunlop or go with another brand? Price?

Go to the photoshop forum and have em black out your tires on your pic. Then you'll see your bike with blackwalls.

I feel your pain, I've pondered it before as well. But when I look at the bike with the WWW, I just can't change em, they look to good. Not many bikes can pull it off, but the RKC does it. That's what sets them apart from the rest.

You might kick yourself later......

NO.

By Federal Statutes, Roadking Classic model Harleys are REQUIRED to have ONLY spoked wheels and wide white-wall tires.

Penalties vary by state, but generally figure up to a $50,000 fine and/or 5 years imprisonment.

That information is correct. Blackwalls on Classics have been banned in all 50 states. It is also a violation of man laws, along with no fruit in beer. PS. You don't need a different motorcycle.

I have blackwalls on my Roadking standard, but if I had a Roadking Classic I would have blackwalls on it, too.

And be wanted in 50 states by The Man...
