I also have a 2005 road king, other than the valve seal issue I havent had any problems,except for a broken throttle cable...bike has 30,000 and was bought new.Built Sept 04 deliverd 10/9/05. Brother has an 04 and has had broken belt,bad cam sensor, bad crank sensor..but has 65,000 on it now and wouldnt trade it for all the money....
I picked up my 07 RK a month ago with 13K miles, nice upgrades and mint cond for $11,500. I am VERY happy I'm sure you can find a better deal out there, especially if you are prepared to travel, I flew in from the UK to pick mine up then rode 350 miles down to Tampa where I keep it!
I have a 2005 Roadking classic that i have modified
It is the one bike i tell people i would keep if i had to only have ONE bike
Ive got 25k on my RK and have had zero issues...
It has a stage 1 and Rhinehart true duals.
I put 18" front and rear rims on it and its a dream....
