I have noticed a trend when i compare the touring line. It seems like those of us who choose a RK choose it for life. The SG, RG are mostly fads and have flooded the market, the UC changes hands quite often and usually the ones I see dont have many miles on them and the CVO and Limited are a rich mans toy and due to this demographic dont get to see much road either. Then there is the Road King with its traditional everlasting design, 100% bike just you and the road. Most RK's that I have seen have been tried and proven to be true for miles and miles, it kinda sucks cause I like all of the HD touring line and some are getting a sissy stamp cause of the short-term biker syndrome, and it seems like the drug of choice when it comes to this disorder is the fairing equipped models, come on guys at least keep it until its paid for.

 

Huh????

 

wow, i just don't even know how to respond to this.....

maybe in your area, but i would not say this is true across the board.

 

LOL!
step away from the drugs son....

 

?????

 

Haha...just blowin off some steam. Seems like here in this area everyone I know has traded thier Fatboy, Streetbob, Wide Glide in for a SG or UC and almost have have already sold or traded those in for something else in some cases not even a HD and out of those that I know who started off with a RK still have em.

 

I've gotta admit that I fell under the spell of the Street Glide for a while and even test rode one to get it out of my system. I would like to get a touring bike in the future and I agree that the Road King has a timeless appeal. I rented one for a weekend and enjoyed every minute. If I ever get to the place where I can get a touring bike and still keep my Dyna, it will be a hard choice between a Road King Classic and a Street Glide. They are both beautiful machines.

 

Is this your personal opinion, or is it etched in stone somewhere ??

 

A little bit of opinion and experience here is a tad bid of proof of what I am saying, I see this all the time with riders here.
