Thanks everyone. One of the problems i have is visualizing, since my bike color/scheme is very rare.I've only seen 1 other rkc like mine.And what looks like black on my bike is actually depending on the light appears dk green w/burgundy flakes especially the fender.

I vote 21's for sure.....

I also think fat spokes and a thin whitewall tire look awesome on a classic.

Either or, it will look a lot nicer with a custom wheel. I do like the contrast, they do run more $ though, from what I have seen. +1 on HogPro they are awesome, bought from them, great service.
Good Luck, you will make the right decision, that is why we call it customizing.

Beautiful King you have. Can't wait to see some "after" pics.
+1. I totally agree with your take on contrast cut wheels. Chrome is the way to go. Both the 18" and 21" wheel would look good. I personally like the 21" up front on touring bikes, though.
