Okay.. So on Friday I found the bike that I think is THE bike!! I have been riding for a little over a year and I'm a very safe and confident rider(aka smart enough to know my limits). I'm 5'7 and 145 and just about 30(if any of that matters I don't know LOL) I fell in LOVE with a Road King! It is a 2007 Screaming Eagle 1800cc. Not at all the bike I thought I would move up to and I wasn't even looking!! The sales guy(of course lol) and everyone that knows me says it's me and I'll be fine but the size and such scares me some... So.... I'm looking for input.... Thoughts! Thanks!!
Also on Queens board but I'm looking to decide soon as they are holding it for me...

 

Is this thread broke?

Buy the RK

 

Are you blonde by any chance ?

 

short legs buy a low seat and enjoy. OH and boots with good grips

 

I have a really long inseam so I can touch flat foot with knees slightly bent. The power and engine size was more of my concern, as well as, I started on a 750 Honda so weight was also a thoght of mine. Until I found this RK I thought I would end up eventually on a Dyna. Thanks for the replies!

 

if it has a 20 inch windsheild swap it fo a 16 inch or youll be forever washing it so you can see through it. I love my RK.

 

ya' can't go wrong with the RK.....unless you want the 'glide.... go with what makes you happy !

 

Will he let you take it out for a ride? Will they rent you a 2011 RK for the day? Many times they'll apply your rental payment to the cost of the purchased bike so its a win-win for both of you. Is the bike a CVO or has an engine upgrade? Also, ask whether the dealer might find you a post-'09 RK Standard or RK Classic for about the same price? The reason is that HD changed the frames that year and there really is a big difference in the ride of the pre- and post- bikes. After you've ridden it, don't wait too long to buy one. RK's are the probably the finest model that HD makes. Of course, I am very biased.

 

I love my new Road King and am very impressed by the handling and quality. You can't go wrong!

 

Buy it!
