2002 Firefighter Road King.. not a 'Classic', but I think it meets the intent of turning a 'new' RK into a 'retro' RK. She's had a bit of motor work done.. 95", gear drive cams, flowed heads, V&H true duals with SE slip ons and fishtails. She's putting out right at 95HP & 100TQ at the rear wheels - with reliability being a must when I built the motor. 1" shorter Progressive 440s out back and stock length Progressive fork springs up front made a big difference in the way she handles.

 

That's a georgeous King Chris. How do you feel about the braking with the single front rotor. I really like the clean look without the right side brake.

 

Nice looking bike! Well done.

 

I love your bags...their from B&B? I wonder if they can fit on a flhr??

 

Congratulations. Very very nice bike

 

More about this bike please, rotors, wheels, handlebars, etc...

 

Finally added the Caddy tail lights...and took the time to load up some pics.

 

Razor....the bike looks crazy-sweet with those lights! Gawd....I hope you're still not trying to sell it, are you?

 

OPINIONS PLEASE: Friends, way back when I bought my bike it had the old-style visors on the headlights, front and rear signals. I changed them to the newer style visors a couple years later, but everytime I see another RK Classic with the older style visors I get a bit nostalgic and think about changing them back. Both look good on our Classic's but I'm thinking again about winter projects. Please share your opinion on likes/dislikes of either option. The first photo is of the old-style visors (around 2004), the second is what the bike looks like now (2009).

Thanks -W.

 

Well, in spite of some interest from that old ad I put in the classifieds. Right now I think she stays.

AS for visors, I like 'em both. I went with just the H/L only in the new style.

How's this for a pair of "classics"?
