I'm 66yo and ride a Road King. It's an '04 with the 95 inch big bore kit, SE 203 cams, SE hybrid cam plate with high volume oil pump, SE air cleaner with back plate removed, and Kerker slip ons. Mine does have cruise control, which is handy as heck. Living in Western Colorado I have the opportunity to ride the Rockies all the time. My favorite "thing" about the RK Classic is the vibe. I usually ride without the windshield, but I have a Freedom Shield for when the weather cools off. I'm sure there are better bikes out there, there's a lot of equipment this bike does not have, but this bike has soul and I love that about it. Sign me, "Vibin' on the chug."

[@BoDean52]

I totally agree and I think "soul" is a perfect word!

[@commonsenseisntcommon5338]

I just ran across this….I’m a little over 50 & finally bought my first bike after 10 years of talking myself out of it for practical reasons. I bought a 2009 Road King Classic…just yesterday I was trying to describe to the wife why I love it and how it relaxes me and the free feeling that comes from riding this bike. The look I got made me feel like a little kid….Ran across your video today and I realize you know EXACTLY what I was trying to portray. Great video!

[@BoDean52]

Thanks so much and congrats on your KING. Hard to explain unless you have one isn't it?

Spot on truth!

My brother, I cried twice in 20 years.... once when I dog passed away and second when I had to sell my 2003 Road King 100 Anniversary Ed.... broke my heart man. But I'm in the market for another bike and YES it will be another Road King! Awesome video!!!

Just hearing you had to sell that bike is almost making me cry. I honestly don’t believe I could sell my road king ever

[@Roadglide117]

Funny you said that. I had a 21 road glide I just traded a few days ago for a new road king. The road king has always been my favorite harley, and like you said, everyone lately is on a road glide of street glide. Really like the new road king!

[@daveb8457]

The "King" has a cool factor that few can approach. It can be seen and felt.

[@dumbcat]

i love the simplicity of my older road king classic. i hate wind screens and stereos on motorcycles. if you are riding in a straight line at high speed down a freeway you are doing motorcycles wrong imo. my perfect ride is heading for the twisties far away from cars with the wind in my face, slipping the bike into corners and blasting out with that low end grunt while listening to the sweet motor rumble. a chromed out road king is the most beautiful motorcycle harley ever made too

[@BoDean52]

I totally agree and the main reason I love this bike. Rarely have windscreen on it just feels right and motorcycle pure!

[@Road_Rash]

I sold a 2008 CVO Electra Glide & kept the 99 Road King...she ain't got all the bells & whistles of the CVO, but she's an awesome classic that gets you back to the basics of motorcycles without all the distracting extras...

My 2009 looks exactly like yours, good sir. Mine is a 96 Cubic Inch with cruise control, ABS, and Factory speakers. I'll ride it anywhere in the country. I've owned it for many years, and I'm ~ 66 and still enjoy it.

[@BoDean52]

Nice!

[@bobcorio5145]

I also have 2 bikes, my wife do trips we take our ultra classic. But when I ride it is on my road king standard. I love the feel of it. Just like you state. The ultra will get traded, but the road king will stay forever.

[@BoDean52]

Same here Bob.....the Road King is a lifer for me as well!

[@roadkingrider6532]

I agree 💯! I won’t ever sell my Road King. Everyone around here ride the glides. Just my opinion but for me there is no comparison. The Road King has so much more character and I feel is more in line with what the heart of Harley is. If you look back in the history of what Harley was and compare that to what you can buy today, and you want to get as close to the heart of Harley….you have to get the Road King! It’s a amazing bike.

[@BoDean52]

Totally agree and I am lucky to have both. If one had to go, it would not be the King

[@migueltodd73]

Thanks for doing this video and your comments on the Road King. I’m 62 now and I have and old CHP road king. It’s the only bike I’ve ever owned. Sometimes I think I want something a little more modern like your newer bike. But then I say to myself nah, this is just fine for me.👍🏽

[@BoDean52]

If I could just have one of my bikes, it would definitely be the road king

[@jdreyno1958]

I was at Athens, Ohio Harley Davidson yesterday and they had a 2000 Road King Classic sitting out front. I thought of you and Duke. It's not in the works for me to have a second bike, but that looked like a fun bike to ride. Stay safe and thanks for another great video.

[@BoDean52]

Thanks Jim and sounds silly but I would buy an old used Road King again.

[@78joelee]

I have a 2002 Road King Classic Screaming Eagle, it's my first Harley I am keeping it forever! It's been kept up so well and it's gorgeous. I love it. I will definitely buy another Harley down the road as well.

[@BoDean52]

That awesome and I am with you, keep our Road Kings forever

[@kenharding8181]

I ride a 1999 Road King Classic. First year of the twin cams on touring bikes. I live 20 minutes from Weirs Beach in NH, so naturally I dropped by the Laconia rally a couple times last week. On Sunday I parked on the strip among the sea of Harleys, many newer ones and all sweet machines, but as I approached my Road King, it just stood out like a sore thumb with the big old chrome front end among all the fairings. They were designed to look and feel old school and they do exactly that. Not a better or worse thing in comparison to its cousins, just different. I knew exactly what you were talking about when you were riding. It's a unique experience.

[@BoDean52]

that would be cool to live that close and for me our big ole headlights stick out to me!

[@johnnielsen5076]

Love where you head is at my friend...my Springer classic is for roaming the sunshine...my glide is a ground pounder. Love 'em both but for different reasons.

[@BoDean52]

"Ground Pounder"....love it!

[@christopherrobinson767]

The Road King without the wind screen is the most classic and iconic Harley look out there. IMO. I absolutely love mine. 2012 RK 103ci in Big Blue Pearl paint. I will never get rid of it.

[@BoDean52]

100% agree!

[@mikedaytrips6509]

Been enjoying your videos and now I need to take my 2022 RK for a Ride. I do want to point out that the new RKs have all the electronics, except the radio and GPS screen, including the safty features like anti-locking breaks. She has the sleek classic look that we love about the RK. I added a touring pack from the factory with matching paint. The feeling of riding her has been incredible and comfortable on those long rides.

[@BoDean52]

I love the new Road Kings too...heck if you want radio, bluetooth it. If I was getting another bike and the wife no longer toad with me, it would be a Road King. What color did you get and congrats!

[@vics8873]

After having an Ultra, I went back to a 2011 Road King Classic--103 engine, ABS brakes, standard--and YES, it feels fabulous, like a real Harley. Mustang wide solo seat and aftermarket bars take care of the comfort issue. Happy New Year!

[@BoDean52]

That is awesome. Vic and I just love the rawness of Road Kings, all about the ride

[@robertwalker7922]

I feel the same way about my 2013 Fat Bob. I can pick it out from the crowd wherever I am and it still gives me that rush when I see it.

[@BoDean52]

Exactly...when you know it you know it, right

[@kwlambright]

I traded a 2000 road king when I got my Electra glide and should have kept it. Older Harley has soul, not as comfortable or fast but was great. Sold a Yamaha royal star back when I bought the road king, almost identical but a v4 and I wanted a Harley. Regretted that more and bought it back a few years later when the guy never changed the title and messed it up. It still sits in my garage in some sort of work being done to it. Only other bike I regretted selling was a turbo Yamaha in the 90s that I always wanted but was flipping motorcycles back then

[@BoDean52]

This one will be a keeper for me and just wish I could get more lol...

I have a 2000 RKC I bought brand new. Bike runs like a champ. Love the bike. I did the S&S cam chest kit upgrade. Best bike I have ever owned. I also have a 2023 Indian Pursuit Dark Horse Premium that I absolutely love. And a 2003 Victory V92C. I love all my bikes.

[@BoDean52]

You have a grade Motorcycle stable. What’s your suggestion for replacing my cam tensioners?

[@earlkozak6538]

@BoDean52 S&S makes a complete kit for the twin cam. It has everything you need to do the upgrade to hydraulic cam chain tensioner. New cams. Bearings. Oil pump for a 96-inch engine that has an extra scavenge stage. Forged support plate. Adjustable push rods. Gaskets. I mean everything. It all fits great. It's what my dealer recommended and installed. You won't go wrong. It's expensive, mind you. But when you're going 75MPH down the road, you'll be glad you spent the money.

[@genekelley7579]

🛑🛑 I had a CVO Roadking, and I now own a CVO Ultra Limited, there are many differences between the 2 bikes. The Ultra (The Geezer Glide) does everything really well..Comfort, Ride, Power, and Room …although the Roadking lacks in those areas; the one the thing the Roadking can do better than the Ultra is COOL!!!! 😀👍💯

[@BoDean52]

You are exactly right Gene!

[@PMCraig]

Gene, I’m surprised you listed “room” as an area where the Ultra out does the Road King. I have a ‘07 Road King (stock seat) and I’ve test rode an Ultra (stock seat). I felt like my Road King had more room, the Ultra felt like I was pushed forward towards the tank and I felt cramped. I’m 6’3” with a 36” inseam so I need my legroom. Obviously you can get aftermarket seats but out of the box I feel the Road King is the roomier of the two… Totally agree with your “Cool” comment! 👍

[@genekelley7579]

@@PMCraig I had an 2007 CVO Cobalt Blue Roadking. That bike was “Really Cool” and brought crowds around it wherever it took me. 💯 I really hated to sell that bike, but a guy at a bike night offered to buy it from me for my “Stupid Crazy Price”. 🤪💯💰, so I sold it. I mentioned “Room”. My reference meant “storage space”, not “operator room”. The Roadking I had, and this Ultra Limited I have now, to me seem to have the same amount of Operator Space. I had the Driver Pylon Backrest in my Roadking, and have the Pylon Backrest in my CVO Ultra Limited, now. The space on both bikes seem the same to me (I’m 6’0, 210 LBS)(Both Bikes never had a Aftermarket Seat on them. They both kept their CVO seats from the day I purchased them) The Roadking is a Great Bar Hopper, and definitely has the “Cool Factor”, but as I get older, take longer rides, ride 2 up more and more, and like the sounds of my music, heated seats and grips; I think my CVO Ultra Limited (The Geezer Glide) suites me better for what I’m into now a days 😂👍. Thank You For The Reply 💯👍

[@jackvanderpool4288]

Man I totally 100% agree with you. I traded in a 2010 heritage on a 2016 CVO Limited and although it completely blows it away on luxury items, I totally miss the feeling of the vintage. After a couple years I had to add a 2013 Road King Classic to my stable to get that feeling back. There is just something about the simplicity of the bike along with still having a pretty decent ride you cannot beat, especially without the windshield.

[@BoDean52]

That 2013 must be awesome! I’m gonna try to sneak out to ride tomorrow with 45° here in Michigan and this is the one time I’m probably gonna put the windshield back on

[@sportyonetaubert5923]

First thanks for a great video! Mr Bo sounds like you and I both enjoy riding mostly for the endorphins...that feeling of relaxation, peace and contentment with nothing to prove. Others ride more for adrenaline...excitement, danger and hurry and that's OK too, just not for me. Some ask what do you mean a Harley has soul? Others say there is no such thing. I would explain it's the feedback a machine gives to you through sound, vibration, visual beauty, riding position and overall attitude. My Road King seems to effortlessly rumble down the road and that easy gate lets me feel I can just relax and enjoy the ride with no hurry. In today's rush rush lifestyle it's a welcome relief. The other thing I realized about a Road King that is pretty unique. If you ride without the windshield like you and I like to do...from where you sit while riding, 95% of what you see is painted or chromed steel. Very few rides can say that. And that contributes to that feeling of a solid, honest and classic experience. 👌

The Road King was fast, had the 114 Milwaukee engine that I changed out the air cleaner and added neighbor hater Cobra pipes, also had to buy a tuner by V&H.

I get that there’s nothing like riding a king. No radio nothing but the bike and road

[@christopherleecowan]

I will never get rid of my 95th anniversary road classic!

[@BoDean52]

I totally get that my road king classic will never go away

[@NVARider]

A great looking bike for sure.

[@BoDean52]

Thanks brother

[@dougfisher1885]

I got a 03 classic and I'll keep my bike until God brings me home its all stock white walls and all gonna keep it that way I love my road king

[@BoDean52]

Same here Doug, bury me on it

[@Atlasmehd]

just traded my 2000 RKC for a 21 ultra. get you some MM injectors off ebay, get them rebuilt and set them aside. they are hard to find. the fuel pump will cross over to a walbro at NAPA. and the fuel line disco's are still avail at the dealer. dont go with aftermarket. i miss it but then i go out on the ultra and im good. its a diff beast aint it? not as refined and i can sling that 88TC all over the road.

[@BoDean52]

Great advice on the road king and you’re gonna love the ultra

[@fenderben]

I love mine too. 👍🏽👍🏽

[@BoDean52]

they are great bikes, what year is yours?

Thanks my man!

Wao! 1:21 that sound with🎧😨

[@BoDean52]

I love the roar of the king!

[@rodneybarcus2233]

I don’t get the adv bike trend. Most of those people you’ll find on their adv bikes parked in front of a Starbucks anyway. I went way different than my 2019 ultra and got a 2007 Fjr. The mechanicals on the Fjr are still more advanced and it’s a 2007. Sure I like the Harley but I only take it out for those longer day rides and two up rides. Stay safe

[@BoDean52]

Agree and I was going to do a video on that....it would sure get people fired up

[@rodneybarcus2233]

@@BoDean52 I hate to say it but it’s mostly true. I believe the adv thing is a trend that was inspired by the movie long way around and its sequel. What’s wrong with a good dirt bike or a dual sport. They cost a lot less and are easy to pick up when you drop them.

[@noregrets5221]

That's why I'm called no regrets

[@rayf534]

Ride what you love ! For the love of riding !! 👍❤✌

[@BoDean52]

AMEN to that!

[@DAWGnROADIE]

Yep. Exactly.

[@bradlozano2571]

There is just something about the Twin Cam Bikes the way they ride and the feel....Even thought the M8's are more modern and superior to the Twin Cams....But i perfer the Twin Cams...

[@BoDean52]

So true, it’s a feel

[@TheFuzzman66]

Beautiful riding in Hell! I am in the Detroit area and love that ride!!

[@BoDean52]

Its a favorite of mine for sure

[@bag-of-bones485]

Don't you just love all the view from the front..

[@BoDean52]

So do!

[@lawrencedavidson296]

id love to have a 2000 road king because i can ride and dont need new tec

[@BoDean52]

Many times less technology is so much better

[@there_is_nothing_here]

You know you're old When you think 2000 and are like, how is that a classic? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣then you realize that was 23 years ago

[@BoDean52]

That’s funny, right there and no kidding!

[@jeevees983]

Классный мотоцикл! Я себе взял Harley Davidson Road King Custom 2006... Но он ещё плывет ко мне из США 🙂

[@BoDean52]

Thanks I think! 👍
