Roadking Modifications….. For now!!

[@Supermankev2001]

I put the sun pie lights on my ElectraGlide Classic LOVE THEM they are so bright had them now for 3 years SO bright I figured for the cost I can change them many times compared to HD prices. I so love Road Kings.LED signals are a must Ride safe

Gorgeous bike man very well put together with the detail, love it!

I agree 100% on the chrome forks. No idea why HD do the aluminum as it looks crap.

Gorgeous bike. Yep. Thats where I am headed next!

[@tomswenson4447]

Great video... gave me some ideas for my RK. Hope to get mine out for a short drive... 60's!!! Well, for one day, but I'll take it in early March.

[@StevyFaux]

Thank you! That is why we do it. Hoping to ride this weekend also.

[@RedbeardsAdventures405]

I have a friend who, as he put it has the Amazon special lights, says they are great, they are just as bright from what I can tell when we went for a ride. You really have a nice bike brother. that's my favorite paint job for 2016!

[@StevyFaux]

Thank you! I will have to get some ordered.

[@richcanfield1387]

This bike had your name on it when you came upon it! Perfect....The former owner did it up right! You lucky stiff!

[@StevyFaux]

It was actually put together by our local Harley shop and sold to the first owner the way I bought it. Either way I conceder myself luck to find it this way! 👍

[@dmedina6835]

Omg my bike is slipped streamed out with 16 bars I got the pointed version with pointed crash bar and megaphone muffler! Love your style brother I cleared all my lights and my brake light strobes - and have a cvo suade and leather seat - I did get the Harley tank center trim for the tank to black it out and added the cvo gauge with speedo - love ur whip!

[@StevyFaux]

D Medina thank you very much! I have seen the pointed crash bars before. Very cool!

[@colinmanion4988]

I have the Ciro light fillers and bag Bezels and there really make you more visible and look great. I have a new 2020 RKing with a heap of extras and put New ceramic Coated headers, High flow air cleaner and throttle body, Screaming Eagle Mapping, vance and Hines slip ons and a Stage 2 Torque cam...Believe me it rips, getting 110 foot pound torque. Also put the Tall Boy seat, much more room for me, Kuryakyn Highway pegs, ISO Grips. chrome this and that etc etc...The King does it all

[@StevyFaux]

That’s one of the best things about Harley’s. They way you can make them your own. I have heard that the cam makes a big difference with the M8. The Roadking is the best of all worlds.

[@colinmanion4988]

@@StevyFaux Yes the Stage 2 Torque Cam is amazing, don't do Power cam unless you just want power at higher rpm, down here speed limit is 100kph so need lower power for passing etc

[@StevyFaux]

I have kicked around getting the Ciro bag blades. I have a ciro phone mount and love it. My wife has a ciro phone mount and highway peg clamps. They have great products.

[@colinmanion4988]

@@StevyFaux Yep I also got the Ciro phone mount....very good

[@roadkingrichard4269]

Love the Road Kings!

[@edredBryan]

Great looking RK...blue is my favorite color & those chrome fork covers make an awesome difference. I recently came across a 2005 Road King that I really like but from I've read that year still had the cam tensioner problems. My reading says as of 2011 and forward that problem was resolved. Any advice for buying an older Road King...I need to start back that far so I can afford one (smile). Ride safe. Be well.

[@StevyFaux]

E. Conway I had an 06 ultra for 11 years. Never had cam tensioner problems. But when I bought it the put the hydraulic tensioners on it. The cam tensioners aren’t that bad to fix, I think it’s like 600 bucks maybe, the problem is if you don’t catch it right away it takes out the cam bearings. I think that gets expensive. But if your going to go new make sure you get the Rushmore frame. That makes a big difference. Nothing wrong with buying used he’ll Harley’s run forever. But be patient and buy the one that has the mods done that you like. That will save a bunch of money. Handlebars and pipes are expensive and finding one that some already put the money into just gives you more money for other stuff. Thanks for watching. Let me know if I can help or if you have any other questions.

[@edredBryan]

@@StevyFaux , Thanks a million for the reply. Peace.

[@jeffreynye3019]

What are floating rotors?

[@StevyFaux]

Jeffrey Nye they at open or cut out in the middle so you can see through them so you can see more of the wheel.

[@russmode]

Get the 05, great prices, if it hasn't been fixed already, get it done, it will be good for at least 100k miles, if cared for correctly, done on my 05, 65k miles. Purrs like a tiger...

[@bodieb316]

I think the bike looks great!! My next bike will be a Road King, I'm just debating on whether to get the special, or just throw a few customizations on the standard.

[@StevyFaux]

M Brown both are awesome. I just depends if you want to do a bunch to it or if you want most of it done already. You don’t really have a lot of choices with the special other than blacked out.

[@bodieb316]

@@StevyFaux yah, I like the blacked out look, but...the price is about 1k-2k difference. 2 years will go by fast! By then I'll make up my mind. I really like yours too.

[@StevyFaux]

M Brown you’ve got time to think. I like having options. But if you are going to go blacked out the special is all but done out of the box. I’m sure the decision will just come to you.

[@bodieb316]

@@StevyFaux when I look at yours, I kind of like a little chrome too. It was because of your bike that I am having a hard decision of going special or not. I think yours is the 103 correct? I've heard the 107 motor is better for Modz then the 114

[@StevyFaux]

Yes mine is a 103. I did hav a Harley tech tell me today that if your going to go M8 get a 2020 cause they finally figured out the oil pump.

[@TeensierPython]

I don’t understand the Road King. From a marketing standpoint. You can get a big bagger with some wind protection for “better” touring. You can get a soft tail with similar bags for slightly less money with a lighter; possibly more nimble chassis. All that being said I almost just traded my Fat Bob for a ‘21 road king in a black jack paint job that looks absolutely amazing. Edit: the deadwood green also looks fantastic on this bike.

[@StevyFaux]

Thank you for watching. For me I want the Roadking cause I want the touring frame but I won’t want the big fairings or a radio or all the gauges. I want the option of stripping down the bike dealing the wind on my chest and still having the bags that hold 20lbs a piece. I could put a fairing on and still have it removable. You don’t have that option with the Roadglide and Electraglides. I still have the 6 gallon tank and the ride of the touring bike with the ability to feel the wind on a hot day. And they are very nimble and the Roadking is cheaper than the heritage. I’m not saying you should have traded your FatBoy in cause the I personally love the fatboy also. I also like the deadwood green. They have a couple new colors that I really like. Thank you for weighting in. You made some great points. 👍

[@TeensierPython]

@@StevyFaux it’s off season right now. I always forget how much I like the bike I already have until I get back on it. Grass is always greener. The road king speaks to me and in the right color with everything blacked out it’s hard for me to say no. I am a shrimp so the touring bikes get pretty big for me. Never rode one though. I’d probably love it and buy one for sure. I rode my fatbob down the street and turned around. The sales lady thought I didn’t like it. Rode it home that night in a rain storm.

[@StevyFaux]

@@TeensierPython I hear ya. I’m the same way. I want something different until I uncover the one I’ve got. 😂. My wife rides my Roadking so I think you would be fine on one.

It no longer matters. The HD motor company can not just lower prices. We now have access to Harley corporate balance sheets. This motor company in the red by almost 500 million. They are forced to sell bikes with substandard parts, just to generate the "shop-income" in some veil attempt to service some of these loans. This company in such a death spiral, is now only a matter of time before the banks start calling them in on some of these loans.........
