Didn't plan on this... but a 2007 RK custom became my 10th HD today. No windshield, and no fairing or radio, just pure goodness. Mine came with 16" apes and color matched hard bags for the Suede Blue Pearl paint and a lot of chrome add ons with a set of Rhinehart's on it. I rode a very special limited edition 1200 anniversary edition 2 hours away and just thought I'd 'stop by' a HD dealership and get a cup of coffee... 3 hours later I left with my 10th Harley... this amazing RK and traded away the Sporty. Years ago, I traded in a 1998 RK in with 153k on it... RKs are just pure HD...like you said in the vid... it will never feel dated.

Joined a club (BCHOGS) and have made great friends. Learned to ride in the winter as a member of the Polar Bears. That bike has made the greatest change in my life - a passion I haven’t had for decades. “The Beast” has 27k mi and runs like I just bought it from the dealer yesterday - and I wouldn’t trade it for a 103 or 110.

I upgraded from a 06 RK (stock) to a 18 RK (stock) well both had/have slip ons, but no tune, no intake. the 107, imo, makes the bike a safer bike to ride. Power to pass when you want and it really helps out if riding 2 up, too. The 06 was fun to ride and a great bike (also my first HD) but overall the 18 with the 107 is a better bike - except for the heat from the cat. planning on a cooling kit or something to fix that in, hopefully in the near future. I may also do some ohlins suspension.

I road bikes for 30+ years with 15 of them as a motor cop. The Road Kjng Police was my favorite police bike by far. The BMW RT-P was also excellent, but the RKP had a wonderfully low center of balance. In competition cops would often slice the rubber stops that limit the distance of travel for your handlebars so they could remove or replace them to reduce the turning radius. I have a Yamaha V-Star 650 that is just like the Road King but much lighter and with sexier lines. If it had a 6th gear it would be the perfect bike. I replaced the rear seat with a rack and added a back rest, and it is incredibly comfortable!

I didn't know not all classics had cruise, but mine has cruise control. There are a few things I'd like to do to it to make it better. A previous owner put straight pipes on, I'd like to put some good Mufflers on. I'd like a backrest, I'm an older guy that would help me a lot. I cannot complain about it very much at all. It's a great bike. I just wish it was more time to ride it. I live in Indiana so we have crappy weather a lot. Is maroon and has ghost flames in the paint. And I have over 70,000 miles on it.

I’ve owned 3 Harleys. I had a Heritage Softail. The positives of that bike is it has a classic look which reminds me of the Road King, but is a little lighter and more nimble, great for newer (not beginner) riders. Then, I had the Road King. Loved it! Took trips out of state on it several times. I would like to still have it, but we decided to take more trips out of state and even across the country. At that point, we wanted more luggage space and I liked the idea of having navigation. That’s when I bought the Limited I have now. I’ve loved them all. A newer rider wouldn’t want to start on a Limited though.

I know that this is an old video, but I used to ride a buddies Road King. We go out riding him on his Electra Limited and me on the Road King Police and it was a wonderful bike.

Completely agree. These Road Kings focus on doing one thing. Riding. I hate the bat fairing and radios all the rubbish that is not required to actually ride. With Reinharts they sound fantastic and with the shorter wheel base handle really well. My bike is a 2017 Indian Springfield which is similiar but better two up touring capability. Cheers and stay upright.

I have a 2011 Road King with the 96 motor. Had it for years. Love that bike! I am thinking about getting an Ultra Limited, will keep the Road King too!

Nice video and can’t agree more. I have a 18 Ultra Limited and just picked up 2000 RK classic for actually what you said and getting back to the basics of riding. Be safe

Agreed RK Classic is definition of "more is less" in motorcycle world. To each his own. For me its a 04 RK Classic set up for me. Be safe out there.

I have a 2010 FLHRC and love it. Only thing I hate is the reflection on the windscreen at night from speedo. Very distracting. 128000 kilometres and still going strong.

I have 95 RK with 61k miles and O3 CVO RK with 22Kiles. Love both. I never could understand the fairing thing with sterio and all the buttons.

It just depends on what you like. I walked right past new Ultras and Road Kings to special order my Fatboy Lo in 2012 and I had a good down payment and good credit, I could ride out on anything they had.

The 2021 883 Iron has manual cruise control which is just a screw that cash be tighten down with your hand that keeps the throttle in position but don't expect it to release unless u loosen it..

"It's a big bike." That's funny. I decided it was too small for me, and went with a Stratoliner instead. And still had to move the foots controls forward. I love them and their look though.

I have a 2007 Road King Classic and think it's the best motorcycle I have ever ridden. I've been riding motorcycles for over fifty years and plan on riding until I die.
