Why Buy a RoadKing!

[@kpb96m]

This was the video that made me subscribe. Clear video, great therapeutic engine sound and really nice evening view. I wish you made more of these relaxing ride videos. I felt like I was on the bike.

[@StevyFaux]

I agree. That is one of the things that we are going to get back. I miss the straight up motovlogging and we are going to get back into that as our main gig again. Thank you for being a subscriber and please if there is ever a video you would like to see us do, hit us up!

On my 2nd Road King. The 1st 1996 had 40,000 miles on it when a truck hit me and totaled the bike in 2000. My 2nd a 2003 Road King with 87,000 miles and on the 2nd Chain tensioners. Neither bike caused me grief and never leaked a drop of oil!!! The Road King IS THE Motor-Cycle

[@bobmohr4952]

I have a 2014 Road King with Daymaker headlight and passing lamps. LED taillight, detachable tour pack(which I only use on trips) I had a 2005 Road King Classic loved it but I always wanted a hard bag that I could lock valuables in and not be concerned about some weasel grabbing something. Also the rider changes that they did on the 2014-2016 Rushmore editions was well done along with the 103 high output engine quite a difference from the 1450 cc I had on the Classic. Love a Road King!!

[@StevyFaux]

Bob Mohr I like the looks of the classic bags but it is nice to be able to lock them. I had a 98 Roadking classic and went to an ultra. Always missed the Roadking and was very happy to go back to one.

[@Crashking14]

Went from a 01 road king classic,to a 14 with hard bags,and I understand what to mean about the difference ..plus I have the 103ho also!

[@dcdell2008]

I would keep the traditional head light and passing lamps as it looks more old school and original--thanks for sharing

[@FreedomRider223]

Steve, I have a 103 RK too mine's 2010. I dunno what year yours is? I swapped the lights for the "daymaker knockoffs". I got the set that changes your passing lights too. The only downside... I have a an extra longer "locomotive" type ring that takes place of the stock chrome headlight ring. When I put this ring on, there doesn't seem to be any way to get the headlight to aim down further.... when you get the lights, there is an inside ring that mounts to your nacelle. Then there is an inside ring that makes the beam adjustable but when you put your collar ring back on (in my case anyway) it sets the beam back to square, so the beam ends up too high. I mean it's ok. The lights are so bright that everything gets illuminated. I mean overhead street signs, everything! And the colour of the light is way better too. It's white, not yellow. The bad thing is that lots of cars flash me with no high beams on or passing lights. I think this is because I can't get it to aim down enough.

[@StevyFaux]

That’s good to know, thank. So the knock offs are brute enough? That’s the only thing I was worried about was that I would buy them and they wouldn’t be much brighter than the stock lights.

[@FreedomRider223]

@@StevyFaux way brighter! Id say 60% brighter at least. What I noticed most was the street signs, even overhead, they are lit up like they had their own lights on them! The beam seems to be much wider and taller overall. Some will try to sell you on those lights that when you coner, they light up into the corner.. More to go wrong. The knock offs are always lighting up the corners not just when you turn. -- Especially with roadkings since we have the passing lights. You put all those on, it's like day time AND they don't run as hot AND they are supposed to last much longer too.

[@StevyFaux]

That’s awesome! I will get a set and give them a try.

[@dmedina6835]

I bought my 2010 FLHR Road King in the fall of 2009. It's approaching 80k miles, and I've loved every single mile of the way. To me the most beautiful part of the bike is the headlight nacelle. Why would you want to cover that up? Nice video. Thanks.

[@roadglide]

I see a whole lot of the road and details in front of me. That’s why I love to ride. To actually see stuff. As for LED’s, put those babies every where you can. Headlight, passing lights, rear bag brake and run lights and turns. Less is more. Perfect for me too.

[@StevyFaux]

I agree. And sense this video I have put Hogwork led headlight and passing lamps on and they are amazing.

[@harleybrown9834]

Hi, I'm new to your channel but I agree with your comments on the roadking. I bought my first HD in 2001 and it was a RK. I had that gorgeous bike 14 years and I never stopped looking at her and thinking what a great bike she was. I bought a streetglide in 2015 though and then a roadglide ultra cvo a few years after that. It's a great bike but I miss the simplicity of the RK. I'm talking to the dealership about a 19 RKS 114 the last few weeks. Can't wait

[@StevyFaux]

Harley Brown that’s the same thing I felt. I had the ultra classic for 11 years but I missed....dare I say longed? (like you said) the simplicity of the King. If I buy a new Harley it will be another Roadking! Thanks for watching!

[@StevyFaux]

That’s great to know! Any idea what brand he got? There are like a hundred of them..

[@Wooley689]

He said they are called Sunpie, he's been very happy with them. A dealer or shop will have to install because LED and they have to flash the system to recognize them. He had his done so the spot lights and high beam all stay on when you switch to high beam. Your regular stock lights can be done the same so high and spots stay on at same time, but dealer has to do that as well, some states won't allow that so have to be sure in your state. Watching the video again, do you know that the long road stretch riding, it looks more like a painting then real life? Thought that was pretty cool.

It happens all the time around here with the hills. If your higher than the other pers and still going up the hill it seams like your high beams are on until you level out. Happens in cars pickups trucks doesn’t matter some people don’t realize what’s happening and just assume your brights are on. People who live around here know that. If you watch the video again I am cresting a hill and the bike is above the guy coming at me so me being above the guy when my bike starts coming down the hill the headlight shines into his car, that’s when he brights me and assumes my high beam is on. That’s why I said the guy isn’t very smart. My headlight is adjusted.
