WHY DID I BUY “THE KING” 22’ ROADKING SPECIAL??? "IDK YET"

[@paulwaldrop]

I bought a 23 Road King Special, in all black, and then dressed it up a bit. Love this ride. Handles phenomenally.

[@ennphotos]

Welcome to the King Club! Great color and looking forward to seeing the build

[@413prototype]

RKS all day long. Congrats and enjoy! I can’t get enough of mine and ride it as much as possible! All black, modern/retro look, plenty of power, comfort, and versatility w/ or w/out a windscreen. I had a Garmin GPS wired to the headlight and have been riding mine all over Italy, France, and beyond. Can’t wait to cruise it through the SW desert when I move back to Vegas in a few yrs. Still haven’t put the windshield on I got, but you will most likely want one for long hwy rides above 60-70. Outstanding performance (power/handling), has the looks I like (turns heads), and none of the extra stuff I don’t care for. Welcome.

[@Aprojeep]

All hail The King.....Congrats Mac!! I had a 20 RKS all blacked out and got rid of it for a 21 RK standard in Crimson and White. I absolutely love it and with all the chrome....it truly is fit for a King.

[@evil_musclemuscled3814]

It's a beauty . I have a 22 RKS and it serves it's purpose on them long rides. The Cadillac fits in every where

[@ace37gus98]

Seriously thinking about trading my street glide for a Road King. Love the look of the king.

[@wolfattack402000]

I put Bassani exhaust AND header pipes on, S&S 3 stage oil pump / cam plate / 465 cam / hydraulic tappets / tappet cuffs / cam chain tensioner, adjustable lifter rods, Thundermax tuner. Now, the stock handlebars suck, I switched it out with 14" spearhead bars (black) and what a difference in ergonomics. I also installed a windshield - well worth it.

[@stevem9766]

Very nice !! I ride a 2019 Silver Road King with after market fairing match color with receiver. I do love it . Can’t wait to see your changes .

[@bear4547]

Welcome to the Roadking family brotha. Excited to see where the king takes ya.

[@mauricejohnson7215]

I have a 2022 RKS. It’s the best of both worlds around town and a quick 500 miles trip. Fun bike I painted it 2017 SRT jeep granite gray with a mild 128. Anything over 500 miles I used the RG.

[@ericdean2525]

I’m on the fence between a King and a Fatboy for my around town, hanging out bike. My RG loves eating miles but she can be a little cumbersome in the city or short trips. Will definitely follow this build while I figure out what’s next as well. Great video!

[@steviefranchize21]

I had the new Fatboy and loved it but definitely prefer my new roadking to it. Just more versatile than the Fatboy but just as sexy and fun.

[@trafficon2wheels]

awesome choice, congrats on your new bike.

[@urbanadventurer5]

Very nice. I just test rode one back to back with a Road Glide and Low Rider ST and instantly fell in love with the Road King. That’s the one for me too. Planning to trade my 23 Sportster S and 22 Kawasaki Versys in for one. Love that thing.

[@jaredbrooks1196]

Iam glad to see the king in the line up and to change it up can't wait to see the build 😮

[@geedubb-q1u]

Very nice. I wish the trikes(we have a 23 Freewheeler, which basically is a 3 wheeled Road King) had that color. I still love ours but there should be more choice.

[@michaeldixon9002]

I changed my speedometer on my road king. To one that has a tac and speedometer don’t regret it at all. One of my favorite upgrades to the bike.

[@henrys5487]

Beautiful bike Get the wind splitter vented windshield and the 7” headlight trim ring

[@seniorp9444]

I have a black one. That was very hard to find in 2022. Funny thing is I found several dealers at the time with green ones but nobody could get a black or plum RKS.

[@RB-tx4mn]

The Road King Special is more than a bar hopper or place to place. I've put 22,000 miles on mine (2021). From Indiana to Montana and back. Indiana to Texas and back. This IS the ultimate touring machine.

[@gynot1357]

I got 2! a 17 and 21 you can do so much, it’s a excellent starting point! Good luck! Can’t wait to see the changes🤙🏼

[@jayd7950]

I’ll definitely be watching this build! I love the king!

[@RidersUnited]

Cant wait to see what you will do to it. I also document my RKS upgrades on my YT channel and it is always great to connect with fellow RK rider. All the best man

[@tombrewer1540]

I’ve owned two Ultra Classics, a Street Glide and an Ultra Limited. Being older, I started to feel the weight of my full bagger…..so, I decided to go with a Road King (2014 with 5200 miles, a barn find) and I could not be happier. This bike is way more fun to ride than my baggers since all I’ve ever owned was a fairing mounted Harley. The visibility is amazing, being lighter makes for a more nimble bike, plenty comfortable and classic looking. Absolutely more regrets for me….love The King!

[@officialmac]

I'm with you!

[@Njroadking]

What type of bars are those ?

[@Grinder101]

I like a road king with a color matched or tinted windshield and chrome spoke rims….that’s sets them off

[@B702K]

Beautiful bike! Congrats!!

[@FXFBS23]

Love the RK. Sold my SG for a Fat Bob. Will buy the RK for the looks, bags and shield when I want to chill on longer rides. Congrats man

[@CLFmoto87]

Your reasoning for not wanting competition between bikes makes perfect sense to me. Road King gang 🔥

[@Playaflydre]

I got a 17 Street Glide and a 16 Freewheeler. Soon as im done with adding a few more pieces to the Freewheeler. Im getting a Road King. Itll be my fast bike. The other two i use to pound miles on

[@rustycornelius8212]

Can’t wait to see what you do keep up the great videos

[@bigdre7998]

Yeah brother definitely looking forward to what you got coming for the King...

[@angelsierra1988]

Please get yourself a removable windshield.... You won't regret it.

[@redrum7818]

I have the same bike and color. Just did a 132 big bore kit on it but waiting on my throttle body from HPi.

[@officialmac]

Nice!

[@2beezavd]

Love the bike, Drop the bags and go short shot exhaust. 2 inch z bars and let him eat.

[@Topp_5]

Oh that bih tuff my boy! Been liking the Kings lately

[@Centralthabiker]

nice bike sir can't wait to see what you do with it

[@Specialkingoftheroad2023]

Bruh I got mine back in February, it came with 16inch handlebars at first I thought I didn’t want them but I commute 100 Miles round trip to work and when I hit that Highway it definitely shows it’s royalty. Like you said is sexy everyone have to turn to look. I’m coming with the FXRT fairing probably and from there I will get crazy that’s the reason I’m taking my time. You enjoy yours and maybe one day we meet and ride together. Be safe be Blessed. Later…

[@officialmac]

Thanks brother. How tall are you referencing the bars

[@Specialkingoftheroad2023]

@@officialmac 16 inches

[@michaelblake339]

Had several HD’s and my ‘16 RK has been the best all around bike

[@bigdre7998]

Those Triple OG Bars might be 🔥🔥🔥🔥.. Yeah some Pull backs 🤔 18" or 20"

[@Patrick-sv8sf]

What bars are those?

[@josephharris2668]

Nice one FAM!

[@Bearedmoonmonster]

Positive vibes to you bra ✊🏿 im buying my first bike in about a month im torn between the king, street glide and that mf shark, I don’t planning on going cross country or anything just back home to Miami, Daytona and around Orlando where I live now it’s a tough decision bra. Boy them road kings nice I’m just thinking about the rain I know I can put audio on it the other 2 bikes have it plus fairing. I love how them kings look tho 🤔

[@ashtonmarrero7932]

[@delandropayne471]

[@marcusturner5291]

[@uckluck]

[@jayjack2768]

Dope! Definitely my next one!

[@reymyla6685]

Spoke to George at Bad Boyz today - I saw the seat under construction - he shipped my CVO backrest today - the cat is out of the bag.....

[@officialmac]

🤣🤣

[@tarheeligy6412]

Will you look into a Fat tire kit?

[@bobbynelson9908]

Can you a 114 Milwaukee 8 on a 2014 road king FLHR with stage 2 v-twin fuel injection

[@officialmac]

Yes but why?

[@1Thirty1]

Thats my next Harley! I cant wait to see what you do with the KING 👑

[@hard2dillwit01]

Nice one.

[@thomaskavney4656]

I have the 2021 road king special all I can say it's a great bike I love it

[@CodyMcDonald89]

awesome stuff!

[@browardc2428]

I put $25k into my Road King Special already and I have guys with street glide and road glides wanting to trade their bikes in for a RKS.

[@jumpingjack4725]

Is that a NEW CVO in black and yellow?

[@officialmac]

No that one is a custom paint

[@davidbasilli2038]

Best color bro!

[@hades3876]

Its a reason why its called the road king because its king plain and simple i have a 06 king and i love mine to death cant go wrong with a king ever

[@mikephillips5886]

Nice bike reminds me of Million dollar Bogans

[@Freedomridingcompany]

Annnd, that's a beautiful bike...

[@mauricejohnson7215]

Look at triple og ram horns bars.

[@stogicide]

Love the name

[@pin75us1]

Are those the stock bars?

[@officialmac]

Yes

[@stephen6157]

👍🏿

[@roadglide1142]

I’d drop a 135 crate motor in it & it would rock and be done .

[@roadglide1142]

I would have had them do that before you left the dealership & it would’ve been under warranty too.

[@bobbynelson9908]

By the way I love your content

[@pfcehernandez]

Ehhh idk man. I could see you better on a breakout. But if you’re happy with the king that’s what matters.

[@BigStrath]

You should name this one Primal.

[@joeyac8535]

122 kit

[@officialmac]

How much power do they make?

[@hermanbrown4786]

Like your shirts, how do I purchase one ?
