Looking at 2 road king classics. One is a 05 with 12,000 miles for 9500. The other a 99 with 26,000 miles for 7. Leaning towards taking a better look at the 05. I'm not sure but thought I read there was some frame issues with the 05. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

If they are injected bikes ... 05 all the way!!!!

 

In 02 HD went to a beefier 1" axle swing arm from the 3/4". I upgraded my 01 Road King swing arm after it cracked.

 

Don't buy anything with Magneti Mirelli Fuel INFECTION!!

 

Sounds like a great price on both, I personally would go with the 05. I have an 04 RKC and love it

 

That bites !! Just paid $9500.00 for my 01 RK with 10,000 miles, it did have EVERYTHING chromed. I'm not a huge fan of the chrome, but I figured he must have taken care of it ? Probably hiding where he laid it down, LoL.


Let us know what you go with....PICTURES !!

 

Thanks for the replies. I'm gonna go take a better look and ride on the 05. I'm most likely gonna have to sell my sporty to pull it off which I'm bummed about. But I'll see how it pans out.

 

I have an '04 that I'd consider a sporty plus some cash on (but honestly I'll likely lowball your trade :> )

 

Nice Ethan, lol. My sports pretty sick, you might have to give me some cash.
