New Road King from Eau Claire, Wis
Hello everyone, name is Timm and grew up in Wisconsin ... age is lower to mid 50's ... I went to school in Wisconsin so please don't correct my spelling errors ... its the way I was taught!!!
I did 22 years in the Air Force spending time up in Minot ND and then 18 years at Vandenberg AFB just nort of Santa Barbara, Cal.
Married ... got daughter and grandkid living with us for the time being. Started out on a TS50 Suzuki, then 360 Honda until the cops took it away from me.
Most recently after getting back into riding ... I had a 2005 Yamaha V-Star 1100 and loved it.
This fall I took a couple of spins on the new street glides ... nice rides but I am not into the faring thing yet ... I have always like the road king, fat boys or heritage softtails.
Well ... while checking out craigs list for the local area ... I found a 2013 Road King with 4000 miles on it priced to my liking ... it has Vance and Hines 2-1 pro pipe and stage one intake, riders backrest and some other things done to it.
Next spring I plan on doing beach bars and chroming out the hand controls. I do hope I will be able to bend your ears for some help ... I did every bit of work on my Star and felt comfortable doing it but this road king is all new to me ... looking forward to reading and learning all I can here. Timm
