Well, I just got back from the dealer and I rode home on........................
A 2007 Road King Classic!
Went to the dealer this morning, talked with the salesman, told him what I was willing to spend, and after offer/ counter offer, I got the Road King for what I think is an OK deal. They wanted $14,995 for the Road King, he came down to $14,000 and gave me $8500 for my bike. So after tax, and all the other junk, it was my bike and $6300. The Road King is in excellent condition with 12,000 miles on the clock. I'll post pics as soon as my daughter can find the cord to our camera so we can down load them.

So, it WAS just fleeting lust!! Love my '07 RKC; yours'll grow on you faster'n you can imagine.
In honor of its humble beginnings [with me]...

Yeah, Patrick, but didn't you ride your Wide Glide on your 4,400 mile trip this summer? One thing to add to the stable, but another to totally cash in ...
Where'd you get the "Road Kill" emblem made ...?

Yeah, I rode the Wide...will always keep it. Bro #4 is currently "bike-less", so he rode my RKC on the trip. Just before we left on the trip, his wife shattered her wrist and it looked like he might have to beg off. I was going to take the King, in that case. But he just stuck around a few extra days for her surgery (great "political" decision), then he and #6 played catch-up to the four of us who left as originally planned. He couldn't ride my Wide, due to an ankle issue.
The RKC was going on the trip, one way or the other. It made a believer out'a him. He's always hated Harleys (us 3 younger bro's just grew up that way), and had never outgrown the opinion. Well, guess who called me a week ago, feeling me out about whether my RKC might be for sale?!?!? I told him I'd find him a nice "fixer" like mine (he's a CAS*, too!)
There's a guy on ebay that sells 'em. They're stick-on, not speed-nut; chromed plastic, not metal...very much like most car emblems today. You can get "Road - ..." King, Queen, Rage, Hog, Kill; also Twin Cam. I think the set was $29. Go to ebay motors, search on "road king emblems" and look for the Lexington, KY seller. Or go to their online store at... http://www.emblemzz.com/Scripts/default.asp
I am taking the RKC on the Hell's Canyon Rally...leaving in about 6 hours.

Sorry guys, been out ridin! Anyway, I'm lovin this bike! Power seems down compared to the SuperGlide, but then it's pullin a lot more weight. Bike is completely stock, so I may "open it up" a little with pipes and intake. But STOCK works well for me.
The ride? Oh my,........... night and day! This thing is a Cadillac..........no...........make that a Rolls Royce! Smooth, and something I never thought I'd have use for, and I find I'm loving it, is the cruise control. This bike has cruise control!
Still waitin for my daughter to find her cord for the camera.................she "thinks she loaned it to her friend".
