Default 94 Road King

Hello all, just upped my game from a 2012 Forty Eight, to a 94 Road King! Can't say enough about the ride and felt power with the throttle. Wanted to relocate my license plate, but also wanted to keep it classic...any suggestions?

Try a lay down license plate holder for a better look. They make them to mount above tail light and also below.

Thanks! Yessir...I'll be sure to treat her right! Question about the dash lights...ever found a way to brighten them up? Suppose its another side effect of it sitting outside for so many years, but the display is dim as can be!

A friend of mine did just that with some super bright LEDs.
He did it on a softail but I see no reason you can't do the same thing on a RK.

74 LED Bulb - 1 SMD LED - Miniature Wedge Base Natural White

these are what I used on my 1996 Road King and 1996 Sportster ... they make a big difference ... they are polarity sensitive so you may need to turn them over to get them to light ... they are from Super Bright Leds ... and only 1.85 each

I don't believe it's available anymore except on eBay or swap meets but I have a curved and slanted plate holder that looks pretty cool. It's die cast so it looks more than just a flat plate.
