Just bought a 2014 roadking, very nice bike, and handles like a dream, I hope Harley brought up their quality control, as I have always road rice bikes thanks

You're screwed. The 2014 Road King is nothing like the rice bikes you've ridden. Don't know if the quality and control is up to your standards or not.
Now why don't you go introduce yourself in the new member's section, and ride the damn bike instead of worrying about it. And if you haven't already noticed the difference in fit and finish over ANYTHING you've ridden in the past, maybe you should give up and go back to it.
Sorry if I sound harsh. Your post struck a nerve for some reason. Most people don't spend that kind of money on something without researching the quality control beforehand.
Sweet dude! Congrats on the new ride. Metrics are really cool bikes too. I've owned quite a few metrics and plan to own another in the near future. Welcome to the HDForum. You might want to also introduce yourself in the touring models forum. A lot of great info there.

Odd first post. But if you are legit I hope you like your bike. I rode ricers when I was younger, all I could afford. I will never go back unless I was looking for a dirt bike.
