I have a feeling this is a style that either grabs you, or it doesn't. Not for me, thanks.

Color has a lot to do with it. I'm usually not a fan, but the front wheel is not as big as some and the fact that it's a Road King instead of the usual bagger appeals to me.

Your Sportster is a better looking bike. BTW I ride a RK. But, to each their own.

Smaller wheel, fat tire on the front and I would dig it.

For me, bikes that look that customized, just don't look right with ape hangers.
