I don't think 14-16 Road Kings have a hydraulic clutch or ABS as standard equipment. None of the Street Glides (FLHX) come standard with ABS, but they do have hydraulic clutches.

Prior to 2017, the only Road Kings with hydraulic clutches were the CVO models.

What is it about ABS and the hydraulic clutch you don’t like? Having a bike with and my previous bike without, I think both upgrades are a significant leap forward.

As mentioned, I don't blame you. Standard Road King it is if you're looking Touring. Cable clutch and no ABS.

So what are the advantages and disadvantages to a hydraulic clutch? I can imagine lever pull is lighter but is there anything that makes it better or worse than a cable activated clutch?
How would you adjust a hydraulic clutch?
