Since you truly don't care (yeah right), I won't truly respond. Get rid of all that black chit unless your bike is black. It's past time for a little color coordination among the younger Harley riders.
If you insist on wearing Sidi boots, you might consider switching to the On Road or Adventure Sidis. A little more expensive but more common with Harley riders than the Vertigo.
Try to get a black (or colored) skull cap or do-rag to wear under your Shoei.
Why do you want a Road King, by the way?

And who you calling young? I'm 52. And yes, my Harley WILL be black!

Me I could care less what other people think.
If you feel comfortable that is all that matters.
I wear FF Arai, 3/4 Shoei J-Wing and Half Santa Cruz. I also wear Vanson Mesh in the summer and Langlitz Cascade and Columbia in Spring and summer. Full leather pants and full finger gloves.
Also Mark Paz from ride like a pro West Coast made a really good comment a while back, set up your bike to fit you. Logical but but few people do that first.
And Black is the fastest color.

Funny you should ask. See the other thread I started a day or two ago titled something like "Need Recommendation for a Touring Bike". Short answer - I love the Ninja but the wife hates the small uncomfortable black triangle on the tail pretending to be a seat. So she wants me to get a comfortable touring bike. I like the RK because I'm not a huge fan of the big front fairings, and I like that you can remove the windscreen and make it more sporty looking. Yet you can add a tour pack with the comfy seat back and luggage. Seems like the beast of both worlds.

Well, you're making a good choice with a Road King.
So, you're 52 eh? I knew you were a youngster.
