2014 Road King
They made some changes. The motor gets higher capacity intake and new cams. Gone is the heat management system where the rear cyclinder cuts out at idle (I least I don't see it in the key features anymore). Saddle bags are a little bigger and have new "one hand" release mechanism. I'm not overly thrilled with the color choices, but the big blue pearl/vivid black looks great. The red one looks okay too. I like the new 10 spoke rims. Overall the 2014 Road King is a winner in my book.

I like the color choices. Just not sure about the red. In some photos it looks great, in others, not so great. Will have to check them all out in person. But I really like those two new colors. Nostalgic.

Also, the front end gets some changes with new steering head/bearings and larger diameter forks.

Shrinking the number of offerings makes for a more profitable company. Losing the Road Glide and RK Classic seems weird. May look to buy a carb model Road King Custom as it is sure to be a a rarity.
