Picked mine up

New 2021 Road King Special. I had the dealer add a detachable windshield, detachable sissy bar, and heel shifter. Now I just need highway pegs and some ape hangers. Anyone know how tall I can go without replacing wires/cables?

Great looking King!

I don't have an answer for the bars. I'm still trying to figure out what bars to use on my '21 FLHT. I'd like to know as well what the max height you can go before needing to change to a longer clutch cable(since the moco switched to the cable over hydro).

Installed these $20 eBay mesh vent screens and the $20 Apple Carplay jumper from a guy selling them on FB (67offroad).

Very happy with this $40 day!!

Do you have a link for those screens or seller name on eBay?

Got happy about the car play jumper but I see it doesn’t work on CVO models or any radio flashed for WHIM, bummer

These are the exact ones I bought. They're not "pre bent" like the $80 Klockwerks ones, but they fit inside the space extremely easily.

I thought the CVO and WHIM enabled bikes already had Carplay from the factory?

It does but the jumper makes CarPlay connect wirelessly
