Default 'Naked' King
Stripped down naked for the rest of the Summer except for long road trips, or until my body cries Uncle

sissy bar, rider backrest, luggage rack, luggage, windshield same before and after as my 15 King..really is a kind of Hybrid model..transform from Touring to Cruiser in minutes..nice to be able to just swing your leg over with ease for hopping around town and not all dressed up..feels like a completely different riding experience

Rode mine today, still in love.

Rode her to Sturgis when I lived in Colorado. Cant part with her.

Anyway, your King is an outstanding piece. Harley should be knocking at your door anytime asking when they can have it to put in their museum.

I still think to this day the Heritage is the best looking bike HD ever made..well, except for the 2018..LOL..i've owned lots of Harley's, Sportsters, Soft Tails, Touring models, no DYNA or VROD tho and wife is on her 2nd Trike...the Heritage fit and feel was my favorite
