My whole life, I would always regret not getting the upgrade whenever the upgrade was in question afterwards.

I like the lines of the specials but the whole blacked out thing annoys me. Stock RK it was for me, didn't need all the extra crap.

I went to the local funeral parlors, to inspect the hearses.
Not a single one of them had a hitch, so ya can't take it with ya.
Might as well buy the one that tickles your fancy.

Special! Back in 2015 I went with extended bags and CVO wheels to get a certain look and hey presto in 2018 it came with the specials in standard form. Better still was the blacked out look as I find the whole chrome thing very dated and hard to keep looking good especially in a country prone to rain

I was hoping for more photos, you have a favorite color? That might make it a little easier
