2009 Road King vs. Heritage choice.
OK want opinions from veterans having ridden or owned both heritages and road kings......I have an 05 heritage i bought new -now with 51K miles on it. love it been to AZ and CA from Austin Tx on it -great ride! I may be in a position (end of year deals) to buy an 09 Road king which is one of my other fav bikes as far as looks. Questions..... I ride 40+ miles to work on highway to work one way and most of my riding is in the hill country on weekend runs when I am not going to work and back. My wife loves the heritage and rides with me 50% or better of the time. Just curious as to your preferences.
Thanks and have a great new year!

I have owned a road King, electra glide, street glide and present bike is a 08 heritage softail classic. All bikes have ridden great. Actually rode cross country on the road king. Ride mostly solo. But the hertige actually has a little smoother ride than any of the touring bikes that I have had. Sure do miss the fairings on the street glide but am okay with the fit on the heritage. Just seems to fit my height and straddle a little better.
