Assuming the train you are talking about is the one in the above pic.There is NO WAY I would sell it to get that King.The King's not bad but it doesn't come close to your Train IMHO.

I've never been a big fan of the train and that RK looks different enough to make it worthwhile to me. I love the forwards and the rear fender. Kind of looks like a Road King "Deuce".
