Default New 09' RK!

So after riding my 05 Sportster for the past few years my wife and I agreed it was time for an upgrade.

Today I picked up a 2009 Harley Davidson Road King for $12,200. It has 21,000 miles on. In addition to what's pictured it also came with the original seat, backrest, windshield, and dust cover.

I think I did alright, what are your thoughts?

Nice Bike. I had to open the thread because I didn't know what an RC was.

Good move and great deal!
You'll be asking yourself why you didn't do it sooner.
