Nice looking King, seat looks comfortable and if it was me I would add a luggage rack. If you really want it offer $12,000. If the owner is really wanting to sell you'll find out what his low number is going to be.

I think you're on to something about the cams. I'd consider 254e's and another tune. What kind of tuner was used? Appears to be a nice bike though.

Other than not having no chrome fork lowers it looks like a nice bike with some cha ching put into it. Even has an Ultimate seat which is high dollar but not necessarily the best in the world. That is not first hand experience but a friend that also posted so surprised he didn't comment on it as he took his back before the 10 day trial. Of course we all want to pay as little as possible but take the trip and ride the bike. Ya just might fall in love. You already have a Road King so you know what you are getting in to.


Money pit!!!

You need to talk to my Mrs.... She is king of negotiation. She would offer 10k at the most, let them be insulted and then come off from the 10k.
The bike looks sweet. I have a 103 and I similar numbers until I put a cam in...
Ride the bike. Numbers are just that. Numbers. Good luck... however it turns out.

The exhaust looks like the Vance and Hines power duals with high output mufflers. I just bought a set a couple of weeks ago and they were $1100.

It's before the motor was upgraded to the "Stage 3" configuration.

That's what I have on my bike. I can vouch for that price. Super Tuner and dyno tune later, I was broke!!
