Whats going on guys? Last week I traded in the Sportster and the Dyna and walked away with a 2016 Road King. Can't believe the how much different the ride is! For a big bitch she handles nicely and eats the turns up.

Look forward to learning from you guys as much as I did back in the Sportster and Dyna pages.

Sweet looking ride! You'll be carving up that Northeast back-roads in no time and smiling the whole damn time.

Great handle as well - Semper Fi.

Nothing like a Roadie in Vivid Black, just ride it to the 1,000 service, don't Change until then.

Well nothing to do with performance, you can add stuff for your riding comfort.

Nice looking Bike
