Last Weekend Ride before major surgery... Tearing her down Monday to install 131 kit. I am stoked like you wouldn't believe. Its going to be a tough week while she is in pieces, but hopefully if all goes smooth, we will have her on the dyno by next Saturday

Thats the Dominion collection. I have the boards, highway pegs, passenger pegs, grips, and mirrors. Very comfy and look great on the RKS

I was hoping you were going to say that. Those are the floorboards I'm planning on. Can't say when I'll be able to get that fat tire kit but it looks great on your King.

I dont remember, but it was very reasonable from Native Custom. Its just wheel, tire, legs and cans and fender. If you call them, they will price out all your details and even recommend an installer in your zip code, if you dont want to do it yourself. I was lucky, my dealer loves installing these kits and I did it before I took delivery. Its a must have upgrade for me. Best ride I ever felt.

Can't think of another bike as versatile as the Road King.

Man that's a sweet looking bike.
Good luck on your surgery. Hope you recover quickly so you can hop on that 131 .
You may want to fix that pillion, that doesn't look very comfortable.
