This post has been a long time coming. I sold my last bike (BMW sport touring) in 2002 when my first child was born. While busy raising kids over the last 20 years, I got my motorcycle fix by renting Harley's and doing demo rides at Laconia each year. I would go back and forth between SG and RG as my favorite bike and the one I would buy one day. But, then I road a RKS and I couldn't wipe the ****-eating grin off my face. Well, this Saturday I will pick up my first HD - a 2020 RKS. I feel like a 52 yr old kid days before Christmas Look forward to joining the club and contributing to the forum.
Without knowing the rules of this forum, I will risk posting a pic here since I officially own an RKS now even tho I created a separate thread to introduce the bike. If this is not allowed, feel free to delete this post.
I get a lot of my work done at Rochester Harley, N. H. About 45mins from me!
Good to know. This bike was purchased and serviced at Seacoast HD. Closest dealer to me is High Octane HD. I plan to do basic maintenance myself and bring it to the dealer for the heavy lifting.

Great minds think alike. It would definitely have to be done with the 20" shield.
Hey Mr. Vince,
I swapped 22" with 20" and I gotta tell you, 20" works much better than it did originally due to an angle/vent direction. And I can see over it so I'm keeping 20" on plus it looks better than the gigantic 22". I'm actually glad I didn't sell it lol

That's great news Oscar I'm happy for you buddy. I'm on the fence about messing with mine. My problem is I like the 22 inch with the vent not to mention the Air Force etching. I may just stay as is.
