Default 200 on rear is an AMAZINGLY cheap suspension upgrade!

Next time you change back tire, go ahead and install a 200 as it fits perfectly and the ride will amaze you!
I personally went to the 200 for traction issues but the ride change truly was mind blowing.
If I had installed new aftermarket shocks I would have been impressed with how she rides now.
A change you will DEFINITELY not regret to the point I stopped looking at aftermarket shocks!
She may not be a special but "special to me"

Default Road King Special Amp Help

Hello everyone! I am trying to hook up speakers and an amp for my road king but I’m having trouble in regards to the remote wire for the amp. I have been told I could use a fuse tap to go from the amp to a fuse but I don’t which fuse to tap. Any advice?
