Default 07 Roadking Classic barn find

Hoping to find some info on my buddies barn find. Looks like a mostly original bike with what the original owner says is a "pricey paint job" I can't find anything in google to match this color. bike has only 20K on it.






Anyone have info if this is a custom color? Any known problems?

Pretty good condition for being in a barn......Dayum!

Rare Factory Color- Dark Green Envy Pearl, Light Green Envy Pearl

This bike’s color is rare. Harley only produced this color in April and May of 2007

I think it’s the 1st year of the 96 ci. People on here were complaining about the heat.

Also, first year for hydraulic cam chain tensioners and 6 speed, but still 5 gal tank.

I have a 2007 Road King Classic and the only thing I can say negative about it is that the gearing is a little high and the coupling on the fuel line at the tank can go bad as a wear item. 58xxx mile and no problem other than these, but I will admit that after I put a sportster rear pulley on and se255 cams it really woke it up. Looks like a very nice bike!

My bro's '07 RK Police has the 103 but I really don't even think about using 6th at 70 unless it is flat or downhill. It does get good mileage at 75 or 80 which is good with the 5 gal tank.

Mileage isn't that unusual. In fact, pretty average these days. It looks like it was stored well.

Paint jobs don't make much to any difference on value. Green Harleys used to be considered a bit of a taboo hence not that popular a choice, as H-D riders are kind of small-c conservative.

Estate sale?

How much did he pay for it?

We don't have any barns that good around here! Looks as if a thoroughly good service will get it back on the road.

The term "barn find" is kind of generic term. I think it was more of a nice pole barn find, heated and concrete floor. He didn't say how much, but he said he got a great deal, the guy fell on hard times and needed cash. I am going to help him get a backrest, already found a nice one locally on CR for his girl. He is pretty excited. As I understand, the retro colors like green are making a comeback.
