Nice simple RK. Would love to go for a ride in some rain right now.

I would spend the money and put a gear drive in it if the runout is good.

I love the look of a Road King with a solo seat and rear fender exposed. Just looks badass

No? He didn't have it. It came with a batwing type fairing with a stereo in it. Kinda makes it look like a SG. I wanted it off to bring the bike home. Never rode a fairing large bike. I felt more comfortable for first ride.
I'm definitely wanna get one. Need to recouped some $$$ first, lol.

I spent some time today detailing the bike out some. (Also took a nice ride, got my tag, paid taxes,etc..)
My front lamps are kinda hazy looking? I read up on here somewhere , that you can pull the bulbs, and swoosh some alcohol. Great hack. Look like new!

Default Next: figure out a way for some inexpensive SOUND!

What would happen if I took a smaller 1" or so holesaw and extension, and went inside and opened up the baffles cap/plug? Sound like chit? I don't wanna do something irreversible that sux.

SUGESSIONS? (temporary fix)
