Default New Highway King Owner here-
Well- after not riding for 3 years and having the itch ….The MoCo got me when I laid eyes on the new Highway King.

Will be a journey but plan on a custom retro 2UP seat , bars, air ride, and some fishtails- maybe some chrome goodies and possibly a 21” spoke.

first step - 2UP so the wife and I can enjoy it while we start ordering parts. So excited to be riding again- and love love the bike!

I am waiting to see one with the sidecar option. Made by Champion it should be a good sidecar.

I have a 2019 FLHTP that I like alot. I am curious as to your idea of a retro passenger seat. Like the longer buddy seats of yore? Or something else?
