Most FLHX owners don't know the alphabet either. They were the start of the decline.

Several years ago, I tried to trade in a 2005 Softail Standard and when they checked my bike out, the salesman told me that the rear turn signals didn’t light up as running lights. I couldn’t convince him that it came from the factory that way with the bulbs were 1156s. I also told him that there is a conversation kit that turns them into running lights. I went right over his head. Needless to say, I didn’t trade there. A few months later, I was talking to the sales manager about it and he told me that the guy knew nothing about Harley’s and had to let him go.

If it isn’t a Road King, I don’t care what it is or what they call it.

I am not sure I really care that a sales misidentified FLHX with a tour pack for FLHTK. Or is this just someone setting up pics on a website?

I've never based my purchase on what the seller knows. I know what I want when I go in.
