Yeah, go figure they cancel the RK Custom and the Duece all in the same year (2 of their best) and add some dodo bird looking Rocker.
Good luck with the classic.

RE: Road King Custom
Hind sight being what it is I shoulda bought a standard Road King. I bought the custom. I wound up removing the wind deflector ( it deflected it alright, right into my FACE!) and i swapped over to painted bags. Add some fender trim and passing lamps and Ive got a standard with diferent floor boards and no windshield. Oh well now mine is unique lol. Thats what mom always said when other kids called me ugly too LMAO!

Congrats on your new RoadKing Wally. I know you will love it even more when "your name" is on the paperwork. Post some pics when you get a chance.

RE: Road King Custom
I own a rk custom, as most of you know... IMO, it looks much better than any of the other two rk's. Sure, I wish it had the hard painted bags, and I did add passing lamps... but I don't care for the sticker on the standard, and the classic doesn't have the painted bags, either. I am very happy with my bike... although, changing it over to be more of my ideal, is the fun part...
Congratualtions on your new road king... they are all kick @ss bikes... get us some pics when you can....

Congrats, You'll love it. Isn't the Street Glide just a RK Custom with the batwing?
Whiskers, what kind of solo seat and fender rack are on your bike pictured? That bike looks awesome.
