Road King Classic is a great ride. I have an '03 Anniversary Edition, been a great bike since day one.
Have your wife try on a Dyna Low Rider. Should be about right for a person her size, and they ride sweet.

Same here! LOL I like the slight rumble at idle but mine has no bark when cracking throttle.

I am sure everyone here knows the feeling, I am still smiling ear to ear. It is a whole different world sitting on the "King" coming of the Sporty. I did not have much time to ride last night, but when my wife and I got back, she parked her scoot, and I said hope on, lets go. What a difference two up. Now I need the exhaust, backrest, the new bars (handle bars, then new drinking establishments.......lol.....) What a excellent ride and I am very glad I listened to most of the people on here when it came to the choice between the Road King and the Deluxe. Now I just need to get to the 500 mile mark to let the real fun begin! Doesn't do ya much good to have a 6 speed if you can't go over 50, then 60.
