It looks so stock. Let the bolting on of the bling begin! You think you're smiling now - wait until you do Stage1 and pipes. Brand new bike again! I did mine at 4,000 and what a difference - why did I wait so long?

Great choice on the RKC! How do you like it so far?? I love mine... She's a beauty.
I don't like it so far, I love it! My wife handed me some toilet paper, I asked what is that for, she said to get the shizit eating grin off my face.............. I should have seen that one coming.......lmao............

LoL!!! That's exactly the same way that I felt when I got mine. All you want to do is look at it and ride it and show it off. Mmm... I love my RKC.

Congratulations! I think there probably isn't a better time of year than right now to be picking up a new bike. I picked mine up in January and just turned 3k miles (most winter miles I've done in a long time). Absolutely the best bike I've ever owned.

You have many terrific miles in front of you...

When I got mine a guy walked up to me that day and told me, they don't call them road KINGS for nothin', they are the King of the Road. I agree with him. Now I've had Superglides and I thought about an Electraglide. There's the Street Glide and the Road Glide. I put all the detachables on the RK,I can "dress" it up or "strip" it down. I believeit's a "Town and Country" glide. You are going to love it. Just dropped mine at the shop for the first service and I feel like I left my kid at a stranger's house.
