RE: Need some info........
I bought the Road King Classic. Love the looks, leather bags and white walls. One comment I have is that if you run into bad weather the fairing adds some protection. The other thing I like is the 96 cu engine. If you buy new, add the AC on your purchase.

Looking at buying a touring bike.It's a toss up as to which one to get. With the used market the way it is right now I probably won't buy new but it is not out of the question. If I buy usedI wouldn't be against buying a later EVO or later twin cam. So here are the questions, looking for comfort, reliability, MPG. like the looks of the Road King but would probably enjoy a bat wing faring. Road glide is ugly but probably awesome for touring. So with that I'm looking for some input......

I side with Andy. A fairing is an easy addition to a Road King (I like Dragonfly Fairings) and can be taken off. If you decide you don't like the faring on a SG, removing one is not so easy. Tourpacks can be an easy additionon any touring model.
