Default new road king
&nbsp\\;Hey,
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Traded my 08 FXSTC in on a 08 king standard and I love it. Wife loves it to. Took me 21 yrs but i'm finally satisfied. started out with a 81 sporty, 76 bicentinnial edition superglide, 71 rigid sporty,46 flathead, 82FLHF(heritage fatboy), 82 sporty, 08 fxstc. First bike I ever rode with a windshield,wouldn,t have it any other way now. Planning on riding down to Tybee Island for the state hog rally in sept. anybody else going?
