Default First ride on new RKC
Just took my first ride on my new Road King. Man that thing is as smooth as a babys bottom. Put close to 300 miles on it Sunday. I didn't want to get off. I guess i am going to have to get rid of the Softail avatar and go with the KING!

I know what you're saying. Used to own a RKC in the past. My new Ultra's even much better as I'm on the learning curve, LOL.

Enjoy,
