Is that a new model? Look's kinda' small.

J/K...Congrats on your RKC. My first Harley was the same model and I know that you're going to enjoy yours.

There's a thread at the top of the Touring Section called 'Turning your Classic into a Classic' that you need to spend time in. There are a lot of RKC owners in that section who trade different ideas on the nostalgic look of the Classic. Normally, I wouldn't send a newbie there because some of this stuff will cost them a lot of money...but you've already said that you're a doctor...
