Default New RK Owner

Hey there, just wanted to come and say hey. I traded in my 04 Fatboy last week for an 09 Roadking. I was able to get a really good deal on my Fatboy and a pretty good deal on the Roadking. You can see pictures of the Fatboy under my albums. Below you can see pics of the new RK. When I bought it I had them put V & H pipes, Stage 1 upgrade, SE Heavy Breather, the New Docking Hardware, and the New Heritage like Handlebars.

Yep that is them. When I had my Fatboy I was thinking about putting those on it. So when I bought the RK and saw that I could have them on it I got them.

Thanks so much. I def do love the way it rides. Also I cant wait till the wife can get a chance and ride together. She wouldnt ride on the back of my Fatboy so that was one of the reasons that I went with a Touring ride is she has said she would ride on the back of it. haha.
