HUH??? With almost 30,000 miles on my 2007 Ultra never had any of those issues! You think that little RK is THAT much lighter? At least a real fairing dosen't rattle like that piece of plexiglas in front of you!!

No tools required for his bike - it comes fully equipped with one . . . (oh come on - you have to admit you stepped right into that one ;-))

Default HD Tools

Didn't get much sympathy from my dealer and after a few more calls the tools are not even on the radar for the RK, looks like the Ultra is the winner. 94435-02b ain't happening here... Dealer 2 stands by their word and offers the roll??? Don't get that.... Nothing a trip down to CDN. tire won't cure and for a fraction of the HD toolkit I get allot more fun. Good thread, thanks

Default Sometimes yes, sometimes no

We got the tools with our '08 Road Glide, '09 TriGlide, and '09 Ultra Classic, but not with an '08 RKC or an '08 RK standard.

I'll pass on that cheap, stamped out, chinese made tinker toy tool kit.

BTW, my plexiglass doesn't and never has rattled.

You Ultra guys are just too sensitive I guess. Must be why you hide behind all that plastic. Afraid too get your hair mussed up.

At least you won't have to worry about stripping any bolt heads. Looks like the "tool" would break before any damage was done to the fastener.

Actually the only markings on these tools are stamped "Made in USA".

I dunno - don't think anyone's particularly sensitive here - you just seem to have a chip on your shoulder. I have a Fatboy also - but I never came over to the touring forum before buying my Ultra Limited and told Ultra owners my bike was better than theirs. It doesn't seem very clever. Obviously there are different bikes for different budgets and purposes and I like 'em all - pretty much (not sure I ever cared for the styling of the Rocker - but that's just personal taste). I think the Road King's a fine bike. Nearly bought one myself a few years back - it all depends on what you need.

Made in USA? Looking at the kit, I don't know if that's good or bad.

I like all the Harleys also. I'm just messing with ya.

yeah, maybe I am a tool, I can live with that....been called worse.

I carry a tool bag stuffed full of assorted tools and junk in my saddlebag. Afterall, this is a Harley I'm riding. Never had much call for it on the road yet, but have loaned out some tools to others who needed some help.
