02 Road King

Looking to see what you guys or gals think of your 02 road king. Taking one in trade today. Plan to own it for a while. Wouldn't have been my first choice for a harley but it is a nice bike.

2002 us the best year to own, IMO....Forged crank and Timken bearing unlike later models, better FI than earlier models.

Great bike, great year! I had on 02 Road Glide and loved it. You'll get lots of miles and smiles I can assure you of that!

'02 was a VERY good year! Like a fine wine, my '02 Ultra just gets better and better.

I love my 02 RKC. I have 34k on mine. I have changed to s&s gear drives with 510g cams. Great upgrade. Watch those tensioners! Mine were shot when I checked at 33K. Good luck!

Love my 02 RK. A little nervous when I bought it at auction a year and a half ago but it only had 10K miles and was cheep. Not a problem with the bike, I have put 10K on it and the bike has runs flawless with just fluid, filter and plugs changed.
