I'm 100% satisfied with mine and ride it daily.
Hey AZ, I'm thinking of getting the Reduced Reach Bars on my 09 RKC. I'm 5'10 with 33 inch reach and 31 inch inseam and I feel I'm reaching too far forward. How do you like the bars?

Welcome. Another RKC in the Tacoma area. I kept my Wide Glide, so I split my time now between the two Forums. Sorry you missed the Goldendale ride with Tige and us guys. We had 6 of us from the area ride over, via L'worth (beer & bratwurst). We'll hafta get together for a ride soon.

Congrats and welcome I like all those RK's Classic's, Custom's, Screamin Eagle's and of course the
Standard. Of course my opinion is biased I own a RK. You can do lots of things to them without that fixed fairing on them .JMO

I love my RKC. Even more after I put a Sundowner seat & reduced reach bars on her.

IT"S GOOD TO BE A KING

WELCOME
