The dealership wanted to charge me $340 to install chrome switches. My knuckle headed ass did it in an hour and a half. Yay DIY.

I did OK, but saw several cars get stuck and had to help push them out. I didn't want to mess with that with the bike (let alone the "sand everywhere" issue especially with a long ride back to Northern Virginia ahead of me. But I'll bet it was fun while you were out there!
I ride 4wd suvs on the beach very frequently here in Delaware, and at OBX also- in fact so often that I have a Tahoe that's pretty much used only for that purpose. It's critical to deflate your tires to 18-20 psi before going over the dune crossing, and if you still get stuck drop that to 15 psi. |

The wife's Road King the day we signed papers....a week ago tomorrow. 2015 Road King with Linked ABS. Had to order it to get the brakes. Nice upgrade from her 2013 883 Superlow.

Some great looking bike you guys have!! I can't wait to really start building up my RK and dialing it in just the way I want it. So far it is a mostly stock 07 peace officer special edition. HD stage 1 intake, Rinehart true duals, SERT tune. I pulled the smooth profile spoke rims and added 9 spoke wagon wheels, different grips, and a sundowner seat. Ride the wheels off it. I'll roll 70K this week. Wish I could lay claim to all 70K, but I boguht it a yr and a half ago @56K. My first HD and it is awesome.

Hey BMH. …Love your bike. I was in two minds about whether to go beach bar or apes. and also whether to how oath the two tone paint or stay just black and chrome. I took a look at the pics of your bike to see what you did with the rear. I am trying to decide if its worth chantings and if I do whether to go with the 16 fat spoke or 18. What you reckon on that? I am finding that the ride is just great with the 21 /16 and the front and rear lowered 2 inches. Is it worth going to 18 inch in the back?
