Default Chick bike?
I need opinions and I'm sure I've come to the right place!
I have got a serious itch to buy a 2011 Road King Classic and I never thought I would buy a bike this color but when I got it out in the sun for a test ride I fell in love with it!
No offense to the lady riders but I want to know if this color says "CHICK BIKE" ??
Thanks for the serious opinions as I am really close to plunking down 20K

First, if you love the bike and the color then that is all that matters. Based on the pic I don't think it looks like a chick bike.

Its funny when I first started getting into bikes, ppl would say Sportsters are chick bikes.... then they said Dynas are for chicks.... then they said Softail deluxe bikes are for chicks... Does Harley make anything for guys ??? LOL

Obviously the most important thing is that you like the bike. I think it is a good looking bike and does not say "CHICK BIKE"

I am more of a black bike person, but when I saw my Red Hot Sunglow Ultra I couldn't get it out of my mind - I am very happy I purchased it.

Go for it.

Looks good! I almost got that color on my '07 RK Custom but I ended up going with the Vivid Black. Bottom line is you are the one buying/riding it so get what you want.
