Road King Convertable
I have had my King for almost two years and have finally got the bike to the point where no matter how long or how short the ride the bike is very comfortable.
I can see why many riders hold onto a bike for a long time. It takes a lot of effort to get the bike Just Right.
So why do I call my bike a convertable, Because I can tailor the bike for to type of riding I want to do.
First of course It's a Road King and sometime it even looks like a Road King.
And when it's in this configuration it's usually Solo.
But sometimes Moma wants to take a ride so add a back seat and a sissy bar.
Of course theirs my personal favorite, Street Glide Mode, with some tunes.
And of course theirs the long haul, fully loaded and ready for the ride.
Anyway. this is a King that can do it all!!!!

Nice share, enjoyable seeing the Kings in the various set ups. Gotta save the link to this when people ask about Road Kings to truly show how versatile the Kings are.
Whisker's you've got one sweet King, one of my favorites that I've seen.

Great bike or is it bike(s) ... I'm not sure in your case. It's a good feeling to pretty much done and happy with a setup. Except for a more few doodads here and there, I'm closing in on that point too. Again, great looking bike(s) ... whatever.

Now you just have to swap out the bag guards for the comfort profile style, and momma will really be happy!
Now that I have my FXR3, my Batking never gets stripped down. Best of both worlds
