Although I've ridden both Road King and Street Glide numerous times, I don't own one ....
However, I did change out the gauges on my FXD Super Glide to a tank-mounted FXDB Street Bob set up ....
I think the comment on the gauges is kind of weak, frankly ... yeah I have to look down a few degrees to see my speedometer face from where it was up on the risers originally ....
I don't fixate on my speedometer enough for that even to be a minor consideration .... I ride safely (which sometimes means accelerating above the posted speed limit to avoid a dangerous situation) ... and when it is safe to look down, I do ....
Just thought I'd pop up on a thread that doesn't concern me to call BS ... oh, I have something of a 'do-it-yourself' Road King / Street Glide with my detachable fairing, too ....

The RK is very versatile, in 07 I had an EGC and always second guessed myself about not getting an RK. I happen to love my RG, actually wanted it in 07, but don't like the silver engine, anyway, if I ever change from the RG, it will be to an RK.
Theres plenty of good opinions on this.
For now I'm gonna stay on the king.
