Default socal cholo road king

I traded off my socal style deluxe a few months back and got a road glide. I really miss my more traditional styled bike and was interested in a rk because i love the ride of a touring bike but the look of a traditional style harley. I figured the rk would be perfect. Does anyone have any pics of a rk done up cholo style socal inspired look. I like the apes and the fat spoke wheels and custom paint jobs bikes. Any pics or suggestions would be of much help

Hey Cale came across this thread by accident. Forum member Nele 22 has one for sale in the classifieds.I think its sold but you can see the pics.It looks really nice.I would attach a link for you but not sure how to do it.What are you not feeling about the glide.A disconnect between the road because of the faring etc?

I know of what you speak! I traded in an 11 Limited a couple of months ago. My first bike was a Heritage & I was missing it...
