Thanks everybody!! Yeah I dont know why they stopped making the Custom? It is a beautiful bike!! I love the look of the Street Glide (front and rear fender and tank) but didnt like the fairing. So I was looking at the switchback. Im 6'3" and it was a little small and I was thinking it would nice if they made a street glide without the fairing. And then I seen the custom and there it was. It only had 2800 miles on it and the detachable tour pack so I was thrilled!!! Absolutely love it!!!

Nice bike and welcome. The RK Custom is a cool alternative for sure. Black cherry is nice too.

Welcome to the Forum!!!

But seriously, you have the best Harley on the road!

I'm on my 3rd Road King, and so far, I'm not considering a different model.

I'll just echo everyone else and say that we RK Custom owners are definitely in the minority, but, to us, it's the best lookin'...

Why anyone would NOT like a touring bike that can be stripped for bar hopping or add on all the accessories and amenities for a cross country trip is beyond me!

Unique scoot indeed. Congratulations...
