Default New Bagger Checking In
Hey everyone I've been around here for awhile but not on the touring side.
I traded in my Softail Standard for a Road King Classic today. Have only got to ride it around town a bit but so far I love it.

Took some pictures of it but not so great for night pictures. Will take some better ones tomorrow. If you have had a few beers tonight these might actually be in focus.

Welcome! Great looking bike, love the color combo. The hard part of riding a touring bike ( I am partial to Road Kings) is getting off it

Welcome to the touring family........the best thing about these touring bikes is that you can ride farther....longer....harder and barley get tired....the biggest drawbacks.....not being able to ride cuz of work, rain and sleep.

Apes are going to look bitchin on that bad boy.....whatcha got in mind for apes ?
