It's been a while....
Hi all.
It's been a couple years since I sold my beloved RKC. Im getting the itch to look at bikes again.
Thought I'd spend some time, and see what's hot these days.
Here's my "very missed" 2005 RKC:

Road Kings are still hot but I prefer a Street Glide or an Ultra Limited. The Road Glides are starting to become popular too.
It looks like you will need to rent (or at least test drive) some bikes to see.

You can't go wrong with a Road King. YOu can turn it into anything you want from a cruiser to a tourer. (That's in my completely unbiased opinion.)

The good thing is that Harley (I'm sure by now, you know they made a big change in frame, etc, in 2009) Davidsons look pretty much the same on the outside. You
could get one to look just like your old one and pretty much no one would know that you got a brand new model.
On the other hand, like everyone else has said, rent a touring rig with a fairing, radio, etc, and really see the difference. Ride the same roads, highways, on several different models.
Just remember, whatever fairing you choose from, you WILL have to make some changes, to get the correct air pocket for yourself. IE, sheilds, seats, bars, lower fairings.
Good luck and welcome back!
