here is a pic of my road king with the solo tour pack on. I love having the tour pack back rest on long trips, it is like sitting on a sofa cruising down the road!
Sorry been off the forum for a while and messed up my previous post.
The colour is Bronze Pearl, an original Harley colour only used for a couple of years around the year 2000. I have no idea why you would stop using a colour like this. This is a 2000 model, started as a Road King Classic, but the leather bags were a bit beaten up after 100,000 klms (about 60,000 miles - I'm in Australia) so I replaced them with bags from a later model Ultra (and the wheels), which I picked up cheap. Then I changed the seat, the bars .. you know the story!
The seat I actually imported from the US to Australia from Whiskers, whose bike appears right below my original post! A true gentleman who included a couple of extra bits in with the seat.
I'm very happy you like the bike. It gets A LOT of attention.
