Talking Gotta RK
Finally found a good deal and bike I liked.'06 carbed RK.Guy threw in a tourpack,backrest,battery tender,just serviced/fresh oils,original owner,12,000 miles,V&H's..Have'nt really had it out other than the test ride (from a private seller is unheard of),and the fact no tag until tomorrow.This is my first bagger/dresser type bike-always choppers since late seventies...Culture shock

I really gotta get it out and get more feel of it.Major difference in weight and handling compared to my chopper w/41 deg. rake and 300lb's. lighter..But man is it gorgeous (black pearl/dark charcoal color).I started looking at touring/glide bikes back in November.Laid my eyes on the RK...I'll try to get some pics posted if I can figure it out.
