Default RE: RKC = Classic or Custom?


ORIGINAL: moblul



i've always loved the look of the old 40s and 50s model Harleys and to me, the RK Custom is cut out of that mold. it just looks how i think a bike SHOULD look - that is why i bought the '04 RK Custom that i'm pickin up on Saturday.
Congrats to you too! If you end up with a squeal in the front brake, its real easy to correct

I got my 06 RKCustom last august. My first scoot. I love it. I wound up getting pearl yellow, pretty sharp, and have gotten alot of comments and alot more looks. It makes my riding buddy jealous when all of the chicks say hey, nice bike, and just look at his. I've added a windshield and bag, matching passenger boards, the sissy bar, and other stuff. I love it, except for the addiction of swapping stuff out. Later, and ride safe!!
