Here's mine. Not a classic per se, they didn't make them this year.. But they kinda combined some aspects of the FLHR and FLHRC.

Got it done a few days ago. Lovin' the suspension. 'tails are a bit longer than I expected, but they'll be OK. Maybe some 16" apes are in order Don't know if it'll fit in the trailer anymore. Good thing the tips are removable.

Here's a shot of my "old" RKC. I took this way way back. Geez, let me think, must have been about 3 weeks ago! LOL!

Take a '12 RKC, add 1 restored old Texeco gas station up in north GA, then switch color to sepia.

Just another way to make a classic a classic!

PS. This old gas station is now an ice cream shop; very cool place in Chatsworth, GA.
