Hello everyone,

This is my 2011 FLHRC with 2009 tins. It is my shot at a classic and still a work in progress.

Thank you very much, that's a nice looking King you got there. The seat is Mustang Vintage Solo.

Thank you very much. I lucked out, the previous owner had a 2009 FLHRC that had some issues the local dealer could not fix. The dealer was cool enough to trade that 2009 for a new 2011 model, and switched the tins. The previous owner put four thousand miles on her and had to trade her in for a trike.
