Very nice looking rides; I have to admit, the Classic is a great looking bike to begin with. I am wanting to change the rear light bar to something with a little better lines and not quite as bulky looking. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Nick

What a great thread! I'm looking for ideas for my new RKC being delivered in October so thought I'd revive this thread.

Volfan615, first actual Turquoise/White '09 I've seen a picture of. The ones on HD show variations in the paint. I'm glad to see that the back fender is also 2-tone. If you have any more pictures, please post them or a link

Thanks, geeded

Default My Police Road King - ReBorn
I just finished the paint job on ly 2005 Police Road King. I modeled it after the 1965 FLH Electraglide. I kept the bags and half the tank the stock birch white and did the rest of the body in a base coat of aqua with some sparklescent teal blue over it. It put retro tank emblems on it as well as the ElectraGlide front fender emblems (even though it's a Road King). What do you think?
