Looks really good with the hardbags. That color is KILLER. That motor will never leave the stable will it? If it does I want first dibs on it.

To me it's more nostalgic. The Road Kings are based off the Electra Glide platform. Look at a '65, '66, '67 EG. Looks identical.

I think the RKC variations are going for more of the late '50's FLHF and FLB look.

Either way, looks great.

Aside from the ugly color, pretty solid looking scoot.

Talking My baby's new shoes
I finally got pictures of my Ultra Classic with her new shoes on. I really like the way the Wide White Walls look. Next change will be Samson fishtails and motor work; hopefully next winter. I am dreaming already.

I tried to upload my pics, they are in my profile but it doesn't want to show up on this tread. Maybe I am doing something wrong being a newbie and all.
