Picked up my new 09 RK Classic about 2 and a half weeks ago and I abosolutely love it. I started riding Honda's when I was 17 (40 years ago) and afer a few years of riding gave it up when the kids started arriving. A few years back I bought a Honda that was a look alike of a Harley just to see if I wanted to get back into riding. I was hooked on cycling again and knew one day I would be a proud owner of a Harley. That day finnaly came. I decided on a RKC after riding several models. My bike is the light candy root beer over dark candy root beer and it shines like a new penny. I got some new chrome but also had the dealer lower it front and back. I also have my seat over at MeanCityCylces for a seat mod that includes dropping it 2 inches and adding memory foam, seat heater, and better padding for the wife on the passenger seat. Can't wait to get it back. I've heard nothing but good things about those folks. I'm glad to be a new member and hope to learn and share a lot with fellow members. Thanks.
