Just got my second Harley, a 2010 FHLR, vivid black, cruise. Before that I had a Fat Bob and never could find a comfortable riding position, I am 6"2'.
The Road King fits me much better with a few mods: seat currently reworked by MeanCityCycles, floorpans moved forward and out. Other than that factory with the exeption of some cosmetics.
All I need now is some decent weather so I can start riding, she sits in my garage with 1 mile on the odometer. I get a lot of enjoyment looking at her though.
By the way, I have been reading the forum for a while; it sure helped me in making the right choice in buying.
I been riding bikes since the mid-seventies when I lived in Germany, having a blast on the Autobahn on fast metrics. Now, that I am a "little" older I prefer a leasurely cruise and moderate speed. I just don't heel that fast anymore.
