The Only Harley's I've ever owned. Had 3 of them so far and absolutely love the wind in my face and the feel of the King!

Agree 100%. Road King is the classic bagger, I have 2021 RKS. Stripped , classic profile. Just bike and road, I do use Bluetooth however. Way different ride without windshield. Not for everyone, but is for me! Enjoy your content!

Thank you very much. You are right. Just Classic.

I had a 98 Road King EVO as well. Of all six Harley’s I’ve owned, that Road King was my favorite and I regret selling it and buying an Electra Glide to this day.

Same here. Loved the Evo motor.

Love the Road King. I have a 1998, the last year of the EVO. The King is perfect for commuting to work, highway cruising, back road riding, and everything in between. I too really enjoy riding without the windshield. Living in New England, I do have it on early in spring or late in the fall when it is on the cool side. But otherwise I ride without it all summer long. I took out a new M8 equipped RK and it was very impressive. So I have been thinking about it but have yet to pull the trigger. The 98 is sill running well and it is long paid for. Enjoy.

I also had a 98 Roadking, it was my first Harley. Loved how smooth the Evo motor was. I definitely miss that bike!

You have a sharp looking road king. I love the older bikes. Stay safe

When the video started I gasped. By the water is one of my top stopping spots on my bike. I live in Millard and ride all over those areas you rode in this video. I've been thinking of getting a Road King and found this. Stay safe out there, brother!

I always see your stickers at that turnout, nice little spot for a break. Love my RKS for precisely the reasons you listed (except obviously for the chrome)

Had a great time at the GPMM 2022…can’t wait until the next one!

I ride a Road King as well....agree with everything you said 👍👍

Nice Bike!! I got a '19 King and I love it! I put in an S&S cam kit with headers and MK 45's , apes and it is mean, loud and sexy!!

My wife just bought me a 2005 Road King Special for my 40th bday two weeks ago. I really don’t know what the difference is 😂. Your bike looks like mine. It’s my first bike ever 🤷🏽‍♂️. I do need to buy a windshield though. Just so I too can have that option to take it off, or put it back on. So far, I love my bike. Still getting used to her though. We live in Florida, but from California. It’s weird to say. It’s been very cold lately out here. It just warmed up some to take her to work, so I did🤙🏽.

You will be happy with a windshield. I guess I didn’t know they made a Special in 05. Good luck and ride safe. You will be hooked for life now.

My Road King is an 04 with the little 88ci motor, I'd love a bigger motor I'd love locking bags, but my leather bags make me happy.

It’s hard to beat the looks of the leather bags for sure. I think Viking bags makes some leather bags that will lock but they still don’t look as good as the stock Roadking classic bags do.

I love my 17 King. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. In five years I’d like to buy a Road Glide, but I’ll keep the King.

I have a ‘21 Road King & I’m considering trading it in for a Road Glide. Love my King but I also love the look of a Road Glide. Gonna test drive one first. If I keep the king, I’m putting a stage 2 & change the exhaust as well

The 2003 Road King Classic, 100- Year Anniversary Edition, is one of the most elegant, stylish and archetypical Harley-Davidson motorcycles ever produced and forever etched in HD's rich history of motorcycle designs. The 2003 Road King Classic, as is with all Road Kings, is the personification of a Harley Davidson.

Manasota key is about 25 minutes from Port Charlotte. My family has vacationed there a couple times now and love it.

Road King definitely has that classic cruiser styling! It's been over 20 years since I've ridden a bike without a windshield. Now you have me curious, maybe I'll get to a demo event and ride something without one.

I won’t ever ride anything other than a Road king.

Great explanation of the Roadking love mine to

I had a 1998 Road King. 155,000 miles on it when I was crazy enough to trade it in for an Ultra to give my wife a better ride (she no longer rides, i got rid of my big baggers for an old Sporty. Love the light, agile bike and no fairing or windshield. Anyway, that 1998 Road King was fought over by 2 HD techs. The guy who got it rides 40 miles each way to work...Road King is an awesome bike. Love how you can strip off that windshield for sure.

Put about 1000 miles on my first road king. Its a stage 1 07. I put big spoke wheels on it. Love them it tracks a corner much better. Was looking at the ape hangers that come with the controls. Not sure if they are junk or not got to do some research. Where yours a complete kit or?
