King of the road
By (I am an Owner) on Jan 03, 2012one of the best cruisers I've owned.
style, look, classic,ride and heritage Harley Davidson style.
the only problem is the head turbulence from the bad design of the windshield.
I am very happy with my King.

Great Ride
By (I am an Owner) on Dec 04, 2008After riding metrics for a number of years, I decided to get the Harley that I always wanted. Boy am I glad I did. This bike rides smoother than any other that I have ridden, it handles well and has plenty of power. The classic styling with the wide whitewall tires, laced wheels and lots of chrome ... screams Harley-Davidson. It is such a beautiful bike to look at. In the four months and 2,000 miles so far, I have not had any problems whatsoever.

King of the Road
By (I am an Owner) on Nov 19, 2008Love the bike, wish I had waited on the new frame on the 2009 model but the bike has been a lot of fun. Went on a short 400 mile round trip to the New River Gorge Bridge on bridge day had a oil filter come loose but the bike is comfortable, rides smooth, the heated seat is nice along with the heated ... grips. The look is just what the name says CLASSIC. No offense to the fairing people but the bike is too pretty to cover up with a piece of fiberglass.

Feel like a kid again.....
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 14, 2008The Harley-Davidson Road King Classic is a wonderful investment if you are looking for style, comfort, and fun. With the adjustable air ride suspention you can ride over almost any rough road with hardly any discomfort. Wherever we go, our bike is constantly turning heads with the look of the bike. ... Its got the classic look of what you remember the Harley looking like. It rides like a cadillac down the road. We can ride on it for hours with very little discomfort.
Its a great time anywhere you go. With the six speed transmission and the 96 CI motor, you have plenty of power to keep up with any car, truck, or other motorcycle on the highway. At highway speeds, there is hardley any noise. You feel as though you are ideling down the highway. Plus with the ABS and the cruise control, you can ride in total comfort and take full advantage of the feeling on this bike. No motor changes need to be made with this bike, you have everything you need!
