    I love my Road King. I've owned several Harleys over the past - going on 30 - years. The RK is still my favorite. Like floating on a cloud with a face full of wind. Best zen a man can find. Sometimes I get so relaxed and zoned from a long ride, I feel like I smoked a joint. Damn, I love this lifestyle!

    I'm 70, live in Scotland,
    a Harley nut and a massive fan of the USA having lived and travelled there over the years. I ride my 2008 Softail Custom as often as I can, and being retired that's most days, it keeps me young. I rented a Road King to ride Route 66 and a Night Train to ride the PCH, great bikes on awesome roads and memories to last a lifetime! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    I have a 46 U model chopper, a 94 Electra-Glide Classic (stripped down with no fairing or tour pack, & rusty & dented, bought as a spare bike), & a 98 95th Anniversary Electra-Glide Ultra Classic, & a 08 Honda CRF250R Limited Edition. Funnily enough, my go to is that rusty, dented, naked Electra-Glide, that for all intents & purposes, is basically a Road King in everything but the name. Happy trails Bob

    I hear you. I had a 2011 RK standard that was great for cruising the back roads. I love the Road King but I now have a 2012 Honda Goldwing which is hard to beat for serious cross country touring two up; but I sure wouldn't mind another RK !

    I have an '18 Triumph Street Triple 765R which is my dream bike. I also have a '21 Sport Glide. I commute on the bikes and M-Th its the Harley. Friday is the Triumph for the inspired ride (have to hit 100+ at least once). But for a weekend ride, I have come to prefer the Harley. I'm 58 now and like the comfort.

    I actually only own one bike, the HD Ultra Limited, but my son garage's his bike, a 2016 Triumph Rocket 3 Roadster, in my garage, so technically I could always climb on it and go for a spin. Getting a ride in will definitely make the day better. Amen in regard to checking on a friend.

    I'm lucky to own a 2004 Road King and a "98 Honda VFR800. I usually ride the Road King when my wife wants to go on a ride on her '14 Heritage Softail. My two bikes are so different in the "feeling" I get from riding each of them. The VFR is one of the best sport tourers ever made and the engine is incredible. The V4's exhaust note rivals the sound of a V-Twin or a V-Eight. The Honda is exciting to ride and a totally engrossing experience for me. My Road King, on the other hand, is very comfortable, easy to ride, Zenful (I think I made up a word). I find myself enjoying the scenery and "vibin' on the chug". I can't name a favorite, but I think the VFR is about the "riding" and the Road King is about "the ride".
    As an aside: Rode yesterday on the Road King with my wife on her Heritage for a little trip over the Grand Mesa here in Colorado, probably a 75 mile round trip. We recently installed coms on our helmets. We were riding through some switchbacks and she yelled in the intercom, "I scraped my floorboards!" She was so stoked that she had laid it over enough to hear the floorboards scream., "That's fast enough!" To hear her joy through the intercom made my day.

    • @BoDean52
      @BoDean52  10 місяців тому

      Floor board scrape - that's great and had to be awesome to hear. I believe coms for both of us has made the enjoyment of riding and our relationship better. Hope you both get many more years of riding!

    Nothing Wrong With Country🎶.

    Waylon Jennings, Loretta Lynn, you should listen to Alan Jackson👍, and Hank Williams Jr. .
    (Sorry it seam I read on some false info of the demise of hank Williams, guess one can't believe "chit" these days .)
    The King just like yours, no fancy chit. Just you and the mechanical machine to enjoy Life and the ride taking time to enjoy this life 💚‼️
