Love it, dude! It's cool to see a bike and initially be caught off guard and think, "wait, wtf IS that?!" haha. Seriously, it's incredibly unique and everything you've done is purposeful, classy, and good looking!
There's just something special about the Road King! It's Classic lines, it's Kool demeaner! Andrew, your Road King is just Killer!! Thanks Matt & the Laidlaw Harley Krew! You guy's Rock!!
Great video. California is so different in terms of the style. I may not like everything because I’m not used to it, but one can’t argue that all of you Californians put your soul and craft into what you all do.
Love the channel Matt! Great content! Bought my 21 street bob last year after watching your reviews on them. Recently had the stage 2 SE kit added to the bike. Awesome bike love it!
Ditto. Except I got a 20 sporty iron. Brian is phenomenal, ive only had old sporsters and now a new one, dreaming of a street glide, but I absolutely love his content.
Andrew, you knocked this one out of the park. I do like the fairing and the fact that they headlight sticks out just a little bit. It looks good that way. I know it shouldn't but, it does. Post an update if you go the S&S cam route.
What a transformation! I dig the look you made a lot. Those risers and fenders and fork treatments are dope. I'm surprised there is no aftermarket ABS you could install. Nearly every word I heard gave me new insights to Bike building. I heard terms I never heard before, so I felt like a student being mentored by a master. Thanks Andrew!

Great stuff guys. Very nice bikes. I'm still at sportster level, but I did buy a new one in 2020, some mods, but love to see what you guys are doing. Keep it up
Very nice build. Made in America is important to me as well, thanks for caring! Loved the video footage, really shows the great build. Harley really does make a great bike off the factory floor but a solid vision makes takes it to the next level.
Solid RoadKing & your input on it's designing...Watch-out now, Harley has a new design Road King for production most likely next model year. The 2nd one you guys have put together from the LowRider.
Dude! Nice bike! I had the Street Glide and the Road Glide accessorized. I totally dig your new look on this bike. The black and chrome look is posh! One word to describe your bike "Slick". Cool video and cool build.
Very cool. I like the out of the box thinking. I was going to put a Road Glide fairing on my Road King but ended up going with a bat wing . What you did is a lot of work, I really appreciate what you did...
Beautiful unique bike the only thing I would do is swap out the plastic rear floor boards for either blacked out or chrome. Other then that that's an awesome looking unique bike that makes it your own and not a clone of everything else on the road. Great build and thanks for sharing.
Great video man, your bike looks awesome with that fairing, you gave me some ideas for my Fatboy but I’m still trying to figure out which way I’m going to go since I have lots of chrome.
The suspension and upsized wheels, +2 inch forks (and fairing) are everything. I'm guessing this Road King now has way more lean angle than any other stock M8 model.
That’s really cool that you had the chance to get your dads bike. It’s kinda like he will always be riding with you. For the longest time I didn’t really like the faring on the road kings but they are kinda growing on me. The black is dope super clean
Love the look Andrew! I’m inspired for sure. I’m getting ready to step up to a touring bike coming from my Pro Street Breakout. Can’t wait to see it when it’s 100% done. Good job man!
beautiful setup! the perfect mix of old school chrome and modern style black and carbon parts in my opinion. where can i geht these cool and big looking tank emblems? Greetings from Germany 🤘🏻🤙🏻
That fairing works well with the Road King. I can relate and agree about going with more torque. Chrome looks great on this. I personally like the exhaust setup on this compared to the shorter pipes. Ever thought about just running speakers in the saddlebags only? Would it be enough or deliver adequate sound without adding the weight of speakers/stereo to the fairing? Lastly, has your dad ridden this yet?
The saddle bag speakers alone aren't great. They are more of a supplemental sound system. No, his dad hasn't had a chance to ride it yet. I'm not sure Andrew will let him. His dad won't give it back!!
Great story. 2020 my pops passed and left me his 2009 RK. It as well was an old man bike, CB and all. I got it all up to date 2 months ago. Truck hit me in DTLA on Mother’s Day. Bikes repairable but in bad shape. Ride safe.
Very nice. Me? Still chugging along on my now vintage 2002 Road King Classic. Stage I with Hooker slip-ons. Luxury blue over diamond ice paint. (very rare) 80K miles and the bike still looks and runs like new. New Harley's are beautiful but I don't get rid of sh*t that still works for me and besides, the old RKC is still friggin beautiful.
Awesome Scoot! Along with the S&S 475 sent the manifold to Ward for porting. Anyways I do the same for seating as well. I run the same seat solo and have a Roadsofa for long range two up. Thanks for sharing.
Badass bro great job, I got a 475 cam in my road king special and its a beast, that was money well spent, killed the gas milage tho something to concider. Love your bike
Nicely done. I like to see the road in front of me so I would not put a faring on my bike (road king)... and I like ape hangers on a road king, but yours is for your taste... and it does look good. Keep up the great work.
I love this. I have been considering a road king with FXRT fairing for the last few years. Still on the fence if I want the base to be a road king, Dyna low rider s, or FXR … nice job!
awesome build, I would also shed off unnecessary weight off my bike and man those Thrashin floor boards are super light, carbon fiber fenders cool bro. see you around on those videos keep up the good work.
They do. Fairing is $849 and the mounting kit is another $600+.🫤 russwernimont.com/collections/fxr-fairing/products/fxr-fairing-mount-kit?variant=30264586895411 russwernimont.com/collections/fxr-fairing/products/fxr-fairing?variant=30254165655603
Exactly how I would build a road king. 10/10
Thank you. Judging by your name I would think you'd do the same thing. Haha
Love it, dude! It's cool to see a bike and initially be caught off guard and think, "wait, wtf IS that?!" haha. Seriously, it's incredibly unique and everything you've done is purposeful, classy, and good looking!
Thanks Peter. We appreciate the comment
These videos where other guys talk about their harleys are my favourite. Awesome bike and I love the fairing!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Changing the fork lowers and tubes changes the look so much. Awesome bike.
Badass Andrew. Love the exhaust note!
Road Rage is a great sounding exhaust!
Great to see that personalized look and feel is still thriving. Never would haver guessed it was a Road King.
Andrew was going for something out of the ordinary and I think he accomplished that
Very different. You guys are very imaginative and set new trends that the world follows. Great work.
We are the trend haha (at least we like to think we are). Thank you. We appreciate the comment
Real nice Andrew ! The fairing is perfect and the headlight modification is a nice accent. Thanks for sharing !
Thank you. Can't go wrong with a Baja Designs LP6
There's just something special about the Road King! It's Classic lines, it's Kool demeaner! Andrew, your Road King is just Killer!! Thanks Matt & the Laidlaw Harley Krew! You guy's Rock!!
Great video Matt, and that’s a great build Andrew. I’m glad you kept Dad’s bike and are enjoying the transformation.
Love it Andrew, makes a roadie look super sporty, chrome and black look is slick, your father should be proud of this build.
This ain't your grandpa's Road King Anymore
Great video. California is so different in terms of the style. I may not like everything because I’m not used to it, but one can’t argue that all of you Californians put your soul and craft into what you all do.
Thank you. We do like our bikes out here.
Yes! I’ve been waiting for this video Andrew as always goes above and beyond with his builds. This bike is no different, this things a killer ride 🤙🏽
He goes all in for sure. This one was about a year in the making
Love the BD light mod needs to be a standard option for the FXRT fairing
Nice job Andrew, really like what you have done with your Road King!
Appreciate the comment !!
Andrew, bike looks outstanding, sounds incredible. Like all your choices, upgrades, always a big Road King fan. Nice work!
That's a kickass looking Road King you got there Andrew! Very cool setup you got there! I love those wheels! Nice build! Thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you!!! 🙏🏻

Digging the headlight!
Badass! Never thought of doing that to a Road King but you pulled it off beautifully! Absolutely 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you ! We appreciate it
H-D+Andrew=Genius!.
Looks subtle but has a custom look. Great thought in your layout, like your style and especially your RG. Nice RK!
Great presentation and editing. That's a very nice custom bike.
Dad is going to want his bike back now haha
LOL, Andrew has been avoiding his calls.
Such a sick bike! Andrew always has an awsome taste!!
Thank you! 🙏🏻🤙🏽
I love these stories- neat to see how much one’s personality can come through in a build! Congrats and “ride on”!
Yes, Andrew definitely laid out exactly "The Why" on all his modifications.
Really nice upgrades and personalization. Blends the best of the new HD looks with some vintage vibe. HD should make it a Road King option.
Man that is a clean bike. That fairing blends in well with the rest of the bike. Pooty nice! 👍
You are absolutely correct as riders we are never happy always looking for the next mod
Best looking wheels ever.
Fugitive for the win!!
Great Job! The bike is beautiful.
That exhaust was rocking 🤘🤘🤘🤘
What a beautiful build! I had a '84 FXRT and loved it! I now have a '05 Road King and I would love to make it like yours Andrew! Very nice 👍
Thank you sir!
A great looking bike Andrew! The Road King ST…
Haha. Andew's version of the Road King ST for sure
@@MattLaidlaw seems as if Laidlaws go…so does Harley..kinda like the “as Cali goes, so does the country…
Nicely done Andrew!
Thank you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Motorcycle turned out really nice not overdone everything looks great Just love the road king classic
It looks like an H.R. Giger creation. Spectacular!
Really nice build. That turned out great!

Sick bike, I just ordered some t bars for my road king, going to add a Memphis shades road warrior fairing as well but I dig that FXLT style too.
That headlight is killer!
The bike looks awesome Andrew. Clean !!!!!! Like the look with the smaller bags also.
Thank you!
Sweet ride bro!
Very nice! Have a cammed 11 RK with faring. Ohlins rear, Race Tech spring and valves in front and the bike is fantastic 1 and 2up.
Hell yeah!! 🔥
Love the look, I’m a chrome guy myself. Great video.
Hi Andrew. That is just pure sickness!!! What a great story and what an amazing job you’ve done. Your dad must be proud! Ride safe!!!
Very nice Andrew!!
Really classy, congratulations
Great stuff guys. Very nice bikes. I'm still at sportster level, but I did buy a new one in 2020, some mods, but love to see what you guys are doing. Keep it up
Enjoy the Sportster. Everyone has to own at least one. There is a perfect tool for every job
Very nice build. Made in America is important to me as well, thanks for caring! Loved the video footage, really shows the great build. Harley really does make a great bike off the factory floor but a solid vision makes takes it to the next level.
Agreed. It's nice to start a build on an already beautiful platform. Just make your own touches.
Great vid and such a nice bike. Looks excellent!!
Solid RoadKing & your input on it's designing...Watch-out now, Harley has a new design Road King for production most likely next model year. The 2nd one you guys have put together from the LowRider.

Andrew try out the CR480 cam instead of the 475 cam if you want that more low end torque kick.

Very cool. I like the out of the box thinking. I was going to put a Road Glide fairing on my Road King but ended up going with a bat wing . What you did is a lot of work, I really appreciate what you did...
Top top job mate. Looks amazing. Admiring your roads too . All the best from Scotland 👍
Bike is looking Very Kool Andrew.
The lay down license plate holder.
Is that the Custom Dynamics?
Cheers
😎🤙😎
Nice job Andrew I think it worked out real well 👍
Now that's a nice bike/helmet camera setup
Thank you!!
This is my goal for my road king . Big Fxrt
Beautiful bike, Andrew!
Sure looks different than the Death Valley video with the fairing! Thanks for sharing
Thanks you sir! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Haha, he does go through bikes like underwear but I think this one has sentimental value
Real cool bro, the light was a successful after thought and I think it’s better then recessing behind the lens.
Thanks!

Awesome build 👍👍, considering a bagger build myself too.
Looks great Andrew!!
Great job Andrew, maybe Harley will take a cue from this build and enter the RK standard into the performance bagger game!!
Thank you!! Hopefully! I feel like the RK standard hasn’t got much love from the MoCo
