[QUOTE="bluesdog, post: 1249567, member: 25896"] I had a Road King a few years ago. I enjoyed the look and the sound, and appreciated the quality paint, fit and finish, and the comfort of that big plush seat while cruising along. I even found it handled reasonably well in Vancouver city traffic. The vibration from that big v-twin didn't bother me, although I had to install fatter grips to keep my fingers from going numb. I didn't like the serious lack of power on the highway, nor the rather vague handling at highway speeds. The brakes sucked, and riding on dirt or gravel was a sphincter tightening experience. Too much chrome. Way, way too much chrome. The gear shift was always clunky. [/QUOTE]
