Nice color on that Road King. First few things I would I do: Add the Fan (HD or Thundermax) to the oil cooler (& ECM flash), and ventilate the crankcase (Trask M8 Checkvent). The HD Smoked-Vented-Detachable Windscreen looks awesome on the King, very functional and light too. Adjust (roll) the bars slightly back a bit (closer to the driver) [or change bars?], and of course other great stuff (seat, grips, floorboards, mirrors, etc.) to personal customization preference. A nice Stage-2 build (intake manifold/air cleaner; exhaust; cam; & a righteous Tune) is the minimum (imo). Hmmmm...as the KIng is already lighter than the Glides (RG/SG), I can see why this model is popular for street racing, I mean for racing on closed courses or in "Mexico". It will be hard to resist the urge to go beyond Stage-2...fully understandable. Any-hoot...Congrats on purchasing this awesome looking Road King. Tom M.

well, Imma say it would have been good to do something totally different, out of the norm, show how broad you are when it comes to motorcycles and roll over to an Indian Challenger....Ok I know, its the other side but it's still a bagger and since you're gonna do only a few upgrades....well, that's just my thought. You are still a sport bike man, and so am I, so a move to the Indian should be a smooth move....lol
I suggest for exhaust Tab Performance 50 cal Zombies 5” tips. I just purchased those for my 2023 Streetglide and the tips fill up those exhaust holes perfectly 👌🏽. Love the motorcycle and Love that color. Started following your channel after watching a couple races
If it were me, fast johnny all day. But, I couldn't stand the handlebars and my Shin smacking the air breather when breaking. Till I find the one, I'll smile ear to ear riding my 11 FXDWG. That green road king is tits though 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do not let the M8 Machine you purchase leave the dealership with the plastic intake manifold. because of the warranty I had my dealer put the screaming eagle aluminum intake before letting mine leave the dealership. just a suggestion if you plan on keeping her long term. nothing like a Harley ...holding a bull by the horns and riding thunder.👍
Beautiful bike, enjoy it! Though your man did you dirty, he didnt pitch the pan america? can outright beat all of those! Either way, have fun and ride safe.
Congrats on the new bike. Funny you say they are rare. I bought a road glide special and my second bike is this color and a road king. I will send you a pic of them big chillin.
Love the road king - it really is the best of all worlds. Used to be really popular before the Street Glide came along and impacted their sales. The color though - I’m old school - no green, it’s bad luck. As much as you love the color - that’s why I can’t have a green bike. 😂😂
I've owned a few green motorcycles kawasaki and never had an issue knock on 🪵. That superstition started with bad luck on cars I don't believe in that one myself
@@officialmacI know I’m being irrational. I started riding in Washington state, and the superstition there was you’d blend in to the trees and not be seen. LOL. Enjoy the ride!
