My brother-in-law rode down for a visit today on his 2000 Harley Road King Classic he's had since new. I got a chance to ride it a bit today. It's got a brand new F.I. 95ci. hi-comp. big cam motor and will scoot! While I think the R.K.Classic is the best looking bike Harley has ever built and it may ride as nice as anything Harley ever built it sure ain't no Goldwing! I've ridden a few R.K.'s and Electra Glides and his is the tightest feeling I've ridden. That said, The Goldwing is a lazyboy recliner and the Harley is a washing machine in the spin cycle. Still a beautiful looking bike in my eyes.

That is a pretty sweet looking bike all right. One question though, why does an eight year old bike have a new motor in it?
