This is the best touring bike I have ever had. Since the farring is attached to the frame and the steering turns directly to the front wheel without the farring movement, it slices through the wind. You can pass a semi at 75 mph and you don’t get blown around. Total different feel than my previous Ultra Classic. Best suspension it really absorbs the bumps. Show less

Although, the road glide custom is agile, partly due to the low center of gravity this is a 800 pound gorilla of a motorcycle!! Handles very well. Very smooth and reliable with all right upgrades you’ll be sure to have a pleasant experience every time. Very quick and nimble. Easy on the mind, body and soul. Show less

I have had no mechanical issues, suspension is set for the "perfect ride," and the quick response, when hitting the throttle is a "life saver!" I've got "no complaints." I've been riding for 50 years and "The Nightrain is the best Motorcycle I have owned! Bar none!! I truly, don't understand why Harley-Davidson discontinued this model. Show less

Highlight of owning this MC was our trip on RT 66 from St Louis, MO to Santa Monica, CA. Rode the bike one way and shipped back. Next highlight was trip to Sturgis, did not ride but trailered the bike. Loved riding in the GA and NC mountains and attending most of the bike weeks throughout the SE. All service was performed by HD dealers and have receipts for all work. Good thing about Harley Davidson dealers is you get priority for service while traveling. Installed cruise control for the RT 66 trip and also attachment for heated clothing and gloves. this all stays with the bike. Installed some chrome on bike. Riding with groups is safer and desirable. Most of my riding buddies have retired and no longer ride, thus the reason for selling the bike. Show less

I purchased this bike used. I have owned it for about 1 1/2 yrs. Up until about 4 yrs ago, I had never owned a Harley. I had mostly Honda’s Kawasaki’s and BMW’S for the past 50 yrs or so. I went to a Harley dealer just to look and wound up purchasing a used Limited. This was a very powerful and comfortable bike. This bike actually seemed more comfortable than my BMW. The BMW is awesome but the seats never seem real comfortable for me and for me, I have to go for an aftermarket seat. Since owning the used Limited, I had switched around with several Harley’s. I had a sport Glide a Street Glide and a Road Glide. I loved them all but when I found the Road King I took it for a ride and just had to have it. It is a lot easier to handle than the Road Glide or Limited. The Road Glide is an awesome bike but lives better on the highway on long rides. The Road King on the other hand is a great touring bike as well as easier to handle in town. It is quick and powerful but comfortable and balanced quite well. The Road King for me is the best of both worlds meaning that it handles great in city traffic but can give you an awesome touring ride all day long without any sacrifices. The only thing I miss on the Road King is a radio but I have solved that by getting a helmet with Bluetooth speakers and a radio but I normally Bluetooth my phone to my helmet and listen to Pandora or Amazon Music. I hope this helps anyone looking for a real comfortable and quite easy to ride Harley. Show less

I bought this Road Glide new in 2008 and had the dealership add many "extras". The bike is older schoolHarley with vibration at Idle which is classic HD. Road trips are fantastic with cruise control, great sound and plenty of storage. The Fairing is fixed (shark nose) and allows good air flow and protection. Floor boards allow ample movement and the seat is comfortable. The King tour Pack my spouse really like it a lot when she rode. The tour pack gives security for the rear passenger with a large back area for support. The reach seat has great padding for the passenger and is good for firm support at stop sign and red lights. Overall this has been a great bike but just don't ride it enough to honor it. Show less

This motorcycle has been a very reliable vehicle and has been well cared for. The bike runs well and looks good. The full windshield allows comfortable driving in cooler weather and helps keeps rain off of the driver. Crash bar covers are included which also help with wind and rain. I am selling this bike because I'm looking for a bike with more options. Show less
