Nice bike but i would have to change the handle bars immediately ... Love the color though.
Riding a Harwee is a blues thang...
You needs your own Blues name... you start with the help of a physical
aliment like blind... cripple... lame... then add a fruit like
lemon... lime... kiwi... finish up with a president like Jefferson...
Johnson... Jackson... you become Blind Lemon Jackson or Lame Kiwi

yup, my arms are going numb just looking at them.
Beautiful color and wheels.
Luv the color. I bought a 2008 Road King Classic back in 2012 with 8K on it. Sold in 2018 with 18K on it. Some days I miss it --- most days I dont with all the bad drivers on the roads these days. Enjoy & BE SAFE!!!!!
Agreed.
The stock Road King bars are actually really comfortable. I put them (stock HD RK bars) on my Dyna (which had buckhorn bars - terrible bars) and it made it a really comfortable bike.
The bars on my '05 Road king, would cause my shoulders to ache after about an hour. The position seemed awkward for me. Now, I have a '06 Police Road King with the stock police bars on it, and it's a world of difference. They have a slight rise in them, which helps handling, I mean this bike handles like a bicycle, without the shoulder soreness. They would be an easy swap to change. without messing with wiring.,,,
I'm about to order a windshield because going 80MPH down the highway with the wind blasting you in the face for an hour is about all I can take. I'd like to be able to ride to 6-8 hours in a day and go on a road trip....but that's not really doable now until I get that windshield.
As far as the bars go, they seem OK. I have nothing to compare it to. Yeah, I'm sure my arms get more tired now vs. if I had different bars. But I'm thinking this might be a local bike, and I might go get me a highway cruiser next (maybe an Indian)

If you do the windshield you will also want fangs on the forks, this will allow comfortable 6 hour trips
Mine too.
I changed the bars on my '01 RK as the stockers were too low. I think HD called them touring bars back then.
