So I stop by the Harley shop to see this year's new colors when my
eyes draw me to my favorite one of the bunch, the Road King. Of
course, like all the others before it I've seen in the shops over the
decades, this one too was all black...YAWN.
The fact that they advertise a variety of colors yet only deliver
black is not my complaint however. IMO, the Road Kings are pretty
well perfect as delivered. Sure I might put a backrest on one for
Mama, but that's about it, until this year. Now, in their infinite
wisdom of creating their entire product line to cater to neophytes,
they removed what was the most comfy seat on a motorcycle and scooped
out all the padding so that every midget at the circus can flat foot
one and juggle simultaneously.
Will these guys ever produce a bike for riders for more than a year
without screwing it up?
