    Hi guys I’m trading the streetglide for a new 21 m8 roadking, it has arrived in Australia just need to get it to perth, hopefully Highway Harley get it late next week, it’s a black special but I have plans to paint it in the limited paint grabber blue and black but not exactly the same. I am going to be working in Geelong 16 days a month driving a truck interstate so I will be getting it fitted with a 120ci kit from horsepower Harley in Cobden, Alan knows his shit and certainly has my confidence. This is what it will look similar to, Harley add 8k for this paint set, I’m hoping around 4K

    Congrats on the new horse, that paint job will look awesome!

    I reckon the road king looks better every year, and is probably the best looking new HD in my opinion.

    Yes I’ve had a couple before and they are a nice bike, best of both when you chuck the screen on

    So I picked up the new ride and did 1100 k in 2 days, had it serviced and I’m ready to head to Adelaide tomorrow morning first thing, I have passes to get out of Perth and into Victoria for work however I’ll be stopping in Adelaide until my daughters wedding on the 4th March as I don’t want to get into Victoria and then not be allowed out to attend the wedding so I’ll get familiar with the old stomping grounds again while I’m there.
