In an effort to enhance an already proven design, Harley-Davidson revisited their Road King in 2009 and made a number of changes, some small, some large.
The most significant difference is the redesigned frame which Harley engineers feel is stronger, more durable, and enhances the overall ride experience of this touring motorcycle.
The Road King is still powered by the 96 cubic-inch air-cooled V-Twin coupled to a 6-speed transmission. Electronic fuel injection come standard in an effort to increase fuel efficiency and performance. New front forks and rear shocks were integrated to better handle road conditions and the the bike’s wheels get upgraded to cast aluminum with Dunlop tires.
On the outside, the unique styling setup includes a tank-mounted electronic speedometer/odometer combo with an integrated clock. The traditional straight-up Road Glide windshield remains unchanged as does the iconic 5-light headlamp assembly. The Road-King comes in six color choices and is shown here in White Gold/Pewter Pearl.
