Colin,

Guess what, I had one of the last of the first year 94 Road Kings in blue, with carb, fish tail dual exhaust and all sorts of added accessories ( they still had a plastic top cover to the seat with leather side trims with the Road King emblem) from BM Manchester. They had a sold one on display, full accessorised, I really wanted it, they rang HD and mine was apparently the last one in stock in the UK, from memory each dealership was only allocated 2 Road Kings in the introduction year. Had to buy it with £2k of BM selected accessories and as soon as I collected it I had the seat covered all over in leather keeping the original side trims which cost £350...I hated plastic seats especially for touring in hot weather as they cause you to sweat big style.

Absolutely lovely handling bike, much better balanced and lighter than the UltraClassic and just as comfortable. Great bike, exchanged it for the first TC Fatboy that was smooth but characterless by comparison. A friend bought it years later, I was tempted to buy it back when he had it for sale but already had 3 HD's and running out of space.......its a small world.

All the best
