The first Harley® motorcycle used a bicycle frame, had one cylinder and did the work of three horses. Times sure have changed. Nothing makes the road more proud. A giant chrome headlamp and nacelle. Detachable windscreen. Hard touring bags. Ample FL-style front end straddling a big-skirted fender. The Road King® is packed to the hilt with goods that inspire endless highways. But it's not just there for show. The 96 cubic inches of Twin Cam beneath all the shining chrome is just the thing to take you down that road. It's rubber-mounted in our touring frame and matched perfectly to six gears in a Cruise Drive™ transmission, just waiting for your thumb on the starter.

Its front fender shows off the broad 17-inch front wheel. Its custom skirted back fender sits above a 200-millimeter rear tire. The wheels are solid slabs of cast aluminum, ringed with 0.50-caliber, bullet-sized holes. Everything about this motorcycle commands space on the road. The seat is low and wide. The thick 96-cubic-inch helping of Harley-Davidson® V-Twin engine is served up in chrome and black. There’s a shotgun exhaust. The Fat Boy® is what it’s always been and more. One big-boned knockout.
