That’s a BEAUTY!

I’ve seen a few of those on the road. I like BMW’s low center of gravity.

That is a handsome bike! :-)

I love Johnny Cash.

I'm currently riding a 2006 black-on-black Gold Wing. Black pipes, black everything. No Chrome.

My windshield is a BaggerShield that I keep adjusted down to its lowest setting--it's about 4" worth of windscreen. I've got about $12,000 worth of aftermarket accessories on the bike now.

My first "big" bike was a 1995 Honda Shadow American Classic Edition, or Shadow ACE. Hence my screen name.

Those look VERY Comfortable on long rides. :-)

They are great bikes, but when they need work.....

I hear you. One of the things I love about my '93 is that it's all mechanical...no computers. It makes wrenching it a lot easier.

But "Parts" can kill you financially.

Just sold my BMW R1200 GS Adventure that I rode across the country—taking every dirt road I could find.

It was really the ride of a lifetime.

But, a destroyed rotator cuff and a deep vein thrombosis has me calling a halt to riding for a while.

(Gold over Black Road King) Some friends got together for a couple of beers...

I also have an “After-Market” windshield on Blue. It is made by “Memphis Fats”. The botton 4” are tinted the same blue as the bike.

[Vermont Lt]

I had that EXACT bike. I loved it.

I’m sorry you are going through that, FRiend. Do you mind if I say a prayer for you?

[Red Badger]

Oh, they are comfortable and smooth! Shaft drive, well balanced and easy to steer. Newer ones even have a ‘reverse’ for getting out of parking spaces. Essentially it’s just a connection to the starter in reverse polarity in 1st gear, I think..........

Red 2-seater with a nice trunk...although "horse" power is limited

The Road King is a lovely Bike! I considered one for a while, but didn’t want to replace Ol’ Blue.

[CodeToad]

It was a very comfy bike too! I could ride 10 hours a day and not feel worn out.

REVERSE? Yikes. I don’t even know how i could handle that. Maybe it wouldn’t be too difficult, but I’ve been backing up Fred-Flintstone-Style for nearly a half-century.

[CodeToad]

I sold mine to a guy in Cincinnati who wanted to ride to Alaska on it. I hope he did as that bike was built for that ride.
