Just a quick "hello" - I picked up my 07 SE Road King in late June this year and I've meant to introduce myself before now. But I've been too busy riding this summer!

I've got a Night Rod Special and the bagger. Very very happy with both rides. In fact, each has almost identical mileage now, 3900 +/- 30 on each. But the DX has a 3 month head start on the RK, so it's fair to say I've been favoring the bagger in terms of passenger comfort and utility (try buying anything more than a bottle of Sunwash on the DX & there's just no where to put it!). Oddly, the DX has a more comfortable seat than the Road King, something which the nice folks at Le Pera will have to help me with in the off-season.

By the way, this is a really good site. I've gotten a lot of good ideas and useful information here, thank you to all for that. Hope to make a few contributions in the coming years. I do spend a good deal of time on the V-Rod forums (1130cc.com) and my "name" NightRodX is the same over there. I used it here too to keep things simple for myself!

I can already tell this Road King's gonna be around a long time - I like it a lot. I hope these early pic's of it and the DX upload correctly. I'll post some recent ones soon - haven't changed much you can see since these photos except for switching to a pair of Rinehart slipons and I usually ride with a clear king-sized windshield instead of the low smoked stock one.

Just traded in on an 11 Rio Red SERGU.

So my old "NightRodX" name just doesn't work anymore.

I was just reusing my name from the Vrod forums, and now I'm air-cooled only.

Also gone is the 07 SERK.

Both great bikes, even with the 110 problems, but it was time they found new homes.

Pretty happy with the SERGU so far. It should do well to Sturgis and back next week.

Ride safe.

Patrick.

So it's still just a temporary name until you get rid of the Rio Red?

LOL, well it'll be a while before I get tired of this one, I think! A few years at least!

Or maybe I'll move to Rio??

Who knows?!?!
