I am dissappointed with all the cvo line this year 2003 roadking is one of the greatest bikes out there and see what they come up with this year.When i said dissapointed i meant paint jobs only tough everything else is great.

I'm still thinking the RK Classic bags would look better than do these RK Custom bags here.  They're a little bigger too (always a good thing).  Still not sure of the overall look to my eye though.  [highlight]If they wanted to do leather bags on this paint scheme on a "factory custom" than they should have done a truly custom bag too.  Dressed it with some sections of red leather on the red model and other appropriate colors for the others.[/highlight]  Could have made something actually quite stunning there.  Instead it's just a black tumor abruptly blocking the otherwise nice lines of a good looking bike.

Great idea Twolane!  You should have been a bike designer.

Give me a red S/E 02 95" Road King w/Otis tuning and life would be good!

I can't believe you said that, because last week I kept looking at the very '02 SE Road King you describe on ebay, and the seller was right down the road from me in West Palm Beach.  Stock, mint condition with 4264 miles.  Don't know what it sold for, if it did, but the bidding was at $18K and change with about an hour to go.

I kept thinking that I could get that, bribe Otis into a "how-to" session, and save a bunch of money over the new ones.  Depending, of course, on how much $$$ it took to bribe Otis.

Red

If given a choice of CVO's for sale lined-up, the 02 RoadKing in red would be my personal favorite. Then that red 05 SEEG runs a close second.
Just something about those that rings my bell.

As far as that Otis tuning,,, whatever the cost is,, it would still be cheap compared to what he would get out of it. Find you one and talk to him, he can make it fly!

I like the 07 RK (SE) and I just ordered one in ice black

[Pap]

To each their own, but I like it.  I think it's my favorite of the 07 SE's.  I guess I don't mind the bags since I've got a RK Classic sitting in the garage.  I have a bitch of a time trying to keep my painted bags from getting scratched!  [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

TBone I agree.  I had a 02 RK Classic that had to go when 06 arrived.  I really liked that bike and would have been tempted had one been available at time I bought CVO Ultra.

Ride Safe,

Ain't that the truth? I let a friend of mines ride my bike (he owns a SERK2) and first thing he stated was how he wished he had tunes.

I don't know about that....REAL riders don't need tunes...they let the motor sing to them.  
Besides...I've gotten pretty good at listening to the voices in my head.  

Cheers,

Tunes aren't a necessity, but sure are nice to have. Once you've had them being w/o just seems out of place. Goes right up there with riding long distance with a windshield vs. w/o windshield. Yes it can be done, but it sure is a lot more comfortable with then without. <- See no bugs in the teeth. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

I gotta say the paint on the RK CVOs is really cool this year 8-)

I'm a bit disapointed in the Ultra paint having seen it up close, it's less than what I would have expected from a $34K bike.

[PHAZE]

Isn't this the first year that HD has offered four SE bikes.  They're offering two different touring bikes.  They've got the leather tour pack on the CUSE and the leather bags on the SERK.  Since the CUSE has the hard bags, maybe the leather bags on the SERK just adds a little variety.  I've considered the RK Custom to be a nice package with the standard accessories.  I like the look of the new CVO RK, but I'm not just blown away by any of the '07 bikes.  I'm hoping to have a different opinion after seeing the lineup in Rapid City on Saturday night.

i agree,
the bags suck!!!

[d-rock]

Leather bags should stay on the RK custom. I  don't think they go with the SE image. my .02
