I don't ever recall calling it an Electra Glide Road King, but maybe I did??

No wonder when I buy used bikes I never get the Owner's Manual, you guys keep them.

I still have my manual from my high school Sportster, is indicates 1970 to 1972.  I had the 1972 in the Burgandy with the custom black flames on the tank.  The flames were from having an electrical fire on the whole wiring harness burning up on it first day on the road.  You would have thought I learned something from that experience but apparently not!  It was a bad day with that bike but there were many more to come.

You guys just reminded me I still got the owners manual for a 1971 GTO. Wish the car was here instead.
