2000 Road King

[Melch]

well ,melch told me the road king classic ,like mine ,had spoked wheels .
but i dont know

Oi! "Well, Melch said!!!!" Anyway, yours has got spoked wheels. However – Most of what I say is complete bollocks and I just make any old shite up as I go along to suit any given situation.

 

[jackassdave]

thats ok then . i do the same

 

[Mutley]

Sorry, I meant were the spoked wheels an optional extra on the standard Road King?

It's an old Harley, I'm surprised anything on it is standard

 

[Shep]

Would somebody be kind enough to post a picture up of this bike that i can see, pretty please

 

[Rob Farmer]

It's big, Purple and throbs (classed as Plant and Machinery on your tax return as well Shep so 100% tax deductible if used for your business)

 

[twizzle]

Go on Shep....you know you want to.....

 

[jackassdave]

Have you seen sheps dress sense? I don't think the bike will get noticed. with the heal toe gearchange he'll be able to wear his slippers as well

 

[Shep]

Oi Mr Farmer, i can be offended you know

I'd like to see a picture of it though, i am in the market for another eventually i like to see what people want and for what.

I'd like a carbed evo and i'd like a RK and i like spoked wheels but i don't want to spend loads TBH

 

[Rob Farmer]

Can't you see the picture that's been posted twice now shep?

 

[Shep]

No

just blue squares with a ?

 

[Melch]

Ahh! well you see, you can't just come waltzing in here and demand to see pictures. There is a 'Tassel Tax' to pay you know. Have you paid your Tassel Tax?

Well done nearly there then. Of course once you own both a BMW GS and a Harley, you do automatically become one of THE most arrogant bastarding creatures on the face of the Earth! (Sorry, I can't really help with the pics though!)

The Harley fuel injection system is made by Magneti-Marelli I don't think its a bad system (same as Guzzi, Ducati and the others) but when the rest of the engine is so simple (single carb, self adjusting tappets etc) I thinks it's easier to not bother with fuel pumps, fuel mapping, filters and all the other shit and shebang that goes with it.

 

[tangle foot]

Thanks for the advice gents , i`ve listed it on ebay at £8k with a best offer .

Especially if you don't care about emission regulations
