Road King - what to check..

900 miles is perfect, just broken in! Actually not quite broken you'll feel it run better in a couple thousand more.
 
There's a couple of thousand quids worth of chrome on there you could sell on eBay which will lighten the load and help you to afford a new set of tyres (those whitewalls have to go), a new seat and a batwing conversion ;)

Funny, I asked about m new tyres as part of the negotiation and he quite rightly said ride it, wear them out and have black ones next time. Sounds like a plan.
