@@LukeTPZ honestly I feel like the road king is superior in every aspect. The turn in when you lean is better, it’s more stable at every speed from slow stuff all the way to doing 90+ mph down the interstate. The fatbob at those speeds would blow all over the lane, the road king doesn’t move not even next to a semi. The road king in my opinion feels faster than the fatbob even though it’s roughly 200 pounds heavier. The road king special is about 805 pounds or so but it wears the weight very well. I think I hit on your question of handling but if you have any other questions feel free to ask. Sorry, trying not to ramble. lol
@@My.name.goes.here. That’s really helpful, thank you. I’ve considered the FatBob, but seem to have it down to two models that overlap similar riding territory, but from different start points - the Sport Glide or the RKS. There’s the Springfield Darkhorse, but after spending today on my dad’s Scout, I can’t say I’m overly impressed (not that it’s a bad bike).
@@LukeTPZ if you’re looking at new bikes the new fatbob is an entirely different bike from the older fatbob. 2018 or 2019 is when it changed. The new one is much much better but definitely a different style
This is why I watch these channel, great reviews and honest walk-around, soon enough I'll be getting a 2021 road glide special blacked out in the snake venom color thanks to this channel
I know Im randomly asking but does anybody know a tool to log back into an instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Cameron James Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
All of the colors are gorgeous in person , pictures dont really do them justice . As a custom painter myself, i can appreciate the beautiful colors that they use. I just picked up my new 21 RK special in vivid black, its tough to beat
The Road King is the thing holding me back on a 2024 purchase. I love the Road Glide they’re building this year but I have an 18 RG and the Road King truly is a deliverer of an appeal to me. It make sit a tough call.
I'm in the process of purchasing 2021 Road King special 114 , all black ..just came in, tomorrow I see it for the 1st time thx for your review...it help a bit more.. Richie
Nice review Blair. I noticed you ran around 60 to 70 mph and that engine made it sound effortless. I am not a fan of the color but the Roadking is a definite possibility when I get in the market for a new motorcycle.
Ever since watching Million Dollar Boggan, I want a Streetglide Special. HD should have the Bar & Shield logo as their tank badge on all of their bikes.
Actually the RKS was offered in a very limited fourth color called Black Jack Metallic! I know this because I got one! Also the mustache guard has been around for a while and HD still hasn't made lowers for it. I think this is because if a person wants lowers then they would have to swap back to the standard engine guard before adding the lowers. The RKS is a stripped down, lean mean King of the Road bike. The 114 is awesome!!!
I think that may have been one of the "rogue" colors maybe? Harley made a few models in colors not offered on the site or to dealers, they just showed up. lol
@@throttleblip9854 Yes, that's it exactly! From what I've found out the color is an overseas color not meant for the US market and due to scheduling and delivery issues, HD decided produce a limited number of RKS bikes with this color in order to get the bikes out to dealerships on time. I don't know how true this story is or how many dealerships actually got a bike in this color, but if they did it was only one bike.
Between these 2 bikes, I DO like the RK special, but one u took off the windshield from that standard king, maaaan o'maaan did it give the bike a whole 'nother look! Nice!
Why did they move the gas cap on the street glide? Nobody seems to know. Before, the cap looked bulky however it was centered and the tank looked clean. The single gas cap bugs be big time
@@throttleblip9854 yeah good idea. I hope they do a centered and flush gas cap next year. I wanted a new street glide but I legit can’t buy it because it’ll bother me too much. If they continue to do that then I’ll have to buy a 2020
The dealership I frequent can’t keep new bikes either , I much prefer fuel tanks with out hard emblems also it’s a cleaner look nice and smooth , our 2017 tri glide is like that but it has a upgraded paint also
The color is amazing when it changes in the sun. So my wife bought one. I do wish instead of the painted decal on the tank, they used a badge instead. But this looks so much better than the RK standard any day.
@@billkussmaul2940 the special has a lower suspension then the classic. Not as much travel in the shocks. I was listening to Matt Laidlaw talk about the difference between the two. When test riding the two the classic is much smoother ride, plus the front tire has more sidewalk making it better ride.
RDRS is an “option” but it’s not. I confirmed through multiple dealers here in California that it is currently impossible to order it without it. HD is pushing the “option” very heavily. Maybe it’s only like that in CA, maybe not. I wanted a bike without it but that’s not a choice. Possibly buying one tomorrow in vivid black :) from Matt Laidlaw himself
Hi ! Thanks for a great review of this and other bikes. Great channel with great content ! I am getting back on a Harley after many years of other brands. But I can’t decide between the Heritage Classic and the Road King Special. I have ridden the Heritage Classic and really liked it. Found it comfortable, easy to ride and a good package. I have not ridden the Road King Special because the dealer didn’t have as a demo bike. But love the look ! How would you compare the two ? Would love some help and input from you guys. I am looking for a do it all Harley. A bike that is fun on the backroads, highway comfort, that can work for two up riding (but it’s not the primary use), saddlebags and cruise control. Both bikes have all these things. Which one should I go for ? Thanks a bunch! Keep up the great work !
Welcome back and thanks for the kind words! Like you said, both are capable of what it sounds like what you're looking for. I personally lean towards the RK specifically the RK Special. Mostly because of the bigger frame which lends it's self to more comfort on the highway and slightly more room when doing 2up. Also I just personally like the look a little more. I'd find a dealership that has a RK you can ride though. Neither of the dealerships I worked at had "demo" models. If you were interested in a bike, I let you ride THAT bike. Not trying to cause your local dealership to loose out on a sale. Just saying I'd find one who let me ride even if that means you ensuring the one you already went to that you are an actual buyer and not just joy riding.
@@throttleblip9854 Thanks for the reply ! The only thing that makes me shy away form the Road King Special is the added weight. Don’t know if that makes a significant difference in handling but I got along with the Heritage just fine on the demo ride. Did you notice any difference in everyday handling of the bikes ? Thanks again for taking the time ! 😎👍
@@nickyd2913 I can chime in... I own a 2020 Heritage 114, and have ridden the Road King Special and the Heritage back to back. The Heritage is quicker being a little lighter, and seems to "dive into corners" a little harder. It's a little more nimble feeling, especially if you are weaving back and forth (avoiding potholes for example). The Heritage is a little more roomy feeling when riding solo, but the King is a little more roomy for two up. The King feels a little more planted at highway speeds. The Heritage feels a little more stable over mid corner bumps. They are both FANTASTIC bikes... And I would say in a nutshell that the Heritage is a little more "sporty" feeling while the Road King is a little more "cushy". Both very close though. One other thing... Seems like there's a bigger aftermarket for the touring models if you're into customizing. I love them both, and keep wanting to go pick up a RKS anyway 🤣
My thing is i dont want a big fairing with all the electronics but i also dont want a dumb gas tank with a fake gas cap etc. Currently just riding my softail standard but thinking about a bagger (with no fairing)
Lots of option for windshields on the RKS. I run the HD Windsplitter modified to reduce the angle (more upright) and secure to the bike to prevent theft. The angle is to steep on the Windsplitter. Some simple mods can push the shield forward to improve the overhead bubble. Great shield. Stable at 100mph modified.
My choice would be the vivid black and add a Memphis shades batwing. Minimalistic, great wind protection and a old school uncomplicated riding experience. I have short video of my current Road King, look and you will see why I have soft spot for the Road Kings.
I’ve had both and will say the RKS is much better for me. It comes down to what type of riding you will be doing. The hard bags for me were what I really needed and realized it once I didn’t have them. Ultimately why I bought my 21’ RKS
Great Channel. Personally, as a 51 year old Male, I am more partial to the RK Standard/Chrome. A few things I would add to the RK Standard would be a Stage II Torque Cam, Khrome Werks exhaust, Tuner, Auto Tuner, LED Lighting all around. I think the RK is embedded in my mind as a Chromed out old school Harley, whereas, the Blacked out look might be more appealing to the younger population, although the Street Guide Special Gauntlet Gray/Vivid Black, all blacked out is my Nexted purchase.
Great video! Do you notice a big power difference between the 107 and 114? Also, I understand the suspension is different on the special vs the standard. So, does it feel? If you got a vivid black road king special with all of that black what color would you recommend with the windscreen? It seems like if black there is too much black. But I would put a windscreen on it for protection. How much visibility do you lose on the special without the additional lights at night? When will you have a vivid black in at your dealer? Thanks
I do notice a decent amount of difference in the 107/114. You can stage 1 the 107 and open it up a little and close that gap a decent amount but the 114 still feels stronger. I like the smoked windscreen. One of the first videos I did was a RK Special that the owner built. I can't remember if the windscreen was on it at the time but he did a CVO Road King windscreen that looked great. They have one on the floor now! Or they did when I was there on Friday.
@@throttleblip9854 Thanks! I appreciate your responses and feedback. I am looking at RK Special and maybe a RK Standard as a consideration for a bike. The Standard is a 107 and the Special is a 114 as you know. So just thinking about the differences. Thanks
@@p-dub7422 it’s a big difference the money you would have to spend to upgrade the motor to be a 114 or 117 is Thousands get the special and put the Holins Screamin eagle shocks on it 100 % worth every penny! The shocks are awesome they improve the bike drastically and can adjust for highway riding or stiffen it up if your laying into it in the turns! Since I put them on My Rd., King special. I can ride it like my 2021 low rider s I had!
Road Kings are the best!! That color(Snake venom) is interesting. For a while in the late 90's and early 2000's everyone in my area was putting this paint job on their tuner cars. Definitely wouldn't want it on my bike. Especially not for an extra $1,000.00
The standard is the better-looking bike with the passing lights in vivid black is the classic road king. I don't like the venom paint color or the emblem on the gas tank, it should have been chrome that's just my opinion.
When you said lowers I would think if you want a stripped down bike like the roadking special lowers are the farthest thing you would want on a rebel type bike same as street glide barebones wear chaps ?☠️
They need to include the sleek road king cvo windshield on the special (smh harley being cheap/ slick again wanna charge the customer more money ) love my heritage chulo doe
It’s good to have your own opinion, but the passing lamps look much better. Not clutter at all in my opinion. That bike looks like a mood ring with its eyes poked out. Just my opinion. Lol
Awesome paint but why ever did they put custom paint right on the tank. A small number ok but that big custom paint right threw the Harley Davidson it ruins that awesome paint job!
I'm surprised that HD sells any bikes with the 107. The 114 is a true big bore stroker. 114 has a 4.5" stroke and 4.16 bore running 10.5:1 compression. For those of us who watched the custom bike scene in the 90's; an engine like this would have costed thousands of dollars to build. This engine is begging for a cam and a dyno tune. 114" of high compression scream machine out of the box!
I just noticed that as well! I recorded it so much later than the other content it wasn’t close to the files when getting things together. Rookie move.
I said honey look at that road king she said I don't like that paint but I love the paint looks like it will be a sand dune bike I like that paint also
I prefer the standard bags as well and as far as the engine guards, they're not welded to the frame and there are other options if one chooses, so people shouldn't complain, but you know what they say.. you can satisfy some of the people some of the time but you can't satisfy all of the people all of the time.
I bought my 2021 road king special today. I went to this from a 2016 fatbob. I absolutely love my road king, and especially the 114 engine
That is awesome!
How does manoeuvrability compare to the FatBob, please?

I bought a 2021 vivid black one and love it. Best bike I ever had......
Only have 200 miles on right now.
@@jeffyoung6220 How many miles now?
Nicely done!
I like the looks of the special but I like the standard for the ride. You can feel the benefits of the taller suspension.
you can install 13s on the special I put them on my cvo
@@kevincraig8257 are you happy with the 13's?
Love this paint color!!
Are those the stock pipes? Because it sounds perfect the way it is. I love the sound of that 114.

I was hoping to see this in the Sun as well! We did see a brief glimpse of the one bag :)
Snake bite venom looks great outside
3 years ago and watching this and it still has the 114 today 2024. Would love to see the 117 in it 29$$$ for a 2024 model year
Loving the special , But that Costom paint badge is sooooo silly
I love the 3 headlights no clutter for me.
The color is amazing when it changes in the sun. So my wife bought one. I do wish instead of the painted decal on the tank, they used a badge instead. But this looks so much better than the RK standard any day.

@@ronmarvicsin7709 thanks
it has lower shocks in the rear. it's easy to change them out for something taller.

Would u trade in a road glide for the road king
All that this bike now needs is the new digital dash from the Sportster
THAT would be epic!!! I hadn't thought about that but that would be really cool if they did it.
I have a 2020 RKS with a 131 eng I will stay with it no matter how much you put in one you will never get your money back 😅
How tall are you? I'm 6'2" tall and my Indian Springfield fits me perfectly. I'm curious how the Road King would fit me.

HD parts book doesnt recommend hi way pegs be fitted to the chopped engine guard?
Great review. I love this bike but I'd have it in black
Love the RK Special. Desperately needs a power port somewhere.
Enjoyed the review!
My choice would be the vivid black and add a Memphis shades batwing. Minimalistic, great wind protection and a old school uncomplicated riding experience. I have short video of my current Road King, look and you will see why I have soft spot for the Road Kings.
Are they usually this quiet? I’m looking into Harleys and don’t know a lot.
I like the Deadwood green
Form over function. Looks nice but would take the standard RK.
Thanks for the review. Wish they had it in red
They make the standard version in red. I know it's not quite the same though..
Road king special or Fat Boy or road glide special
It seems to have RDRS yet you didn't cover it.

What is the stock handlebar height??
Even the special would get the black passing lights and the windshield mounts and screen.
Custom paint sticker will add value to the bike in years to come we hen everyone has forgotten about the fact Harley did it.
That's bikes $23,000 good to know I was going to sign paperwork this Saturday for the same bike at $30,000 but not no more.

What is the name of this music ❤️🔥
That's a great color
Nice comparison

I definitely love that snake venom paint on those bikes. But damn son 74 in a 40 lol.
The Speedo has been altered to make the videos look cooler and do not reflect the actual speed. 😉🤫
Hum. I might just have to ponder that 😉🧐
WTF! “Custom Paint” graphic looks tacky. The bike however is sublime. Always been a fan of the stretched bags too.
Yeah I've always loved the Road King and now the RK Special.
Well done!
Awesome paint but why ever did they put custom paint right on the tank. A small number ok but that big custom paint right threw the Harley Davidson it ruins that awesome paint job!
This is jewel beetle color!
But they called snake venom
...lol
hahahaha
Is that what we call a "June Bug?"
I'm surprised that HD sells any bikes with the 107. The 114 is a true big bore stroker. 114 has a 4.5" stroke and 4.16 bore running 10.5:1 compression. For those of us who watched the custom bike scene in the 90's; an engine like this would have costed thousands of dollars to build. This engine is begging for a cam and a dyno tune. 114" of high compression scream machine out of the box!
I bought my RKS 2020 in November. I put 19" bars and lot mods on it already.
You'll get tired of those bars in time. Trust me. I run KST Outlaw 10" apes on my 2020 RKS. Great handling and comfort.
noooooo you forgot the walk-around in the sun!
I just noticed that as well! I recorded it so much later than the other content it wasn’t close to the files when getting things together. Rookie move.
Your LHD roads in America freak me out watching the go pro footage. I cringe on every corner you take a corner. Cheers Joey from Australia.
I said honey look at that road king she said I don't like that paint but I love the paint looks like it will be a sand dune bike I like that paint also
Not much different than the 2019 model. Great bike!
The variable colour looks so 1990's,
And that's why I like it
The blackout look has been done before by harley and will start pealing like a banana in five years
If you leave it outside.
💯👍👍
Did they get that color from Ford? God it looked hideous on those 96’ mustangs
Maybe a janmaha r1 fits you more….😂😂😂😂
I don't get it..
I prefer the standard bags as well and as far as the engine guards, they're not welded to the frame and there are other options if one chooses, so people shouldn't complain, but you know what they say.. you can satisfy some of the people some of the time but you can't satisfy all of the people all of the time.
That is not a good looking as my 2014 in mysterious red. Yeah I dont like that bike at all and i hate the crash bar. Les metal les money i suppose.
Got a '15 in mysterious red sunglo and blackened cayenne sunglo, wouldn't change it for anything!!! It's a fantastic color combo!!
Hate that custom paint look and also the standard looked a lot better,using the term (clutter) was so wrong and unnecessary....🙄
The color is nice but ou better not scratch it. No matching that color.
Front and rear lights look and spell cheap to me.
I see these newer models go by these day and to me it’s just one big blah. Dead!

No windshield no thx
Ugliest color they have. I didn’t like it on the Mustang and other cars years ago. Other than “custom” paint jobs you don’t see it anymore.
Agree about that stupid custom paint sticker , what dork at HD thought that looks cool, gay all day
Ugly with the purple color on it…!
