If I had more time to ride, I'd keep my Softail Slim and bagger, but I also can't stand to see them sit. Love how the slim handles... have rode lots of miles and even some gravel, hard to beat that!!!...

I am the second owner of the bike. I purchased the bike about a year ago with roughly 2,500 miles on it. Immediately took the bike to New River Harley Davidson to do a full inspection, maintenance, change all fluids, and replace the rear tire with oem tire. The bike also has aftermarket Vance and Hines Exhaust. Bike does has 10,834 miles on it currently and is scheduled for a 10k mile service at the Harley Dealership next month. The bike is in immaculate condition and selling is the absolute last thing I won't to do. My family is growing and that it the only reason.
I do have both keys to the bike, the original owners manual, and the original owners service guide. I do still have the embroidered 100th anniversary passenger seat as well as the badged 100th anniversary windshield.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of owning a 2008 Harley Road King, and it pains me to say that it has been nothing short of a headache on two wheels. The combination of chronic electrical issues, particularly battery drain and bad ground problems, has turned what should have been an enjoyable riding experience into a constant struggle.
First and foremost, the ongoing battery drain problems were a nightmare. No matter how diligently I maintained the bike, it seemed like the battery just couldn't hold a charge for more than a few days. Replacing the battery didn't solve the issue, and trips to the mechanic became a regular occurrence. The frustration of being stranded due to an unexpected dead battery became an unfortunate part of the ownership experience.
Adding insult to injury, the bad ground issues exacerbated the electrical woes. Constantly chasing down wiring problems and dealing with shorts became a routine maintenance task. The lack of reliability in the electrical system was not only inconvenient but also a major safety concern. It's disheartening to invest in a bike that can't be trusted to start reliably and without issues.
To make matters worse, the maintenance costs for the 2008 Harley Road King were exorbitant. Frequent visits to the dealership and specialized mechanics drained my wallet faster than the battery on this ill-fated machine. The combination of high parts costs and labor charges made routine maintenance feel like a financial burden, turning what should be a joyous pastime into a regrettable expense.
In conclusion, the 2008 Harley Road King may have the classic looks and a storied brand behind it, but the chronic electrical issues, specifically the battery drain and bad ground problems, along with the high maintenance costs, make it a regrettable choice for anyone seeking a reliable and cost-effective ride. Save yourself the frustration and explore other options in the market that offer a better balance of performance and reliability.

The Softail Standard is a wonderful bike at an entry level to Harley Davison. I think it's a great way to not just take it "as is" but to make it like it you want by adding the look and bling you prefer.

The Softail Standard is a wonderful bike at an entry level to Harley Davison. I think it's a great way to not just take it "as is" but to make it like it you want by adding the look and bling you prefer. The lighter weight makes it a dream to handle and the powerful 107 engine gives it more punch than you'll ever need. This thing is a rocket. Two years off the showroom floor and I've had zero issues. It's a great cruiser that I would happily jump on and do a couple of hundred miles easily. For longer trips you might want a heavier bike but that's not what it is designed for. It is a comfortable and spirited bike in the Harley barn.

I have been continually working on trying to get my registration completed Since April 6,2022….. I am usually a fairly patient person but found “incompetent” situation’s rearing it’s Fucking Ugly Head pretty much the entire time during the process. Not to mention HD has lost credibility in my life with the pricing for there products. You have lost your mind in today’s market. Catch up. Fuck the Asshole Stock Holder.

You get all comfort without having a permanent fixed fairing stuck to you bike. 20 seconds and the quick detach windshield is off. Just as easy to put it back on. You get two bikes in one with the roadking. Great bike like I said I've owned 3 of em. A 2001 a 2010 and a 2019 currently. Get one you will NOT be disappointed!
