2021 Harley Davidson Road King Features

A powerful, smooth-running engine with crisp throttle response and a pure, soul-satisfying rumble.

Designed to help prevent the wheels from locking under braking to assist the rider in maintaining control when braking in a straight-line. ABS operates independently on front and rear brakes to keep the wheels rolling and help prevent uncontrolled wheel lock in urgent situations.

Born in the ’60s, when chrome ruled the streets. Big and commanding, it’s built with the latest in materials and technology for a long distance high beam and wide low beam.

High-performing front and rear suspension, with easily hand-adjustable rear shocks put you in control of a plush ride.

A 18-inch front and 18-inch rear Slicer II wheel to match in the back are stunning and lightweight.

Tight on the outside, roomy on the inside. The hinges are simple and clean and the lids open with one touch of one hand.
