RULE THE ROAD
Harley-Davidson® Road King® Special Book a test rideIf you want to know what ruling the road truly feels like, reach for the mini-apehanger bars on the Road King® Special and send some fuel to its new Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine. This is top-of-the-line power and a look that will stop traffic. Blacked out, stripped down, rolling on turbine wheels. There are stretched bags and a black police-style headlight nacelle with a black trim ring. There’s a dark side to our heritage. You’re looking at the king of it.
