Harley Davidson FLHRS/I Road King Custom (2004 – 2005)

Harley Davidson FLHRS/I Road King Custom (2004 - 2005)

The Harley-Davidson FLHRS/I Road King Custom embodies the essence of custom motorcycling, boasting a unique blend of style and substance. Its 40mm constant velocity carburetor, paired with the accelerator pump, provides a smooth and responsive power delivery. In contrast, the electronic sequential port fuel injection system on the FLHR/S model offers precise control over fuel flow, giving riders an even more engaging experience.

The Road King Custom’s styling is inspired by the 1978 FLHS Electra Glide “Stripped” model, with its sleek, streamlined design and “smoothie” theme. Standout features include the lowered rear suspension, pullback “beach bars,” clean leather saddlebags, and chromed front and rear wheels.

Riding the Road King Custom is a sensory experience, with its powerful engine purring beneath you as you carve through twisties or cruise down the highway. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or just starting out, this bike’s comfort, road-worthiness, and attitude make it an ideal choice for anyone looking to own a piece of motorcycling history – The Harley-Davidson FLHRS/I Road King Custom is the ultimate expression of custom motorcycle design and engineering perfection.
