Pros Cons of Harley-Davidson Road King

Pros

  • Proper retro cruiser design
  • Comfortable ergonomics
  • Torque-heavy engine is a gem

Cons

  • Heavy in weight
  • Ride quality is a bit stiff
  • Lacks electronic aids

Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Road King is a bagger and offers solid road presence, on account of its sheer size. The Road King has been discontinued in India and one may find models in the used two-wheeler segment or through Harley-Davidson owners group but we recommend to stay clear of it. The new H-D Road Glide makes more sense as a full-blown bagger, if you do want to buy one!

Verdict

The BMW K 1600 GTL is a perfecetly balanced, if big, touring machine with an incredibly smooth inline six-cylinder engine. The K 1600 GTL has everything going for it, solid road presence, comfortable ergonomics and ride, a brilliant engine and solid brakes. The only downside is the price and the lack of some new-age electronics and features.
