05 road king, 60,000 miles, how many will it go?

• Add to quote

My motor is seems to be getting louder, how many miles will they go before overhaul is needed? I've changed synthetic oil each 3,000 since I got it at 14,000.  

thefly said: My motor is seems to be getting louder, how many miles will they go before overhaul is needed? I've changed synthetic oil each 3,000 since I got it at 14,000. Click to expand...

engine or exhaust is louder?....the muffs can get baked and get a bit louder...and yes check the tensioners if thats whats getting louder  

My wife rode hers almost 140k with only changing the tensioners. Sold it a couple years ago and as far as I know its still going. Oil was changed about every 3 to 4 k miles using synthetic.  

There are way too many variables to estimate how long it will last. A well maintain and not abused Twin Cam can go well beyond the 100K mark possibly beyond 200K. An abused one may not make it 10K.  

You are wasting $$$ on the oil. My '99 RK went 135K on GTX @ 5000 miles. Sold it to a neighbor who immediately went to "the best oil" and having it serviced by a kid who was younger than the bike, with troubles starting at $4ooo... sorry I sold it to him.  

If you check your owners manual you will see that Harley recommends oil change every 5000 miles. That's under normal operation. If you beat it to death and run it in extremely dirty conditions then maybe 4000 is appropriate.  

If you haven't upgraded cam chain tensioners yet do yourself a favor and get that done asap. Then ride it another 100,000 miles. Neglect those spring loaded shoes, start thinking what your next bike will be.  

I put 96k on my twinkie before a top. It didn't really need it. Still going strong at 135k +or-. I would have to do some math for an accurate figure.  

It will run as many miles and operating hours'' until it reaches the break down location'' check the odometer'' thats jow many miles it will go... Ok seriously if the cam chains have eaten the tensioner shoes'' .ore noise could be the metal to metal sound of the chain runnimg on steel... also'' if the shoes are toast'' more noise could also be from the rest of the engine' due to oil passages being clogged with tensioner material'' all that plastic is picked up by the pump and distributed..  

synthetic oil will make your engine noisier, Read your owners manual and use the oil they specify  

Do you change the oil or do you service your bike? Do all the adjustments? Sometimes your primary chain can get sloppy.  

i replaced my cam tensioners at 90,000 miles and they needed it. that particular set up you should have them check the tensioners next time in. as far as oil change you are wasting money in my opinion. i used synthetic and changed it every 10,000 miles. sold it at 157k and still going strong. had the harley shop do all my service.  

My ZX14 has slip on mufflers, V&H. The fiberglass packing does go and it does get louder. I'm not sure if it's the same way with your exhaust. The exhaust on my Heritage softail are original and I found it at 20 years old w/ under 1k miles. First Harley so I really don't know.  

I’m with the 3000 mile oil change group, it’s a cheap insurance for my 01 RK. With having cam tensioners that can possibly put pieces in my oil I am more comfortable with frequent oil changes. I would never wait to the 5000+ mark nor would I let my bike sit for months in the winter without riding it at least once a month. When researching oils I decided on synthetic but did hear from most that it is a noisier oil.  

I hope you're not ignoring the cam tensioner shoe inspection just because you change your oil more often. Those grenading tensioner shoes will still bite you in the ***.  

At 60K I would prolly do the chain tensioners again as well as the tappets, address anything else you find in the cam chest that needs work. Put some rocker lockers in it while the rocker supports are off. Then just run through the 60K service check list. Pull the wheels and give the wheel bearings a proper looking at. Flush the brake fluid. If its injected, change the fuel filter and check the lines in the tank. Past that, you can run it till it starts blowing smoke on a pull.  

I think thefly has flown.

Harley Davidson Heritage Softail Vs Road King: Which One Is The Best & Why?

When it comes to motorcycles, Harley Davidson is one of the best makers. They have one for every occasion including touring.

This makes it quite unsurprising that two of the most preferred motorcycles for touring comes from them. While they come from the same maker, there are fundamental differences that make one suitable over the other.

There have been arguments about the differences, and which is a better choice. Which is worth its price.

What we do know is that the better one for touring has to take care of the comfortability of the rider as well as the ability of the bike to run for a long time without having any issues.

We have put together helpful tips and information that would help you make better decisions on what to look for before purchasing your motorcycle.

Why is Heritage Softail & Road King so popular?

Harley-Davidson is a brand that has over the years built a reputation around making good and quality motorcycles.

They produce a large variety of bikes and ultimately almost every rider wants to add one to their collection. Many users feel a deep and innate connection with the brand. It appeals to them.

This is why it isn’t far-fetched that several discussions relating to the brand and its products pop up on occasions.

The two most popular families that enter the discuss radar are the Softail and the Road king families.

Across both families, the Heritage Softail and the Road King bikes are the most comparable.

For users that are undecided about which is better, buying the two would have been a great solution to their problem . However the bikes happen to be quite pricey, so one has to be chosen.

Buyers often dwell on why they should pick one over the other and they want convincing reasons as well as an assurance of getting good value for their money.

This is why there is constant banter over which is better. Some might argue, it is road king, others will affirm it is Softail. At the end of the day, it all gets down to personal choice.

Road King vs Heritage Softail Classic which is Best for Newbies?

If you are just starting bike riding, then you should get as much information as you can about the bikes by paying attention to the Heritage Softail Vs Road King argument.

A more user-friendly one is the best one to go for in your case. In this area, Heritage Softail wins. This is because it has much better ergonomics.

The difference begins at the handlebar. The Road King’s handlebar has an unsuitable beach cruiser bend because of its size and positioning on the motorcycle.

This is made far worse by the floorboards which are placed at a higher position. The effect of this is that the hands of the rider come quite close to the legs making riding uncomfortable as the journey gets longer.

On the other hand, the Heritage Softail has a specially shaped handle and low floorboards that give riders a lot of room to place their legs.

This makes maneuvering with the Heritage Softail easy. The Heritage Softail also comes with a backrest which the rider can make use of when the motorcycle is not in motion.

The Road King does not come with any kind of rest so the user has to remain in the riding position.

Heritage Softail Vs Road King

Speed handling.

While the Road King offers limited comfort, it does a great job concerning its engine during high-speed travel.

As soon as the Heritage Softail hits about 85mph, the rider starts to feel the vibration of the engine but the Road King continues to provide a smooth ride even when at high speed.

This difference is due to the way the engine is mounted on the two bikes.

The Road King’s engine is rubber-mounted while Heritage Softail is mounted with the new counterbalance method.

Heritage Softail is not so good with high speed but this touring motorcycle has very good low-speed agility owing to its lower-sung chassis.

The positioning of its chassis as well as the low height of its seat make it a great choice for a small rider.

Making Turns

Heritage Softail tackles tight turns easily but the opposite can be said for it when it comes to cornering turns which are ever-present on highways.

It happens to have a low center of gravity which makes navigating corner turns quite difficult.

Its board begins to drag much before its counterpart.

The Road King on the other hand as a high swung Chassis which gives it an edge in this area.

It easily heads through a corner turn at good lean angles and avoids scraping the highway.

Motorcycle suspension

Not every road is smooth and stable. while touring riders are more likely to come across roads that have more cracks and bumps.

For this reason, a touring bike needs to have a very good suspension.

The two bikes have a suspension level difference with the Road King on the better end.

Its suspension is high enough to absorb any shakes that would be caused by small cracks or bumps.

This is good but it makes the rider feel somewhat disconnected from the road.

While this is what some riders like, others love to have a better idea of what the road feels like. For people like this, Heritage Softail is a better fit.

It has less suspension so it provides a more realistic view of what the road is like.

Transmission

This is another area where the Heritage Softail practically floors the Road king.

It is worth mentioning that the Heritage Softail is fitted with the updated tyranny-built gearbox which comes with the Twin Cam Beta.

This incredible gearbox makes sure that shifting is a smooth and quiet process. It also features a tighter clutch pull.

Saddle Bags

The Road King has hard leather-covered saddlebags that are durable and waterproof. Unfortunately, this is where the good stops.

The saddlebags are quite unsuitable. They are hinged on the passenger side instead of on top. This complicates loading and unloading. They look good but the functionality is way off.

The Heritage Softail is fitted with soft leather bags which happen to be rather small. These saddlebags were a good fit for earlier versions of the bike.

Now that the bike has been upgraded the makers should consider upgrading the bags too.

Apart from comfortability and other areas mentioned above, many basic features in the Heritage Softail are different in the Road King. Here is a Heritage Softail vs Road King table that highlights these features:

Biking is a great way to stay in shape, as well as it is fun. However, the comfortability of a bike also depends on its purpose and the rider’s build.

These too must be considered before a choice is made.

The Heritage Softail is the ideal bike for riders who weigh less than 200 pounds while the Road King is sturdier and better for heavier and taller riders. it sure would provide a much better power-to-weight ratio.

Softail is more comfortable for shorter journeys like visiting friends or running errands. It has a lower seat, which makes it easy to stop.

On the other hand, the Road King has seats that have a larger surface area. It is sure to be kinder in your bum.

Road King is better on long distances, where you are looking at moving at a higher speed, with fewer stops. It can travel up to 15-20 miles more than the Heritage Softail.

Road King with a height of 705 mm. This better height makes it easy for you to lean forward and places you in an aerodynamic position necessary for your trip.

The road king has a more solid build which helps out with its distance. This is probably why it is a considerably higher weight.

It also stops the Heritage Softail with about 50mm in length. This gives it an edge when two-up riding is needed as it gives more room for the passenger on board.

The Heritage Softail was not outrightly made with two-up touring in mind.

The length also helps to provide more space for storage which is very important while touring.

FAQ’s of Heritage Softail Classic Vs Road King

1.heritage softail vs road king. which is a better touring motorcycle.

For touring, the Heritage Softail is a better motorcycle choice. This is because of its superb riding position and it’s overall easy feel. But of course, opinions might differ.

An ideal comfortable bike for two-up touring would be a Road king Bike. It also has more storage space so if you tend to carry a lot around it would be the best choice for you.

2. Is the Heritage Softail a good touring bike?

The answer would be yes because the Heritage Softail puts the rider in a good riding position. The position ensures that the rider is comfortable.

Another reason is how much of an easy feel it gives the rider so riding can be nice and easy.

3.The Harley Davidson Heritage Softail Description?

A Harley Davidson Softail is a motorcycle that has its rear suspension springs or shock absorbers positioned out of direct view, such that it looks like a hard-tail motorcycle.

Its engine is also positioned in such a way that projects a vintage feel to it.

4. What is the difference between a Heritage Softail and a Road king bike?

There are a couple of notable differences between the two motorcycles.

• The Heritage Softail has a lower-slung chassis compared to the Road King.
• The Road King is heavier and longer than the Heritage Softail.
• The Road King has better suspension and ground clearance compared to the Heritage Softail.
• The Heritage Softail is more user-friendly and comfortable.
• The Road King’s engine is mounted using the rubber mount methodology while the Heritage Softail is mounted with the newer counterbalance method.
• The Heritage Softail is much more agile and maneuverable. This makes it suitable for everyday commuting also so you would get more use out of it.
• Better wind protection on the Road King.

5. Is the Road King a Good Bike For Touring?

Yes, it is a good bike for touring. A Road King is an exquisite touring bike with a good frame that provides a stimulating and unique road feel. It has an upright riding position that puts you in great control of the bike.

The road king comes with a rubber-mounted engine, a six-speed gearbox, and a six-gallon fuel tank.

It is also very comfortable as it comes with a pillion seat, a floorboard, and passenger grab rails.

It is versatile, cruises easily, and provides good comfort for your touring.

6. What is the engine CC of a Heritage Softail?

The engine CC where CC refers to cubic centimeters is the volume of air and fuel that can be pushed through the cylinders of an automobile.

The Heritage Softail has a 1745 engine cc.

Still in Doubt?

These questions and the features explained above give you a pretty good idea of both automobiles.

If you are still unsure, you need more information or you want a second opinion, here is a link to a YouTube video that could help or you can use Adobe, check tips on this link,  that could help you.

In this video, you can see both sides by side and watch an experienced rider compare and contrast. May the best bike win!

The Verdict

The Heritage Softail Vs Road King argument is an ongoing one that changes. This is due to many things such as yearly upgrades on each of the motorcycles.

The upgrades greatly affect how suitable each motorcycle is. Following the latest upgrades on both the Heritage Softail appears to be the better choice for touring for many reasons.

Although it tends to emit vibrations at very high speeds and has less suspension. These two issues are not a deal-breaker when it comes to touring.

It has less weight, better transmission, better ergonomics which greatly impacts the rider’s comfort.

The R&K Guide To Moscow

The World Cup is upon us, but you could argue that it’s already a relic from another era, a time when Putin was looking for peaceable engagement with the West, before he annexed Crimea and unleashed his trolls on the world. But if ordinary Russians are supposed to play the part of pariah, they haven’t been told. It has been a long time since Moscow was this pleasant to visit. The city center is safe, sanitized, ready for your visit. Yes, the calm is a sign of an increasingly efficient autocracy. But we’ve known Moscow through many iterations, and for the casual visitor, this is one of the best yet. (Visit our St. Petersburg guide here.)
