A Harley-Davidson with a touring pedigree? Look no further than the Road King. This descendant of the 1940s FL model (rebranded as “King” in the 90s) offers a rich heritage for riders who value tradition.
As the most affordable option in Harley’s touring lineup, the Road King boasts a $24,999 price tag and comes packed with everything you need for conquering long distances.
But for some riders, the stock Road King is just a starting point. Harley refers to it as a “factory custom,” yet many people are lured to the expanse of aftermarket components and end up building unique Road Kings.
This trend continues to flourish, and today’s custom example takes inspiration from a true Hollywood icon. A one-of-a-kind Harley-Davidson Road King is turning heads as it gears up for auction.
This heavily customized bike started its life as a stock 2012 Road King, but a mysterious garage has transformed it into a head-turning masterpiece.
The most striking feature is the eye-catching Marilyn Monroe airbrushing that adorns the fuel tank, hard bags, and fender. While the scenes may not be directly from a movie, they add undeniable flair to the design.
