There are three “Specials” in the 2021 Harley Davidson lineup, the Road King Special is the no-nonsense brute of the three. Building off the already excellent Road King package, Harley Davidson just pumps up a few welcome areas.

An American-made hotrod always begins with more power, and to that end HD fits the Milwaukee-Eight® 114 engine, increasing power to 100 HP and 119 lbs-ft of torque. From front to back the Road King Special gets the full blackout treatment, powertrain covers, mufflers, headlamp nacelle, and fork, as well as many of the smaller components, were touched. The Daymaker LED headlamp, stretched saddlebags, and Prodigy wheels complete the Special treatment.

    Where do you find parts, never mind just walking into a store for an old hd?

    I have a 92 fat boy and cannot find a pulley shaft.
