The 2022 Road King Special (Model FLHRXS) showcases a rugged, military-inspired attitude in the rare factory Mineral Green Denim finish. This distinctive matte-metallic green blankets the stretched fuel tank and the extended hard saddlebags that drop down low to frame the exhaust. Breaking heavily from the traditional chrome look of the standard Road King, the Special swaps out all brightwork for a fully blacked-out treatment across the engine covers, front forks, mini-ape handlebars, and exhaust shields, all riding on a set of striking gloss-black Prodigy cast-aluminum wheels beneath a clean front end anchored by a bright Daymaker LED headlight.
Commanding the chassis is the heavy-hitting Milwaukee-Eight® 114 V-Twin engine, unleashing 95 horsepower and 118 ft-lbs of immediate low-end torque through a smooth 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission. A high-performance dual-bending valve front fork and easily adjustable rear emulsion shocks keep the stripped-down bagger planted and plush. The custom-inspired package is rounded out by standard cornering-rider safety enhancements, ensuring rock-solid highway stability and precise braking control.
