Just dropped in to say hi. currently ride a 99 road king but planning on adding a roadstar within the next couple months. Been riding for 24 years, my wife rides also.
Wanted to come on here so I can learn some more about these bikes before I decide on what year or model that I want.

thanks for the info. I checked out the strat also. Just feels to big for my tastes. (nice bike though) I won't be leaving the bike stock. not sure what i'm going to do with it, probaly make a bobber out of it. I like the softail style frame that the road star has. the weight, size, and feel is very good as stock. other than the handlebars (i didn't like) I could ride the RS as is.
Been trying to find the answers to a few question:
did they have 1 carb or 2
does 1 fluid lube everything? (engine, trans, primary)
did they have a model with the silver motor but a chrome front end
any difference from 99-03
are the bars 1"
