This game was played at InZane 9 but I don't remember who won it. I think Stude31 did...but I don't remember the age.
I know I won't hold up at 43...

Stude31 is an old guy of thirty-somerthing.
As of the end of InZane IX i believe even Nick was into his thirties.
I met a young man in Indiana that may be the youngest. |

I'm 37 now, but was only 28 when I bought my Valk...
But I know there are definitely younger than me out there!

i do believe that the fellow from GA....who helped with the Scooter delivery back several years ago for the Cheaha Rally....Sherrill Wright i think is his name...his son, Jake...had just gotten a Valk when they came to Cheaha LAST year. I know his son couldn't have been more than 21 or 22 ....AT THE MOST? Maybe even younger. They are from Rhome GA. But he doesn't post much. But his son rode to Cheaha last year on his "new" Valk. In fact, he may only be 18 or 19???

I have had the honor of winning the "Youngest Rider at Inzane" award at two different Inzanes. So, for a while at least, I was in the bottom of this crowd. Honestly, I was only beating a few guys by a matter of months.
The other day a new rider (with a burgandy bike) swore he was 26. That has me beat.

How old is the Duc "Man"? Isn't he on a Valk now? Duc Man pictured on the right per Frye. Raymond He was 18 when he bought the Duc new and we rode to DOTS and those golden local roads. He was 21 when he bought the valk and he and Autumn took their trip out West and then to Texas. He's 22 now. Although he started ridin’ dirt bikes at 3 (homemade training wheels on a Z50R) my Valk was the first street bike he had ever ridden. He rides the Duc like it’s a unicycle but I would too if I could.  |

He just graduated from High School this past June at age 18, and has been riding his own Valk for well over a year. And RJ, if you're only 14 that makes me about 10. Wouldn't it be fun to be young again and know what we know now, probably wouldn't live as long. |

my son leo is 16 and takes off on the valk's he will be 17 next year and will be at inzane x he has a wing but loves the valk but who would not ? he is a member here too i am hoping to sell the wifes vt and his wing and get him his own valk next spring .the cool part is he is not a hot rodder he works on them with me and it gives him a lot of respect for the way to treat things. the little crap head must be doing something right his female is 3 years older than him .. turst me he has the best ride

23 22 when she found her way into my life! Hey Mikey! What do the other guys your age have to say about the Valkyrie and you riding one? I'm screwed... LOL... It's not a good idea to get the best bike of your life when you're this young! My dad has a BMW K1200R and I think the Valk is more stable, better power curve (can't beat the Bimmer's top end), and more comfortable. You also dont have to stand on your tip toeswhen you're stopped.I'm just hoping that someone comes out with a bike that's as good or better than my 03 Std. otherwise I'm going to have a million miles on by the time i'm 50! |
