Been busy lately and haven't rode the Valkyrie in a month
or so. Needed to get my inspection today. In the 30's here
this morning and when I tried to crank it she was cobwebbed
up pretty good even with non ethanol gas being in it.
Finally cleared up after a bit and back to normal. She cranks
faster than any bike I have ever had. Well except for the other
Valkyrie I sold by mistake.

yah, it has been over 2 months not fired up here and still need to run it downtown to get some 91 NON ethanol gas in it 1 mile away to nearest gas station after I inflate the tires again am sure due to it snowing 3 times already and TONS of road salt all over the last 2 weeks.  I should just put the darn thing up and then it might come December get warm again, right?????????? tickedoff    That is like you said the battery cranks over especially after next week's lows into single digits for temps.

Pretty lucky down here. Can ride year round most of the time.
There is an Exxon 2.5 miles from my house with 90 Octane Non
Ethanol. I hate Ethanol gas.
