I've been mostly riding the 1500 this fall. I never have any trouble with
the black bike, but I guess even a fuel injected bike can gum up if ignored.

I pulled it out, checked the air and fired it up in one button press  cooldude ...

I took it up to the driveway and washed off the dust and threw on my helmet.

I didn't even get out to the paved road before I was in a parade of kids on
mini bikes and carts, I joined them out to where they turned around and
then I went on down the road.

Right away I came upon a Harley rider with one of his hard-bags open...
I beeped him off the road and pointed it out, he was appreciative.

The black bike seems ready to head out to Montana again. I bet I'd
REALLY hate the weather out there this time of year  Cheesy ...

Your 1800 Valk setup is sweet. Do you know if the 1800 has overdrive in fourth as well as fifth. Recently discovered that about the Wing of which I was unaware .

Thanks... the setup was not easy to arrive at quickly...

There are differences between a regular wing and Valkyrie wing beside the obvious
"naked bike" differences... rear subframe... externals of the front forks... but I don't
think there's much different in the motor or transmission...
