I'm sure the government would put a sin tax on it if they could. I'll be forever grateful, that while I'm still able to ride I have the best riding machine ever made. And It's paid for, Yeehaa. cooldude

My wife would be jealous of the Valk but I think she loves it as much as I do.

I couldn't agree with you more. Everytime I swing my leg over her I just get chills just thinking about what is about to happen.  Shocked

I'm with you.  Even though my Valkyrie is new to me, I LOVE IT and I don't think anyone could offer me enough money for it.

 I know how you all feel. I took mine to a bike show last night. Got a lot of people asking what it was. Most were amazed on how big the engine was. I wanted to do the nickle trick but we were in a outdoor pavilion so they would not let us start them. One guy asked my how much Horsepower it had. I said around 110 with the Viking Pipes. Another guy nearby laughed and said "is that all". Then proceeded to tell me he had 110 with his Harley. I said "OK, how much did that power cost you". He told me 8 grand. I then proceeded to tell him my bike started with 104 HP. All I have is a 6 degree trigger wheel and the Pipes. Total cost of the pipes and the wheel around $1,300. He didn't comment much more after that. If I had thought of it at the time I would have challenged him to a race. To the Smokies and back.

Oh yea I forgot to say. I won Metric Cruiser Class.

Yup, its whole body sensory pleasure overload.
Run 3 gears then hit 5th and sit there. lettem catch up and youll be the talk of the next rest stop.
HAHA "To the smokies and back" Does that include an offer to run for parts?
