Hello Again
  I want to add a few items and dont know whats popular. I still want a good light bar or some additional driving lights for night. And I would like to add the led lights in the engine compartment. I've seen some of the light kits , I would like some input on whats popular, easy install, good quality, ect.
  thanks for any info.

Moto-light https://www.motolight.com/ makes some lights, and they have a Valkyrie specific kit, that I think are great
and also a safety enhancement. Here's a picture with my motolights turned on... people look twice when they see that triangle
pattern coming at them:



The turned off lights in the picture are Rivco lights, Cobra (the curved ones made from billet) are also really well liked, but both
are almost unobtainable... Big Mike might $till have some: http://www.valkyrieblingandmore.com/ you need to send him email, don't just
look on his site.

What I think would make for good (though not very glamorous) Valkyrie driving lights is the kit from
Big Bike Things http://www.bigbikethings.com/winddeflectors.html... add some Rivco (or whatever)
halogens, find a good wiring diagram (lots of Valkyrie specific stuff here: http://www.rattlebars.com/valkfaq/circuits.html ) or
this one from Rivco is the one I used:



The Big Bike Things kit includes fork wings, which I like always, and most people would like in the winter time anyhow...
