Beautiful pics. Mich looks like a great place. Wish I could've been there.
Not meaning to change the subject, but one thing I've noticed looking at pics of Valks on this site (and not just yours), but it seems that the majority of Valk owners when parking their bike, leave it with the front wheel facing straight ahead. I do this too. Don't know why, just do.
However, almost without fail, every Harley owner I've ever seen parks their rides with the front wheel turned all the way to the left.
Strange huh?

The Valkyrie tire just naturally stays there.
I've had several other bikes scare me when the front tire turned to the left as soon as the rider got up. I always think their bike is falling.
If you do turn your wheel full left after you're on the kickstand, notice how much force you have to put into it.
