Well, a couple weeks ago, I received and replaced the de-laminated Hondaline windshield with a 17 one from Clearview (nice). Then, while trying to get a 900km ride in to test it out on the long weekend, my front tire kept going flat, which I discovered was a leaking valvestem. I bought 2- 85 degree chrome stems off e-bay from a company called curvygirl.com. After just over a week, I got them on Friday and today, I installed them using a couple 8 inch c-clamps and 2- 6 inch pieces of plywood to break the bead. As well, I removed and polished the cam end covers and installed a couple of Dennis Kirk mini-cruiser mirrors. Never really understood why Honda made a bike as nice and rounded as the Valkyrie and put rectangular mirrors on it. Anyway, after a pretty busy day working in the bike and later washing and waxing it, I'm one pretty satisfied rider. Hope tomorrow's weather holds out- I'm going riding!
