Hey John, if they no fit, I got confidence in ya to make em fit.
Have a good Turkey day.
I'm going to stay home and polish on my Valkyrie Trike.
I'd rather have my shoulders and arms hurt, that have a sore chuck full POT belly.

I was looking at similar ones on ebay. Are levers pretty easy to install? Sorry, that is a real newbie question...  |

Those are Kuryakin wide blade levers. I've had mine for several years with no problems. Good stuff.

I purchased $19 levers for another bike a few years ago. They lasted less than two years before the chrome started to peel. Not the same vendor...but you get what you pay for. Good luck.

I have those (3 season coming) and are like new... One of the best 20$ I have ever spent. |

I put the adjustable levers on my Valk 3 years ago, cause of the long reach for the clutch lever. Still look new and I love them. There's a secret to modifying them (or the brake light stays on until you push the lever forward with a finger).

That's just like the "SECRET" some jerk was not willing to disclose about the key and the locks on the Valkyrie because he didn't want to be responsible for any Valkyrie's that may be stolen due to disclosure of the "SECRET".
It was like: "send me a personal PM to get the information". What a crock!
Who on this earth would want to steal a Valkyrie?
Maybe another Valkyrie owner to get discontinued parts.
Laugh!

Not a BIG secret, I found it on this board, in fact. Just grind off the lip on the bottom of the brake lever around the pivot so it doesn't bind. And there's a tab on one lever that you have to cut off.
