Hello fellow riders from my past and new riders I never got to meet.   I am selling an interstate seat and trunk backrest that I have had in the attic for low these many years. 

http://www.valkyrieforum.com/bbs/index.php/topic,69807.0.html

Also selling my helmet, coats, and some NEW GLOVES for cool weather. 
Would love to see it go to a Florida rider.

Here's a link to some other items

Hey Mark and Pat.  Glad to see you found the website.  Hopefully someone will take some of your items off your hands.  I think we are good on those things.  When you see something close to you for one of the lunch rides just show up.  For those of you that don't know Mark and Pat, he and Bruce DDT more or less started this whole Florida BBQ hunting group.  So you can rest assured he is one of the good guys.

Hi Mark & Pat, I Am Taking Good Care Of The Red & Black Valkyrie Since I Purchased It From You, It's Still Worthy Of The Wind. I Hope That You Find A new Owner For Your Leftover Parts And Accessories. Like Thunderbolt Said, If You Want To Show up At One Of Our Lunch Gatherings, You Are Both More Than Welcome. I Hope All Is Well With You Both, Bert.

It served us well.  I didn't run it enough at the end and so it created work for you.  What all did you end up needing to do to get it back in full operations?

I Replaced The Carburetors, Tires,  Brakes, And A Complete Service. I Put A Couple Of Sets Of Bags On It Before Finally Settling With Corbin Beetle Bags. I Also Changed the Seat And Added A Batwing Fairing.
 This Is A Couple Of Picture Of The Bike With A Set Of Leather Bags And A Seat Change.


And A Picture Of All Three Of My Valkyries.

Thanks for the report.  That is a great look particularly for a solo ride.  When I bought it I wasn't thrilled with red and black  but it grew on me and turned out to be my favorite Valk combination.  That bike was a dream ride for sure.  I see the coke cover is still on the oil filter.  I sure miss riding and I miss taking trips on the bike.  I try to remind myself to be grateful for the years we did get to ride rather than be depressed that we can't do it anymore.  Ride often and ride safe!
