I've always liked this bike. Makes one wonder what happens to these bikes when the owners move on to other things. ??? What ever happened to Gear Jammers Bike (Super451E-B098-4AFE70570B37-435-0000001D8C53E5F6_zps14825373.jpg[/img]
GearJammer and his wife retired in Ecuador, hope he took it with him, should be some good riding down there. |

 If you are riding and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast. |

Last I had heard, Bobby was going to sell it to a co-worker, but the deal fell through. Probably still has it in storage near Tomball/Magnolia. Hay  Jimmyt |

Nice to see something besides the stock colors. Also not a fan of green, but anything besides the stock colors is a major improvement to these bikes. Mine is headed to the painter this winter along with some big fender mods among other things.

Looks awesome Geoffery B Oh, that's not MINE, that's one I found online -for sale in Europe - but I liked the color, and used it as a starting point to find the "right paint". Need the final buff and re-badging before I'll be finished - but will post pics when done! |

Who was it that painted a Valkyrie bright orange with racing stripes, a la a Chevy SS? It wasn't a Valk but a chopper sorta thingy I've seen with paint like that. I gotta say, I really liked the bright orange with the white racin' stripe. It was Doug that painted his Valk that way. If I remember correctly he was out of the Carolinas. That was a while back and I don't remember his handle. Doug lives in Mississippi... I see him on Facebook sometimes. I'm pretty sure he still has the GO VOLS ( orange and white ) Interstate. I sent him a message on FB and ask if he still owned it... I'll post back to this thread when I hear back from him. |

She still runs like a raped ape and still puts a smile on my ole face. Thanks for all of the compliments all. That truly was a long work in progress. |

It's beautiful !. I got worried for a minute though. I thought you had a scratch on the tank in the next to the last pic, then I realized it was your reflection Very sharp bike. |

Bighead, couldn't agree more! As I was looking to buy a Valk. I looked at many but the best one, ie price, condition and so on. It was/is black. I really did not want black. I bought it, love it and ride it. I live here in NE Ohio, so my days are numbered. Hoping to be able to swing ($) a paint job over the winter. Already found a set of Interstate Bags for it. Still trying to come up with a color. Leaning towards BRIGHT Orange.  Who was it that painted a Valkyrie bright orange with racing stripes, a la a Chevy SS?  One of my favorite cars in one of my favorite color scheme. |

Ya know, seeing it all together - I have to say, that's one sharp bike! Really like the layout of the accents too.
Now you just need a second pilot so you can have the green and yellow go down the road together!
