this supercharged valkyrie? it was listed locally on craigslist for about a month and now on ebay for about a month. usually they sell right away. what put me off right off the bat was the claimed 220rwhp. imputs needed, I live about 60 miles away. thanks http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-Valkyrie-/231739781809?forcerrptr=true&hash=item35f4c472b1:g:650AAOSwI-BWHs2~&item=231739781809Here is my 2003 Honda Valkyrie F6 Dragon. Bike runs and rides great needing nothing but a new owner. Bike has a supercharger with fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator. Bike was Dyno tuned and is putting out 220rwhp. Bike has newer battery, tires have a little over 1K on them. Bike has no dents or rust and has been mechanic maintained. Bike has never been laid down and has been garage kept all of its life.

I call 220 HP lots of BS. Also he says location is United States. If you're interested, contact him and start a dialog. Get the dyno sheet and go see it in person. (If he'll tell you where he is)

Did you call the number?
Do you honestly think that a bike like this would be listed for a Buy It Now of only $5,500.
Honestly?
Really?
If you do then strike whist the iron is hot and let us know what the bike is like once you are the proud owner.

Why wouldn't you!!?? The price is certainly right. You're essentially getting a free Valkyrie or a free blower - take your pick. I enjoy the heck out of mine. My most recent highway trip netted me 36 mpg. It's a bit cold blooded until the intake plenum gets warm. I have the later generation setup so I don't have the fuel pump or J-tube so I can't speak with total authority about the nature of the build that you're looking at though. It can be upgraded without too much money. You're probably going to net 140 hp at the rear wheel but that's a whole lot more than stock; And all that with just one carburetor! To remind you why you want this . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy1lsQUh0dA
