Im rebuilding my totaled valkyrie and was wanting to verify that parts I buy will work. My bike is a 2000 standard
Im getting a timing belt right rear cover and throttle cables with starter switch from a 97. A 98 frame and the triple tree and forks from a 99. Will any or all be compatible? Thank ya'll for the help.

If in doubt, the easiest way would be to look over a parts fiche and compare.
From all my reading, there is very little that will not transfer to another bike, if not everything will. It's only when buying a part to fix something that was moved over, you might need to know where it came from.
97 std/tourers used a different bearing on the front rim.
IS used a different wire harness, throttle cables, and rear rims (which transferred to all bikes in 00'?).
I'm trying to think of more, before posting, and can't think of anything right now.

Off on a slight tangent... What's the I/S wheel difference? I thought it was just a rotor difference. Please tell me that's right. I just had a std wheel powder coated to mount in my I/S. Bolted on the I/S rotor with no issue, but haven't mounted on bike yet.

Look for a '2 J' on the left side of the wheel inside where the rotor mounts. This would indicate that the wheel is an Interstate wheel or a 2000-2003 Std/Tourer wheel. The early wheels have a '1 J' and would be for a 1997 to 1999 Std/Tourer. Early wheels have to use the early rotor, later wheels must use the later rotor. If your wheel has a '2 J' and you used the rotor off of your I/S you will be good. If your wheel has a '1 J' you will need to get the early rotor. The picture also shows the proper rotor/rotor screws for a 2J wheel.  |

So... I have a 1J wheel. The 2J wheel that was on the bike was pitted pretty
badly and i was afraid it wouldn't look very good even after powder coat. I bought the 1J wheel off eBay and it came with a rotor, but my rotor looked beefier and in better condition, so I bolted it on. So this won't work? What is the actual difference in the wheel? Is there an offset difference? Even if I use the old style rotor, is there a spacer or caliper bracket difference that I need to be aware of??

People shim old rotors onto new wheels... "unshimming" a new rotor onto an old wheel, idaknow...  It is less than optimal... stuff about the caliper won't line up right when you go to putting the wheel on... If you have a wheel with a matching rotor, it will work on all Valkyries... -Mike |

I guess I can use the rotor off the old wheel then. I still don't know the difference between wheels.

Just use the older style rotor there is no other option |

I don't think it was a tangent, but your ? was answered while I was working  I was more interested in trying to list items that where "different", and with some thought, could be used. Like the rear wheel. |

Thank ya'll for the answers. My valkyrie is once again back from the dead. Couldn't have done it without the knowledge on this site, and some very nice members.
