Wow.....  I'm happy (I think) to see that a 300,000 miles Valkyrie still holds it value.....   Shocked Shocked

I'm thinking there is/are 1 or 2 more zeros in the miles shown than there should be.
Have heard though, that there is one out there with those kind of miles.

My guess is that's 30,001.8 miles, mechanical odometer, and all.  She's pretty, pricey, too!

Probably a typo, but he has the 300,018 in 2 different places in the ad. Unless the computer just generated the 2nd from his first entry/typo..............................

I only live about 15 miles from that shop. I thought maybe I'd cruise over there tomorrow and see if the mileage is accurate. I have never seen a bike with that many miles (I know it happens). And the pictures make it still look pretty good.

as far as holding value... there isn't any bids on it.. so I would say He isn't going to sell it for that,

every cycle odometer i've seen only goes to 99K miles then back to zero, so he could say he's got half a million miles if he wanted to!  i'm not the brightest bulb on the christmass tree, but i always thought that people liked buying vehicles with low miles!

Alph, isn't that your Interstate in the picture to the left?

You're right about the Tourer odometer.  It only goes to five nines.

He won't get many bidders until he corrects that mileage.  Anybody know if the IS speedo goes to six figures, I havn't got that far with mine yet.  Hoser  Wink
