BigBF, but he won't be back for awhile. I think he is in New York now.

I'm not sure. I think most of his info is handled on Facebook if you have that. He has been traveling the country since Inzane working on members bikes. I will ask him over on one of his threads.

I should be back home probably in Jan 2018.
I got a lot of Valkyrie from all over USA to work on and traveling...
Today is my #52 valkyrie that I’m working on it.
Right now I’m doing overhaul carburetors.
If you can wait for me and it will be well worth it...
meathead know it and he had me work on his Valkyrie.

FYI: one of guy want me to work on his carburetors but I was not in town. He send his somewhere at shop in NW area, they rebuilt it then for some reason he sold it and when I was in Texas to work on John Stiefer Valk and the owner came to me to work on his valk and found out that was the bike he bought it from previous owner in nw Phx and the carburetors was terrible and did a poor job so I do overhaul carb  and get it done right.
If you wonder how do I know? New ownew owner show me the invoice that I work on and other invoice from other shop with carb work...

Thanks for chiming in Bill, Steve contacted me yesterday after seeing that I live in Phoenix. I let him know you were travelling but not sure when you would be back in Scottsdale. Sounds like his problem may be just a petcock issue. BTW, it took me about two weeks to sell my Valk after you overhauled the carbs, hated to sell that machine when it was running so well, but it was hard to ride 3 bikes as much as they should be ridden. Thanks a lot BF! Oh, and Harold still has the Mustang you sold him long ago, small world huh? Harold has worked for me about 10 years and we made a connection to you about 4 months ago. Take care man!

Steve's Cycles in Mesa will work on them. Gilbert and Main, if you're willing to make the trek.
