Title: And he rode it like he stole it !! Post by: sixlow on October 31, 2020, 01:51:59 PM Another Valkyrie is reborn and road worthy, the project bike is done and after much work and 7 plus years of resting she is ripping down the road as a Phat Gurl should. This is by far my greatest Valkyrie accomplishment to date, I'm grinning as much as Walt is who was very appreciative of my time and effort. We had a few hiccups along the way but was able to work through them or just buy the parts that were missing. We went for a ride together and stopped at our spot that fate had us meet some 4 or 5 months ago. :cooldude:
Oh and I picked up another Valkyrie today, I always wanted a Bumblebee 8) (https://i.postimg.cc/YC16bSB1/Screenshot_20201031-141851_Gallery.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/JszHhMnn) (https://i.postimg.cc/GpKknS2t/20201031_100801.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/xkkkK5LV) (https://i.postimg.cc/cCngCDsQ/20201031-100655.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/sG3D04GX) (https://i.postimg.cc/PqS8Rp38/20201031_140718.jpg) (https://postimg.cc/1gNtgtZ9) Title: Re: And he rode it like he stole it !!

Title: Re: And he rode it like he stole it !! Post by: Thunderbolt on November 01, 2020, 03:09:20 AM I did several carb rebuilds in the past for myself and a few more members. It was always good to see the smiles on the faces of the owners when they realized how well it ran afterwards. Good on you Mike, I see he gave it a thumbs up.

I can only imagine how excited the owner now feels. :angel: Bringing in a new member :coolsmiley: Then picking up a nice Bumblebee ;)

Your new Bumblebee needs a car tire. I wonder what size it is? :uglystupid2: Title: Re: And he rode it like he stole it !! Post by: GRCTAMPA on November 01, 2020, 05:13:12 PM Great work, another Valkyrie set to eat up the miles!
Title: Re: And he rode it like he stole it !! Post by: Valkahuna on November 03, 2020, 12:36:04 PM Great job Mike! My Phat Gurl still runs better than ever after I rebuilt all six carbs. Unfortunately Viv has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancerback on July 1, so my priorities have changed. Even the Indian is just sitting. It’s amazing how much something like that changes things.
