Title: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: Pappy! on April 23, 2015, 06:48:34 PM Now that we have Lesa's ride exactly the way she wants it.........
We are going to sell it and get another Valkyrie in the color combination she wants even more!! Hey, when you have a gal that loves to ride by your side, could you say no to that? Most of you know the bike and know it has been maintained to the max, runs like a Bat out of Hell, sounds like a flat-six Porsche on steroids, and idles like a watch. It is the fastest accelerating Valk I have been on to date. If you know someone who would like it let us know. We will have the other one for her ride up to NC one way or another! Someone is going to end up with one Hell of a deal. Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: sixlow on April 24, 2015, 03:25:09 AM What color combo does she seek ?

Mike - Thanks for thinking of us but we have already located the bike in mind and have made arrangements for it. Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: Skinhead on April 24, 2015, 06:01:01 AM PicsAndPrice?

(http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m322/happypappy56/Motorcycles/Lesas%20Valkyrie/photo%201_zpshqnkbhub.jpg) (http://s332.photobucket.com/user/happypappy56/media/Motorcycles/Lesas%20Valkyrie/photo%201_zpshqnkbhub.jpg.html) These are the current configuration. When sold, bike will come with the stock OEM seats and Sissy bar. IS shocks will also go back on the bike. Lesa needed 11.5" shocks to flat foot it and we will keep these. The highway pegs are the only ones that will fit Lesa leg length so they will stay with us and other ones will go on in place of them. The bike currently has 116K on it and has been properly maintained. Pretty much anyone in the Florida group can or will vouch for the bike. The previous owner was Tropic Traveler. He and his wife went to a pair of F6Bs and sold both of their Valks. Maybe Eddie will see this and chime in here? I have completely rebuilt the carbs including the fuel rails. Not just a cleaning. Every single seal and o-ring plus enricher hoses and new fuel lines were installed in all six carbs. There are two tiny dents in the left side of the tank and one painted over scratch. Not a big detractor. TT put a couple of bullet hole stickers over the dents and we kinda' liked them and never removed them! More than willing to help out with a fly n ride. If you need more photos, which I plan on taking, let me know. My phone is 352/three six zero/8878 and my email is clynn68@comcast.net. If I put the bike in Craigslist I will be asking $4200 for it. The price will be better for Valk folks. A good reasonable offer will buy it as time is a factor here. Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: Tropic traveler on April 24, 2015, 04:27:48 PM All three rotors new & bearings new at 100,000 miles, glass pack exhaust, double row bearing mod done at 100K, petcock new at 100K, car horns added under swing arm relayed properly. Upper & lower hoses, antifreeze changed at 100K, new u-joint at 100K, pinion cup new at 85K, new carb boots, K&N filter with pre foam, I/S springs in the carbs, de-smog done a long time ago. Rotella T-6 synthetic 5w40 oil & OEM Honda filters religiously changed at 4K while I owned it. ;)
Bike has always been garage stored & meticulously maintained, whatever it needed it got. it is also the fastest Valkyrie I have ever ridden & I have ridden quite a few! Haven't been on a blown Valk yet but.... Do not be scared of the 116,000 miles on this Valkyrie, I can vouch for it's condition! :cooldude: :cooldude: Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie?

Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: Bronxboy on April 25, 2015, 11:43:35 AM Hey Pappy, I am trying to get my friend to grab it. He has been on the fence for awhile about getting a bike, and I have been on him to get a Valk. I will let u know what he decides, heck it is tempting for me to grab another Valk that has been in the family :cooldude:
Title: Re: Know anyone that wants to upgrade to a Valkyrie? Post by: Pappy! on April 25, 2015, 06:40:05 PM Thank you, Sir! Let me know. Will be an excellent bike for somebody!
Would love to be able to see the bike being enjoyed by another member of our little fold. |
