Use Google.

Type in Valkyrie tank bib or tank bra.

Look through the results.

Looks like a ton of them at 1st glance.

Hey Relax I have tank bibs made by a local manufacturer in my home town on my 3 Valks. He makes for all models Valks and different styles as well. Check out his site at http://saddlebagsbytalisman.com/index.php?osCsid=e2748953def346e8abb5614f1111807c
 It's my Tourer he uses in his page.

BigDog99, They are velocity stacks, you can still find them on e-bay.  I believe they are or were made by Aeromach. I bought mine from Direct Line Parts, searched there for information for you and they are no longer listed. I haven't looked for them in quite some time, maybe they have gone out of production like many other Valkyrie accessories Sad I'm sure someone here will know if they are still available elsware and respond.

I would think Pinwall would be as good of a start as any for finding the velocity stacks?

They fit all the Valks but, iird, you have to do some trimming of the pods on the I/S.

People are more passionately opposed to wearing fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than bikers.

You could go the poorman route and get some stick ons. $8 at Autozone. They are chrome breather filters. Just cut the rubber hose off, stick some double sided tape on the back, stick to carb tops, viola! Instant coolness! You get alot of Q's from other bikers about them. Keep check on them every spring. They get loose. I can't tell you how many bikini chics have knocked one off!
