Saw this poll on FB, I believe the results will be similar but, wanted to ask. Pick two.

Facebook is probably where t belongs (note my disrespect for that forum).
Choose two. How many can one own? Maybe one; maybe five. It depends.
A Supervalk is an Interstate which can run with or without its trunk. Thus having both on the list is misleading. A SuperValk is an Interstate.
I like them all. I won't vote.

Some bikes don’t lend themselves to much personalization. The Valkyrie however, can be customized to how you like it and to me a standard is more of a blank canvas begging to be adorned with what you like.

Since I sold my 01 Valk and now have the 14 Valk and prefer my 14 of those in similar categories I choose my standard. I ride what I choose, or what I prefer and would not want more than one.

You trying to burnish your PIA status before Inzane ?  (I feel uncomfortable when I agree with Willow, but I didn’t vote either)

Funny... I like them all and voted that way  Seems harmless. At least it's Valk related.

That would be nice. I really hate FB. However, the reach to other Valkyrie riders far surpasses this forum. Our reach here would be much greater (and was at one time) if FB didn't exist.

I voted for Tourer, but, It has to be the 1997 red and white Tourer.
Anything less, is just too slow for me.
Thank You,
John
PS: It also has to have been Johnny-'ized'... by me.
Thank You,

I agree! Red and White Tourer FTW! Of course, it has to be a tourer without a windshield for me!

Here's a 97 for you.  Jess, That is so messed up  I am currently making a note to myself... That when you come down to NC for a week of cabin fever... And I bring the van load of retired 97's from the retirement home out to the cabin to do the 'pole dance' they did in their youth... And, I get up at 5:30 the next morning to start the coffee... And, I see your wide open eyes with a smile on your face... I too, will understand the 'magic', of a '97. Thank you...for that image. John

Believe it or not there is precedence for this at a VRCC event at an undisclosed location some years ago. Maybe for late night at INZANE sometime??? Jeff, I remember that!!! I was not a participant, though... just a surprised observer... As y'all probably guessed, I am a bit biased regarding my own choice for best suited Valk variation to my personal taste... Yep, the Tourer... I already owned a Wing at the time of purchase, and I didn't see enough difference between that and the Interstate to justify having both... I did want saddlebags and a windshield, however, so the Standard wouldn't work because that would involve a wait, and that's just not conducive to impulse buying!... Besides, the Tourer just looked so doggone sharp, proper, and good to me... Our girl and I bonded even before the handshake concluding the deal was made... and the rest is history... DDT
