Hello all, recently purchased a 1999 Valkyrie Interstate. Love it. Its black with blue pinstripes. Does anyone know if the pinstripes are after-market or from the factory? I have not seen a picture of anything similar. thanks! See pics below.

Rich, no Valk came with pinstriping.

Now the two-tone models may have a thin contrast stripe between the two colors, but that's not pinstriping.

My black Interstate (solo, with chopped off trunk) also came with white double line pinstriping, but it was done by the seller, and it was tape, not hand painting.  It was done very well and I always liked the look, but at 24 years old, some of it has rubbed off here and there. 

Not the clearest picture, but you get the idea.

Thank you. 

It has about 75,000 more miles on it than in the picture.  So more wear, tear, nicks and rubs.

It leaves Sat AM for a week long trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway and NC mountains.

Yee haw.   Smiley
