two valkyries anyone?

[calcruiser]

curious if anyone else has 2 set up like this.  i gotta have two.  the tripper and the ripper

the tripper is a stock piped 2000 model that has a big boy ultimate seat, boss usa  buffalo leather bags, passenger seat and sissy bar, and a vintage cyclear windshield.

the ripper is a 97 six into six custom cal cruiser, no bags, no windshield, no passenger seat, custom paint

bought them both this year my first valks and have loved working on them.

both bikes are so different in their set up and way they ride, sound, and feel.  the tripper sounds like a sewing machine and carries six gallons of milk.  the ripper absolutely screams!

Our fearless leader Willow fits that outline pretty well, or at least he did in the past.

Very different on the specifics, but I run something in the same philosophy...

My original Valk, '98 Standard (with add on windshield and saddlebags and so many other farkles it'd take all day to list 'em) and later I got an Interstate, which I sold and got another Interstate, which I finally accepted if I'm gonna go all the way to an Interstate I might as well go all the way and bought a Goldwing.

So now I have an "Around Town" Valk (Still has saddle bags but they're quick remove) and a windshield (Also quick remove) and my mile eater Gold Wing...

Should I ever get another, I would like a supercharged version (of course with my colors).   But that’s unlikely to happen.  Thinking I may have pushed my luck with the last acquisition.

At present, I've got a fully complimented in accessories, but mostly OEM, Interstate, 2 1-up Tourers and a Bobber.

One Tourer is mostly stock w/125+K on her, bought new in 1999.

Other Tourer has OEM pipes and was Ragnared but repaired.  Sounds awesome.

Bobber has straight 6-6 pipes and t-handlebar, no fenders, no engine guards and just about everything not needed to roll, taken off.

She screams, and gives me the giggles every time I ride her.

All are double dark sided.

Problem being, not enough time.

It's a start.

These are two pictures.  I should show more recent ones.





I have three others in the herd but now retired I do need to release two of them.

Here is Highbinder's garage many years ago during a visit.  Two of those are mine and Mama's.  The rest belonged to Highbinder and Tracy.



Multiple rides does result in some conflict of choice.



Mama claims two of the five.





Honestly, since I acquired Daisy Mae the others don't get nearly as much road time.  There is some confusion among others as to whether one can ride distance on a minimal Valk.



I should apologize for bragging but I can't seem to help myself.  The Valk I most ride gets a lot of notice and comments.  I enjoy it as I tend to be an attention whore.

When I finally get mine back in the same shop/place from the painter, I’ll take a picture or three.
John Smith’s recommended changes have slowed that reunion.

Edited:  This assumes this thread is still active.  I do seem to have a menagerie of bikes.  I don’t pretend to think everyone will appreciate what I have, but I find it a unique challenge and experience when I ride each of them.
