 This is one of a dozen or so brought from a guy in East Europe. I got it from Dusty in Lafayette before he sold his Valk.

Hi Dave Over the years I have collected many Valkyrie related items.I have found with many items that there is an American version but also a Canadian one as well which just doubles up on the amount of stuff I need to have.I have collected most of the magazines from that era as well as most of the Honda stuff like neon lights,banners,posters,coffee mugs and other swag. I even got the original coat that Honda gave the larger Valk dealers back then. But the rarest thing so far is the Japanese copy of their sales brochure. Have only ever seen one for sale and did I pay for it. I wanted to see if they listed a "Reverse" in their papers but need to have it translated first.

A Faria voltmeter with a homemade bracket  I'm sure this rear seat is unique as I made it myself (front is a Diamond, same as Hartco)  I think the rear brake reservoir cover was made by Cobra. I've not seen many of these (and I'm not even sure I like it, just too lazy to change back to the OEM).  Finally, not sure how unique this is, but custom shift peg.

Hey Dale Knowing that you are the true "Canuck",you should have picked up the Canadian version of that neon.Tons of American ones around but very few of those ultra "Fast" Canadians  Happy Trails Adrian(Chrome)V

Hi Dale.I have gotten two of those "Canadian" signs from dealers in Ontario and my "American" from Michigan. Over the years I have only ever seen those Canadian signs sold in Canada but never in the States.Maybe something Honda Canada did back then.The Canuck signs are about two inches shorter.but have a different mounting system Adrian

Got the cardboard back in '97 from my dealer. It made Queenbee's classroom very popular.  The sign placement in the kitchen is up for debate. Seems Queenbee wants to re-decorate. Hmmmmmmm

You won't find one of these anywhere either. A friend of mine made it by hand for me. It's modeled after a picture of my Valkyrie.
