Welcome to the best motorcycle there is. You'll find a fairly biased group of Valkyrie fans on this site.
Where are you located? With the cold snap today, 30 Degree weather could be almost anywhere!

WELCOME TO THE CLUBIt's a GREAT place with an even GREATER group of people! I am a little concerned about part of you post. It sounds like you could be a Valkoholic or at least in danger of becomming one, Please refer to the following link: http://www.f6rider.com/va/valyrieAnomanous251445644189415644498491981.htmSo that you may better understand this disease and learn where you can get much needed counseling.

Holy crap!!!! I have 14 out of the 15 symptoms!!!! Oh my God...I think its terminal! I think #16, 17 and 18 should be: 16 - If you have at least as many (or more) pics of your Valk than of your SO, then you are a Valkaholic. 17 - If you've gone through a divorce/split and were more concerned about losing the Valk than you were about losing your SO, house and car combine...then you (I) are a Valkaholic. 18 - If you've talked to your Valk and she's talked back then you are a Valkaholic...or taking the wrong meds!

I have had mine for 5 years. Longest bike i have had. Each year i look at the new ones and there is nothing i would buy. So if i were you i would figure on passing it down to you kids or be buried with it. You will have it that long.

Ull love it for a long time. Lots of us have since the start. Shes a little long in the tooth, but is still up thee with the top dogs. Now plan on Inzane and meet a bunch of Houligans that share your new affection, and be prepaired to check out some truely magnificent machines. Ull get some ideas of some of the custom touches you can use to make it your one of a kind machine.
