V-8 Valk

« on: June 04, 2010, 02:07:51 PM »

Looks like a pretty good buy-$6500 Interstate with the arm-ripping power of a V-8!

Not much bling, but it looks clean and has a CB. Someone should snatch that up.

They even have a "make offer" option. Great price as is.

Mmmmm... V8 sound... to me the Valk has three sounds...

Below 2500 RPM, it sounds like an old Chevy straight 6 (1970-ish era)...

2500 - 4000 RPM, It sounds like a V8 (where most people compliment it)...

Above 4000 RPM, it sounds like a Subaru Rally car (my personal favorite)...

That 5000 rpm range is the Valks BEST feature!!!!

Of course... I'm running Cobra 6X6, so others may think differently. cooldude

I only hear one sound with a Valk with good pipes. Valkyrie sound.

YMMV

What an awesome deal on that bike,
