Not looking for technical information here on the general board. Just wondering if any of you have this kit on your Valk. Got into a chat about nitrous the other day with a friend who drag races cars and he suggested that I might be interested in this kit. I think it would be a lot of fun just to have it on the bike... as a conversation piece if nothing else. And, of course, it would be really sweet in just the right circumstance!

If you're into racing HDs,....you won't need it. I "street raced" a HD three times before we parted ways. It was no contest.
Ran into that HD rider a later, and he accussed me of having NITROUS. He said that his bike had a Stage III kit on his bike, and that even sport bike riders wouldn't race him. He got down on his knees looking for a bottle because I "cheated" by beating him three times (stoplights) in a row.
No need for NITROUS. Cause you can't fix STUPID.

That's how I rate all my bikes, is will it beat a Harley?
Not a very high standard I am aspiring too.
But then again Stupid is forever.

I got a buddy with a V rod who wants to race. I told him I know I can't beat that bike but I'd like to see how much faster it is. I'm sure I could take him if we raced to Colorado though!

Look at the DYNO thread here by RJ # 1 -2 Fred Neal with NOS and W/O, Very impressive! I ran NOS for years in my Monte SS set up with timing Retard MSD ignition, The only problem was i would go through a bottle a week and this was just a grudge car weekend warrior LOL!..Dog has posted a kit that i would use my self, "Wet" system 2 solenoids fuel and NOS, would not use Sneaky pete, NOS when button hit was like getting rear ended by a trash truck..342 Posi i could do NOS burnouts for 2 blocks and ran low 12's high 11's all day, used to go Corvette hunting LOL!!

I get a kick out of how many Valk riders aspire to beat a H-D. With about 67 HP, if you could not beat it, you'd be riding a slug.  Funny thing is that most of the HD riders that I know (myself included) don't care if their HD is fast or not. If you want to brag about beating someone, race a Hayabusa. It will make you humble, and really makes about as much sense as it does for a Valk beating a HD. Neither one is a fair contest! About two weeks ago, I was on my Valk IS, and a guy on a Busa, with a lady on behind him, was still pulling away from me when my speedo read 125+. I think I only saw his tailight becasue he wanted me to. Man, that thing was fast?

I tool around town more tahn anything. the way this bike lopes just makes everyone turn their heads. thats enuff for me. but for an 800+ lb cruiser to go 0-100 in 4 seconds, thats moving. and like I said, r-1's, cbr1000rr, gsxr100r's, no problems. a busa or a zx-14(even a built zx-12) i cant touch. but I can hang with them in the beginning. then I run out of clean air and they just start getting into it. if you know what I mean... all in fun. guys hear dont mess with me because Im quick on the throttle. but, Mostly just tool around and profile the phat thing. lol

Pete I agree completely, I ride the Valkyrie because I like the Valkyrie for many reason....none of which involve racing. Your point about the Hayabusa is right on point. I have had the pleasure of riding my neighbors Ducati and Aprilia on several occasions, what I learned was that if I was interested in racing I would look not be looking at HD or Honda....period. For the record, that Aprilia is about the most uncomfortable bike I have ever ridden!

I was riding my I/S with a friend who was on his ZX-14. He said "do you want to see something impressive?" "Sure" I said. He said "take off as fast as you can. I'll count to three then try to catch you." I took off and got on it pretty good (but not as good as some of you guys could 'cause I was still somewhat new to the bike). I am estimating that I was doing somewhere in the 80MPH range when he blew by me. It was the same feeling that you have when you are parked along the shoulder of an interstate and a tractor-trailer blows by you.  It literally felt like I was at a complete stop. After we had stopped, he said "you sure did get going a lot faster than I thought you would on that thing." None of this was competitive. It was just two guys having fun and mutually admiring two completely different bikes. But dang, those ZX-14's can haul some serious butt.

Mine is 1740cc. been resleeved. carillo H- beam rods, roller bearings, welded and balanced crank, custom made cams, dbl valve springs and much bigger valves. plus the 3lv eaton supercharger. boight the magna stuff, it was ok, but 6 lbs of boost wasnt getting it. bought a 3lv to replace the 2lp blower. 12 lb pulley. had an 18 on there but with NOS, it was too much so, I took it off pu tthe 12 lb back on in prep for reinsertion of the NOS. I havent run the 40 hp nozzle yet. just the 30 and it gives me about 80 extra ponies.im scared the 40 will do more and pop a head off. I also have solid copper racing head gaskets and I am running a 50mm kiehn round slide carb with 220 main and a 40 slow jet. borillo racing clutch, backcut gears and a whole shelf full of driveshaft parts and a few diffs.lol broke driveshafts 5 times so far. tore up 2 diffs. this last is cryo treated titanium so, I got my fingers crossed. I run a 4 degree wheel. 6 degree only made it run like crap at low rpms. stock cdi with dyna coils. iridium plugs, 104+ fuel...cant wait for january!! fitting her with my mallory programmable cdi. makes the dyna3000 seem like a toy...

Dogg - it would probably be easier if you started to mention what (if anything) left on your bike is stock.  I can't imagine what that bike feels like to ride. You truly have a one-of-kind two-wheeled roller coaster there. Where can I go to see more pics of your bike?

Decent performance, reliability, comfort, good looks, to a point rarity, etc. Yup, there are faster rides, but all around, hands down the Valk is fantastic!
