Absolutely beautiful weather here today so I was able to run over a tank through the Valkyrie Interstate. I added a full can of Sea Foam to the tank when I took the big girl out of winter storage. Yes, there was plenty in there while she was in storage too. 200 miles later and I had to switch to reserve. When I finally stopped for gas I poured in a bottle of Lucas Injector Cleaner along with over 6 gallons of fresh gas. I got home with about 3/4 of a tank left and let me just say, I don't really think a Valkyrie can run much better than my big girl was running today. Any hesitation coming off idle is gone. It's as smooth as glass and I'm one happy Valkyrie owner.

Also stopped at the local Moto Guzzi dealer and well, there just may be a different Guzzi in the garage soon too. I'm sure the Valk and the Guzzi will get along just fine.

All the best,

Mark

Attaboy cooldude  I'd have loved to do exactly what you did, but I started a bike project last weekend and right after that, my lady ended up in the hospital, so I'm out of commission for a while.  Until I'm back in the saddle, I'll live vicariously through you.  Man, there's just something very, very special about an in-tune Valk and a warm, sunny day.....
