of the Valkyrie. Removed rear seat and back rest. Installed solo rack and made my rear piece and wrapped it in leather. Added drivers back rest, tinted windshield, and went for a ride around the block. 200 miles around the block, and i like the way its set up now. It only takes about 20 mins to switch it so i can ride double. So now when i ride by my self the little woman knows i am riding by my self. Makes her very happy, and if she happy everybody is happy.   |

Does your little lady keep the rear seat when you're not running it? My wife is in control of who gets on my rear seat, but she's not went as far as locking it up while I'm out.  Good looking conversion.  |

I have always liked the look of your bike, so i hope you don't mind if i copy from it. I have hard bags, just waiting to get them back from the painter, its only been 5 or 6 weeks. lol. |

Both of those bikes look great, solo with batwings and saddlebags is classic.

I am certain it will not be a complete copy.... mine is always dirty and has something melted on the pipes!  Glad you like it. |

This isn't a current picture; will post one as soon as the bike is back together. Lots of things have been made mo' blackerer...taillight housing, turn signal mounts and trim rings...smoked lenses everywhere and a conversion to all-LED bulbs. Am getting ready to install the tank and CD changer control head...just got the pieces for that project in the mail tonight.  |

ghostrider and bagger John: Two beautiful motorcycles. We very much go for the solo look, as our little mate has no interest whatsoever in riding with us. One day, funds allowing, we shall bag our '99 Standard.  We trudge on. |
