Hey guys.  I picked up a 2001 Standard with 10k miles this week and chrome wheels.  Maybe my next ride with the VRCC I won't look so out of place.

And how much are you asking for her, Jim?

"I'll never sell Pumpkin". How many Valks ago was that, Stretch? Always good to see you guys whatever you are riding. ~Jeff

I am still getting used to this new format.  Excuse me if I am in the wrong spot.  The 2001 Standard is Black (Of Course).  The wheels are polished brightly but I think they are not chome.

Stretch~ The really good thang about the new software... You can go to one of your post and click "modify" and change the title of your post to something more accurate - like, "I bought two Valks this week". ~Jeff

Blade,
Welcome to the club. What part of town do you live in? Wish you would have posted that you needed all that work done, we coud have had a wrench party and taken care of all of that in about 4 hours and had time to make a ride and a meal. Just post and let us know what you want to do and there are enough people usually willing to lend a hand and get it done. My hangar is always open for anyone to use and I am available to help. I just put a car tire on someone's Valk last week.

Again, welcome to the club!!
