I got a 97 Valk last month and it is/was in rough shape but the basics were there and seemed that the things I would have changed were the parts in "less than good" shape.
This bike came from Riverside FLA. and was owned by a fellow named Calvin. It seems that when he passed away, he left no will and no heirs.
Big Mike helped me get the bike, but it had no title. I was able to get a clear title based on the above story of Calvin. The MI SoS was able to procure more information on the bike. Of course that info could not be shared with me.
So I am asking if anyone has any more info, such as approximate mileage and other pertintent information.
The motor turns over freely, but there was water in the sparkplug recesses. I was informed that some VRCC members were instrumental in the rescue from Calvins property.
My life isn't going to change if I don't have the info, but it seems like it could turn into a good story. Call it history or provenence,...whatever. But I know the story or owners of the other three Valks I have bought, this might be the best tale yet.
This is what it looked like when got the bike from Big Mike (pic posted before)
