I also will have this in the Classifieds. I'm restoring a GL1200, well....not exactly restoring. Just putting it back on the road but won't be anything like OEM, that's where the forks come in. Both the Valk and GL1200 use the same steering neck bearings & races for the triple trees, and I just happen to have a set of of Valk triple trees in my stash. But I also will need a set of Valk forks and a wheel. I think I have the wheel sourced, but all the forks I've found are either bent or the owner is very proud of them.

Does anybody have a good set of forks they need to move out of the way since you can't hang anymore clothes on it?  Grin Shoot me a PM and a price. School is still out on whether I'm going to make the change, depends on total cost. But it sure would make that old Wing look badass with a big Valk front end on it. cooldude

Is it possible that the VTX 1800 forks will work, just a thought. May expand the potential donor list. uglystupid2

I think you may be right. I'll have to check on it, I know some have VTX trees on their Valks so they could get the chrome covers for them.
