Would like some feed back on the day long seat and air shocks if anyone has had or knows about them. Looks like the Valk IS will stay around. I do not want to dealer trade it for a wing, so I'll just improve my ride for the wife's comfort, she suggested that. I should not leave all my notes sitting by the computer. Thanks

Haven't tried a day long on a Valk yet, but have had one on an ST1100 and it was outstanding.  Suggest you put this question on the national board as I know there are non-Texans who have day long saddles.  Just a thought.

Paul , that good news, you keeping the Valk. It gets me of the hook. Didn't you tell me you wanted to take a Advanced Rider Course? I am trying to put one together.

I have the air shocks 416's and I wish I had bought the 440's instead. I ride two up a lot and I'm about 255 and the wife is alot lighter than me and we bottom out some of the time. Did you think I was dumb enough to say her weight. Grin

TJ, sorry I missed you today hauling dirt for the garden. I emailed you my cell #. I  had several more look at the bike but no sale. I started looking at st1300 and could trade for one. The wife said just keep your bike and add on what will make it a LD bike for us. That was a big US. not a you, an US. So I am just picking some brains on what is good and what is bad.
