I got my 2nd Interstate in yesterday, and while taking some parts off I noticed this tank under the bike. It is behind the kickstand and in front of the rear tire. I have worked "casually" on several valks, but have never seen this! Its on a 1999 green and cream Interstate! Any help is appreciated!  |

Ok, is this something I just leave alone? Does it just last forever? Do I take it off?
Sorry, its just weird to me!

You must return it to the state of Caifornia for its 15 cent redemption, under penalty of law I might add.  |

You have to sell it to Paxton. It's a rare liberal Valkyrie and is only at home among it's kind.

If you plan on de-smogging that canister goes to file 13. Not de-smogging? Leave it on or at least link the hoses. I discovered once all the CA (and fed) stuff is off the Lady, she is really not a valley girl.  |

It's a smuggler's cache for when you leave Colorado.
BTW, there have been a lot of reports of CO licensed cages etc being stopped in other states w/o probable cause other than their plates, lately. I'm taking a road trip next month, not looking forward to the harassment. Reports I've heard, is out-of-staters are coming here, buying pot and heading home. But I guess the cops have to use our plates, as that's their only indicator of a potential smuggler. I'm thinking if it happens, and it may, I'll turn on the video, document the proceedings and show it to a lawyer. Just for the record, I haven't partaken of ganja for decades. Burned out too many brain cells back in the day (during the nam) - figure I need every one I have left.

never heard of it but now I'm gonna look for it. How did you like it? 100 proof. hot. when you first open it you think of rubbing alcohol. Then take a sip, or several. and then you're hooked and cooked. Found a website for it: http://www.juniorsmidnightmoon.com/P.S. didn't mean to go off subject. |

Mark, you beat me to it. It's for your Colorado stash. I'm headed to IA and Ill next week so I may get to test out your smuggler theory.  Tom |
