Valk Levers ...

[Bagger]

The new Valk is in the garage.  Picked it up late yesterday, so only have a few miles on the beastie.  Haven't ridden a bike without a windscreen in 25 years.  That was interesting.  Not sure I like it or not.  I do have the tall windshield which I may install this weekend.

Anyway ...

I noticed the brake/clutch levers are not adjustable (as they are on the GW and F6B).  Odd IMO.  And, the reach is a bit long for me.  Wondering if the adjustable levers can be installed on the Valk?  Also, Kuryakyn makes some 'shorter reach' levers that look much better than those oem's, too.

Any ideas ??

I to had the same problem, 1800 Goldwing levers are adjustable and will fit the Valkyrie.  One of the levers, I believe the clutch side, needs to have a tang removed.  Easy to do.  Maybe someone will chime in with a link on procedure.  Made a big difference.

Assuming these will work on the new Hondas, here is a link.  However, the cut-off mod was for Valkyrie, it seems to me likely the F6B and Goldwink Valk will not need this mod, as the levers are made to bolt up on a Wing.

I believe three outfits made adj levers for (1800) Wing... Kuryakyn, Add-On, and maybe Show Chrome.  

Also, if you just need wider levers, you can find wider (chrome) levers that are not adjustable to replace OE levers, a bit cheaper than the adjustable ones.

I just looked for the link to a Kuryakyn adjustable levers for Wing, and two sites say no longer available.

The Show Chrome adjustable ones are out there, but the levers are skinny like OE.

I saw that video, too.  And, expect those levers to work on the NEW Valkyrie without alteration.  (?  maybe  ?)

The link in your post above is for the FIRST Valkyrie that I had in 1999.  That bike was based on the 1500 Wing and the adjustable levers were 1st added to the GL1800 Wing in 2001 I believe.

BTW, the F6B and GL1800 have adjustable levers.  The new Valk does not.  ???  Honda saving 8 buck$?  The oem levers on the Valk are pretty cheesey IMO.  Plus, why are they not BLACK?

I want to change them out.  The reach is way to far for my short fingers.
