So, I've been looking for something to read specifically about Valkyries.  I can locate books with a paragraph about Valkyries, but nothing pertaining to only Valkyries. Nothing with stories about trips Valkyries made, or interesting details about the bike.    Does anyone know of anything that was written about the most unique motorcycle Honda ever made? 
Thanks

Don't know of any, however, you might want to post this on the General board.

I might not give the answer that you want me to

Yep, Daniel Meyer is almost the poster child for the Valkyrie.  That said, it is almost impossible to find a picture of him.  But I did find one of his hand:



If you want a distant view, search for (or google) fargle-snorker.



Sorry for the semi-hijack.

motorcyclecruiser.com has many articles from their hard copy magazine.
they are the ones who voted the Valkyrie "cruiser of the decade".
even have about the two brothers Odin bike.
motorcyclist has a good article. Motorcycle consumer news has some very good ones.

Appreciate the suggestions.  I'm fairly new to the website, and have never heard of the two brothers Odin bike?

actually I'm sure he would. However truth be told, I'm not sure how much Josef Boyd had to do with the design itself of the Valkyrie and those people remain unheralded.
