Does anyone have the actual numbers on the size of the Interstate.
I find 100.4 listed as an overall length and 771 listed a dry weight.
I can't find anything on width or height.  
I am looking for numbers on  a factory bike, not considering any mods.
Thanks
Chris

Seat height is listed here. Not sure that is what you are looking for, but here it is anyway.  http://www.motorbikes.be/en/Honda_Valkyrie_Interstate_2000.aspx

See if this helps? Everything else I say on the Internet showed a fuel capacity of 5.3 gallons. I know that is wrong!  crazy2

Thanks for the replies gentlemen.
I found both of those sources while doing research before I
posed the question.   I am trying to find the overall measurements
for shipping purposes. 
If anyone has a tape and a few minutes, I'd consider the results you
provide as scripture.....seeing as how this is apparently classified material.
I need the width, front fairing tip to tip  ( so the grip ends go out past the fairing profile?)
Width at the saddle bags, if your has protective rails that would be even better.
( the specimen I am acquiring does have them)
Overall length, not wheel base and, finally, height..... the shield on this one is shorter than stock, but the stock measurement or even an over size one can't hurt.
Thanks for the assistance.

The way I read it. That is 5.3 gal. until you hit reserve. However, you are correct the tank holds closer to the 7.3 gal.

These are close, may not be exact. Length 8' 11". Width mirror to mirror, 44". Saddlebag to saddlebag 38". Height at windshield 65" I have a tall windshield, yours may be different. This does not take into account for lean. You may want to add a few inches to the width.

What's with all the tank size and capacities answers? If I read his question correctly, he asking about the length of the bike.
