Delivered my '97 to Lesa & Casey today. I know they are excited to be a two Valk family! Can't let the occasion go by without a pictorial tribute to the Red 'n White.  Hastings, Florida  Bahia Honda, the Keys  Key West.  Sanford, Florida  Marineland.  Pizza delivery.  The St. Johns River Palatka  By the pool at home.  Chinsegut Hill near Brooksville.  Lake Lindsey, Florida  Fanning Springs, Florida  Horseshoe Beach, FL   Yankeetown on the Gulf in the morning......  Ormond Beach on the Atlantic later that day. Coast to coast ride on a 101° day in June. Take that, hot weather wussies!!!  JP Cycles Daytona  Caught in the rain in Astor, FL.  At a B&B in St. Augustine  Panama City Beach  Tybee Island, GA  Main St. Daytona  The Ford parts depot, Davenport, FL  Destin, FL It's been around but has many, many more adventures left in it. I hope Lesa enjoys it as much as I did!

Very nice Eddie, well done I remember when that was your only Valk, then added Kim's Valk, then added the silver & black Valk It was a fun Valkyrie journey. Now on to your next Honda F-6 Journey. All your pics are great and I'm sure bring back fond memories, I'm particularly fond of that first pic the Florida Museum.

Eddie, as soon as I get the right set of handlebars on it, you will see it around a lot. My wrists just can't handle a set of bars that wide, and with that much sweep-back. I love the bike, but the bars cause me too much pain. I am in the process of making it "my own."

I have to say I love my Sedona Red  but the Red / White sure is a Great looking combo.  It must have been hard to give up!  but sounds like she still has a life in the neighborhood.
