I know some owners are moving on to other bikes but I get the feeling some owners are hurting $ wise.

Lottery is $250 million tomorrow. Once I win I'll buy all of them and lease them back for a reasonable yearly rate  cooldude angel

Yup, I really don't want to sell my Valk, but after being out of work for 5 months, the savings is starting to get really low...gotta do something and that is the only thing I have that is paid for and can unload fairly quick...I hope!!!  If not, I'll be traveling on it to my new home wherever that might happen to be...

I had talked to a gentleman who was really interested in the bike, he was from Florida, and was planning on coming to Texas and riding the bike home...I felt like Robert Duval in Days of Thunder when he was talking to the car asking it to take care of Trickle...when he saw the oil and said "This is NOT the answer I was looking for..."  I noticed that I had a fork seal leak, so I spent $250.00 having it done, and then the guy backed out on the purchase....Oh well, it is done whether I sell her or not now...Just didn't really need to spend the $250.00 right now....

The big fat tires on a Valk ride over gravel, no problem.   cooldude Daniel Meyer went all the way into Alaska on his Valk.

The  gravel is 2-3 inches thick  in some places .
Can you ride in sand ?   The Valk will sink  and I will lose  steering and fall

Deep gravel's not that big a deal...

As far as sand..
Until it gets deep enough and loose enough so she can't power through it, yes, she can ride in sand.

And you may not fall...

(rummages around)

Aha! Here's a picture of Wizard's valk...in sand that got too deep!
