I literally did not recognize you, or it, when you pulled into the BK parking lot. Very nice ride...albeit a tad on the loud side.  |

I'd like to know what has to be done to mount that swingarm in our Valk. Since it's a single side arm type I'm assuming the Valk frame would have to be beefed up a bit to handle the different torsion stresses. Beautiful ride Jack, can't hide money. |

Thank you guys for all the compliments, it is a fun bike to ride and it is definitely LOUD, right Jeff  Jeff Larue and I were both working on getting our "new to us bikes" Pizza Party show worthy John the frame has a cross member that was welded on, it replaced the original one and the shock attaches to it. Jerry Thanks for the pic, here is one more  |

Jack and Larue,
They are looking for pictures to be used in the Valk calendar. I think it was Willow that posted it. I would like to see both bikes entered. You guys should go for it, maybe at the B-52 at Orlando's airport (MCO).

Will try to go for it if time and me being able to take a decent picture works out. Beautiful machine Jack can't wait to hear it.

I guess that from now on, when I ride the beast, I will have to ride sweep Don I think I will be taking "the loudest bike of the group " honors from now on |

update: here is Jacks New Hot Rod Valk That Is Definitely One Nicely Modified Valkyrie You Have There Jack ! The Thing About Those Loud Pipes Is; The Loudness Makes You Want To Stay In The Throttle , Therefore Making More Noise ! That Is Why I Took Those TBR Pipes Off Of The Bumble-Bee. After A While You Start To Lose Your Hearing, Especially If You Travel Any Distance. |

Wow! That's a Valk with lots of work and fantastic results. Congrats. Another reason I am sorry to have missed the party.  Not crazy about "loud" though.   All that "Loud bikes saves lives" crap has been proven to be false. It just pisses people off to the point where they don't like bikers and give them even less of a break. Ask any "non" biker what they dislike the most about MC, and it will be noise and weaving in and out through traffic. Hey, JMO,YMV. |

P.S. - I'm not so sure Jack is crazy about the loudness either. Makes him easy to follow though, even several hundred feet back I could tell when he was on the gas or off the gas. |

Thank you for your support It sure is different and fun to ride, I am keeping my Interstate for long hauls and when I want a quiet ride One thing I have to say is that this bike gets lots of attention where ever I go, even while riding down the road, people giving me the thumbs up or kids waiving. You also have a couple of nice looking rides, maybe one of this days I'll be able to see your Boss Hoss as well |
