Hi everyone,
I'm riding a 2014 maroon red Valkyrie and like the combination of chrome with body color.
I'm planning to buy chrome side covers and also wonder that Goldwing front disc cover will fit to my bike.
The dimension of the wheel is an inch bigger than GL1800 but i dont know the size of the brake disc.
So, goldwing disc cover will fit to my bike?
anyone has tried it ?

Ride safe...
Emir.

The forks look different on the outside and the wheel is a
different size. Let us know what you find....

It would look better if you painted the side covers same color as  the maroon red .
The chrome may look funky

Kidd you're weird dude!  LOL Cheesy cooldude   Actually the chrome covers I THINK, anyway, would look better on the red then the blue.  The red already has the chrome gas tank cover and chrome instrument panel...not to mention the chrome on the top of the headlight.  It would follow that theme nein??? uglystupid2

I think Robert needs to get the chrome ones for his bike. coolsmiley

I think the stock ones are BUTT ARSE ugly! Sad

Painting them is a GREAT idea...but costly, more so then the chrome ones especially if you want them to identically match the bike fit/finish.

To the best of my knowledge the covers would NOT work since the Valkyries brake rotors are supposed to be bigger than the Goldwings.

Chrome side covers will fit but I dont think the brake covers will. Disc size may be a problem but the way the fit with the rear of the front fender on the wing I dont think they will do that with our bikes.

 I may eventually get the chrome side covers but I want to live with the black for a bit.  coolsmiley But was also thinking about chroming the rear grab handles.



 But was also thinking about getting these emblem lights. I cant decide if I really like them and without seeing them in person Im not so sure.

Thanks for the answers.
In fact it's a big disappointment for me to know that brake covers won't fit Sad
I like them a lot on GL1800
In Istanbul there is a company focused on modifiyng Godwings and when i find time I will ride to there and learn the mod. opportunuties for Valkyrie.
Maybe they can lead me.

By the way the emblem lights look real good.
