Hello everyone,

I have received requests to add photos of my custom Valkyrie from about 2 years ago. I finally got around to it. Use the link below to see the album. The bike is for sale, but wanted to share some photos in case it sells and is with a new owner. I remember some of you had question about re-creating the fairing, if anyone else has any questions about the work done feel free to ask.

Thanks,
Matt

Nice!    what bags are those?

watch that horn, fully collapsing the forks, i.e. hard braking and/or with road bumps will let the fender hit it.

Thanks! There the Tsukayu Jumbo Strong bags. A custom shop frenched the lights into the bags.

I never had a problem with the horn, moved it since I thought it look better up in front.

I like the way they 'frenched' in the license plate on the rear fender too.  Smiley

  Your dash board is excellent. 

Good job.  cooldude

cool.  U might be high enough. I had a horns level with the lower part of the crash bar and it would hit slightly.

The sooner it sells the better... the plan is when that spot is free,  I'll fill it with a 2018 goldwing.

i have the same problem.  want a 2018 wing, but have only room for 3 bikes and i already have 4 valks.  problem is i can't bring myself to sell any of them so the wing might have to wait.

It was a tough decision to want to sell the valkyrie. This is my favorite bike I've ever owned. My SO is pissed at me since she likes the looks of the valkyrie better than the new wing and doesn't want me to change bikes. But i drove that 2018 goldwing and really liked it. I'm confident on either bike I'll have a big smile on my face as i rack up miles. And so will she once she gets used to it, especially once she starts using the headed seats. If i had the space,  I'd own both.  But I'm also at 4 bikes, and that's my max.
