Washed Phatt Ghurl like I said I would And it got up to 68 degrees F with lotsa sunshine here today. After drying her off I started polishing with Wizards Mist and Shine. Phatt Ghurl IS 20 years of age and comin up on 9 years I've been with Her. Phatt Ghurl is Mostly garage kept but I have been out in the hot sun the rain salt residue after ice and been in a dust storm or 2. After I started polishing I was-pick any superlative here- amazed at how durned GOOD the finish is overall on my Valkyrie. It do have some paint knicks and there have been saddle bag and fairing repairs but the stock paint chrome and aluminum look good as new-specially when she be cleaned up and repolished. If my 20 year old Honda looks this good how good will the new 2019s look in 20 years with the right upkeep? RIDE SAFE.

I'm not sure... the paint on my 2014 Valkyrie doesn't seem near as good as on my 97 Red and White one...

My 1975 original GL1000 RED with ORIGINAL paint still is just fine, yes afew chips and some sun fadding but that is part of what makes it cool I had the valve covers and the front belt covers powder coated RED but the rest is original and still looks great. I hope my 2014 Maroon Valkyrie looks as good in 44 years.
