When I first came into the Valkyrie world I never would have thought I would own 2 Valks so 4 of them  :o never crossed my mind.

Came across a deal I could not pass up so this is  the latest addition to the Jack Attack stable.

It is a one owner 1997 Green Tourer with 28k original miles.  

Carbs got a complete overhaul and I'm still needing to get all new fluids and rubber so it can be road Worthy, I will get there soon.

Stable is full, no more bikes.

BTW During our last RTE to the Boondocks, some of the guys found out what I had done and man did I get the guilt trip big time. Not going to mention any names  :roll: but one guy said I should go to church more often, another guy got his wife to give me "the look", good thing it all happened on the way out  :2funny:

I'm only human and could not resist  :evil:

Here I speak in bullets because I need to go to bed!
Awesome herd! 
I was wondering how long it would take for you to fess up.
Don't worry I did not bid on it so not me.
I was hoping it would be here at the cottage this Saturday. 
Us Fla peeps have issues :uglystupid2: :2funny:
Hey it is a good addiction.

Oh Grand Exhalted leader of great dealz I need to go to bed later and get up earlier than your Grand poo badness, cuz we are not worthy of your existence.   ;D.   I called on this bike at 7 30 a.m. after being alerted by my friend JimC  who saw it the night before in the classified, but that wasn't soon enough apparently. As you slinked by my front door in the dead of night I know you was checking your rearview mirror for me. I should have known when I didn't get a call back that you were one step ahead of me.  :(   also Jims99 must have been 2nd in line on this great deal. All in all I'm glad you got it Jack. It was fun to rib you about it tho and sorry about "the look".  They all have one we have to endure at times. :P. Best of luck with her my friend she is a beauty.  :cooldude:

"Oh Grand Exhalted leader"!  Dang  :o

Jack, maybe it is a good thing I don't ever see all four of mine next to each other at once!  "Well, how did we get here" "same as it ever was".  :uglystupid2:

Toets jelly.  That boy needs therapy

That looks very much like my first Valkyrie.  I bought it in Ocala at the Honda shop.  The previous owner took it in to get a new rear tire and left it there when they offered him a good deal on a Gold Wing.  Even to the chrome bits.  But I sold mine to a guy from the central U.S.
Congrats on the new addition.  We had 3 at one time so you are the grand poo pah for sure.  ;D

Congratulations, Jack.   It looks really nice but I'm sure it will look better when you are done with it.  My favorite is still the red one, as I LOVE bright red!  If I ever get around to putting fork seals in mine, I will feel more safe riding it long distances again.  Be safe everyone.  Four bikes and still room for your wife to park in the garage?  If so, I'm impressed.  ☺☺☺

Thanks all for the nice words on encouragement  :cooldude: :cooldude:

Jerry, I was not able to post before cause you were getting all the attention with your wheeling and dealing  :P ;)

I got to say, this is an awesome group we have and there are some things that only Valkoholics like us would understand.


Sixlow, about the look, been married long enough, been there done that  ;D I know it is all in good fun but please keep her away from me  :2funny:

Grand Exalted Leader  :o more like lucky dog if you ask me  ;D

Page3man, I have a wonderful wife, no room for cars in the garage and she is ok with it  8)
Also,.the bike will be staying stock, the only thing I would like to get is one of those crooss bars that go between the sissy bar brackets and maybe a radiator covers and led headlight and pingle petcock and ............  Never mind  :tickedoff: ;D

larue

Congrats jack , keep that addiction torch lit  :cooldude:

Hmm....four of the same type of bike? I could understand it if it were horses, they can be all be used at the same time to pull heavier loads(personal experience). Not sure how I could do that with four bikes, must be an incurable disease.  ;)

Nice looking ride Jack.  :cooldude:

Steel cowboy

Nice Jack, but I still see enough room in front for a fifth?? Between you, Jerry, Larue, Mike and a few others you could start your own Valkyrie chapter. LOL

Come on Jack.....you still have the whole back half of the garage to accommodate a few more Valks. :roll:
She's a good looking ride.  :cooldude: I was wondering who picked that one up.

Pappy!

'Twas I who mentioned the need to head to church after darn near stealing that bike! Lordy, what a deal !!
Lesa and I had three Valks at one time like Thunderbolt did so I sort of know the feeling.

Nice line up there Jack!!  :cooldude: Congrats!!  ;)
