Been working on my 93 GL 1500 and riding the Valk, but the Fat Girl needed a new rear tire so time to switch. Pushed the 93 up in the garage and brought in the 99 Valk. While putting on the 205/65 Dark Side and servicing the rear end, decided to tackle a few other things. So changed my 11.5 Progressives to the 13" (will decide if they stay after a few rides), then new rear pads. Ah, what the heck? Might as well rebuild the rear caliper, clutch master and slave cylinder, and brake master cylinder while I am at it. So tomorrow, bleed it out and see how well I did. It has been fun, and I look forward to getting to work on the other Valks I have waiting for attention. Will also be listing available parts I have soon so keep an eye on that. Enough stuff to build a couple bikes!

I always enjoyed working on Valks, I wish I still could. All I can do now is give advice.  :cooldude:
