I've seen something kinda similar on Harleys before, but I've never seen such a setup on a Valkyrie.  The seller says it can be fully operated by a paraplegic.  Thumb button shift.

Seth, after I bought my 98 standard in Colorado i got a heel to toe shifter from a valk rider who was with the Colorado High Country Cruisers he had installed an electric shifter on his valkyrie. It worked very well for him. That was a very long time ago!  Raymond

:cooldude:  Necessity is the mother of invention!  I've learned that Valkyrie riders are pretty darned industrious when it comes to customizing their bikes to "fit".

     Some years back there was some sort of H/D ride and riders that came thru and stopped fer a bit in West Plains Mo. Lady on an H/D trike was missing her left leg just above the knee. She had I believe an air shifter on her H/D. And she informed at that time she was tryin to wad up 12-14000 every year!  :cooldude: RIDE SAFE.

I rode with a Valkyrie rider a few years ago that had a prosthetic left leg from an accident. He had an electric shifter setup that worked very well. I don't remember the manufacturer though.
