Another update on the bike with some pictures. So far things done. Fork seals, carbs rebuilt installed and syn. De smog. anti freeze changed and new sensor installed for fan on lower left side of radiator. Rear end service. Rebuilt the slave cylinder today and noticed the slide pin seal on engine is bad. Parts on order for that. Thought rebuilding the slave would take care of the clutch issue, but seems that the master cylinder is bleeding down slow. Got parts on order for that also. Windshield mounting brackets on order. Things left to do. Install windshield and brackets, rebuild clutch master cylinder, oil seal for push pin on clutch. Also installed new shock bushings and a seal for the shifter rod. Installed shifter buddy also. Will up date again in a couple weeks. Also added a mustang seat with a Utopia backrest. Plans on setting it up solo.

Might not be the correct part name but it is the seal where the push pin from the slave cylinder goes into the clutch cover. A lot of people grease the pin but mine is deformed and needs changing. Part number is Honda - Oil Seal (8X25x8) (91204-MB0-013) it is in the parts diagram for the clutch cover.

Looking good, love the color. All that work is worth it in my book. A Valkyrie will probably be the last bike I sell. Keep the updates coming.  :cooldude:
