New Owner

[allber]

Hello...Just bought a 1998 Standard (but lots of add-ons).  Don't know why I didn't do this a long time ago.  Now have Sportster for sale!  Does anyone know where to buy a Honda replacement windshield?  Don't need the brackets, just the plexiglas.  I can't see a part number on the existing shield or brackets.







You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me...

Welcome to our 'Big ol' Goofy Family'...

You can order the new shield through a Honda Vendor, or do like many here and get one from Clearview.

Great shield, and gives ya some options as far as size and venting.

Welcome to the crew.  Where in East Texas are you? We've got a number of folks in East Texas, including around Tyler, Palestine and Jefferson that I know of.  Seems like there was someone in Mt Pleasant, too.

For your windshield, you can go to clearview at www.clearviewshields.com
and Cee Bailey at www.ceebaileys.com

Hope that helps

Thanks.  I'm in Hemphill.  Actually about 10 miles east of town on Toledo Bend (near Indian Mounds, if you're familiar with the area).  I'm checking the vendors you mentioned now...

Welcome to the club.  I prefer and use the Tulsa windshield.  Either way, buy the Gold Wing vent; it makes a huge different on a hot Texas day.

Welcome aboard the goofy sandbox.

Don't be afraid to ask questions on the bike.

Many knowledgeable people here as you have already found out....

Don't need the brackets, just the plexiglas. 


If you buy from Clearview, you can use your existing Honda bracket. It's a direct fit. Just choose the size and tint you want and your good to go.     


Check with Hard6 at S & S Motorcycle for your Clearview shield.  He will treat you right.

Welcome aboard allber. Ya come to the right place. Don't listen to godfire. Everyone knows that maroon and cream Valks are the prettiest and fastest and get the most girls!

You'll enjoy the Valk more and more as you ride it.  I don't get into the chat room as much as I would like, but I hope to see you in there some time.....

Thanks for the "headsup"...

My Valkyrie is dark red with ghost flames (I think that's what they're called).  Origional owner (I am the 3rd owner) added just about every chrome piece available.  However, the bike has been stored under cover for the past year or so, so there's some rust "issues".  Nothing too serious, just some work cleaning it up.  It has less than 20,000 miles on it and runs perfect...
The Sportster is "Cobalt Blue" and is for sale!

Welcome to the club!

Welcome, Alber! Looks like they gave you some good info on plastic. There are some good folks out East Texas way that ride Valks, that is for sure! You are in good company! ~Jeff

John I'm not smart enough to know how to post a picture here.  I have a couple of pics saved and can email them to you if you like.  Don't have the bike listed anywhere right now except "East Texas Peddler" out of Lufkin.

This is true, I rode my Sportster for 5 years before I got my Valk.
500 miles on the Sportster and I need a day to recover.
The weekend I test drove the Valkyrie I put 500 miles on it and was ready to go another 500.
I couldn't believe how smooth it was on the high-way, but to be fair to the Sporster they are not the same class of bike at all. My Sportster is for sale too.

I bought my Sportster from a friend in December last year. It's a 2007 and only had 180 miles on it when I got it.  I hadn't ridden, at all, since the late 1980's and figured it would be a good "starter bike".  Wrong.  I spent a small forture in shocks, springs, seats, etc. trying to smooth it out some. Nothing helped much.  It's a little better now, but still way to rough for me.  The Valk is terrific!  A little scary though, way more "go" than the Sporty!

You listen to GodFire - he's absolutely right about blue being fastest. 

And just because more women ride the maroon and cream Valks does not mean they get the most girls.....

You start this motorcycle with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into... the Valkyrie Zone.

You go, Rainmaker!
