I happen to have a set of VTX seats, and though I can't recall precisely why, I know they won't fit out of the box.  I'll look tonight, but as I recall dimly, the VTX mounts like the shadow, with two bolts from the sides and locks in under the front (tank).  The Valk hangs in under the back and locks down with the key latch.  That all being said, who knows what one might be able to make work.  It's a good looking seat.

Checked it out.  It's not going to work without herculean effort. It mounts like I said before, completely unlke the valk. I don't think the lines are even right if you built some brackets to make it fit, it wouldn't sit right on the bike.  It just doesn't match up.
