I'd say that it's definitely a 1500 Valk |

Yes, a blown or turbo one.
I'm wondering about the rear side cover.

The side covers were made by Corbin and are very hard to find. |

Not too sure about a blower or turbo but what we do know is the oem air box must be gone and replaced with those big chrome breathers. Pretty sure it is not blown, and if it has the other exhaust it is not turbocharged. |

It does look familiar, I do believe it's blown, as you pointed out that can't be turbo (at least on this side) as the exhaust doesn't go to it.

The abilities of the VRCC members never ceases to amaze me. I'd like to see what this guy could do with one of the new 1800 Valks. |

Saw it in person a few years ago. Not blown, what I could tell was he reversed the carbs so they pointed out and put air filter on. Last time I saw it was in Northwest Indiana on a bike night.
