Well when a very good friend of mine introdiced me to the Honda Valkyrie between 7 and 8 years ago I wanted to own 1 of all3 trim levels. Gavin Sons, that friend was your late father-in-law and the first Valk I rode was the one you now have.
In June of 2011 I got my first, a 1999 Standard. Dec 2013 came the Tourer. Well March 11, 2015 came a 1999 Interstate. Interstate is red/black. Another friend who ?I got hookedon Valkyries bought it. After riding it some he decided his Standard was better suited for him so the I/S was up for adoption. Well the rest is history. After some badly needed maintenance, air filters can be replaced not a "for life of vehicle item". And some cleaning I now own all 3 trim levels.
Sad part is due to storage area gonna have to let the Standard go.
Here's a pic of my friend (Donut as we know him on this forum) and I on the twinkie bikes. HAHA

Would one of these help with your storage problem?

Britman - they make one even smaller than  that now. Don't know the manufacturer but the front tire of the bike stays on the ground and the kick stand and the rear tire are on the "lift".

I guess this proves we're not related, because in my family that's referred to as bumping up against the stuff:space ratio. 

Seems we never reduce stuff.   Roll Eyes   We increase space.   Grin
