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
