Where would one find an instruction page? Such as whats needed,where to hide speaker wires, where to cut those wires. Looking for good step by step instructions. Search feature did not turn up anything. TIA

I always thought a "Super Valk" was one with a blower, i.e. supercharger?

Here's a good start for the nuts and bolts of it:

As far as speaker wires, I would just unplug under the right-side cover. Mine are aftermarket Electrical Connection speaker wires, I ran them along the trunk rails anyway, so it can come off as one piece. I don't know about the factory speaker wire setup, but I can only imagine it pretty much does the same thing.

For the taillight wiring, I think there is also a plug on the right side near in front of the rear fender; but you have to double check that one.

Don't forget you need to add a Standard/Tourer taillight also.

Here is one reference page.... This is what I went off of.... some of the pics links are expired or broken, but you can still get the idea from the thumbnails.

Basically, if you have an Interstate model, what "they" consider a SuperValk (my understanding) is to remove the trunk, (modify the trunk rack to be quick detachable, also put a trailer plug on your wiring), install a Tourer tail light, get some hot pipes and tune her to perfection. Be forewarned... There doesn't seem to be an end to it once you tear into this project. Good Luck!

Yeah, next thing you know, you'll be repainting it Chevy Hugger Orange with SS stripes!  Right, Doug?   ;)

People are more passionately opposed to wearing fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than bikers.

Right Marty... That orange isn't for everyone.... but it's perfect for me... *shrugs* Gotta have a theme of some kind :D
