[_Sheffjs_]

I think most have seen my bike ad my trophy already 

Uh huh.   Just u wait.    Let's mess with the mind here-- part 1500 part 1800.  Go ahead scratch your cranium.   Ha ha ha 

[OnaWingandaPrayer]

I hope there are pictures to follow . How come I have to work anyhow ? Ya'll have fun !

[John Schmidt]

I think most have seen my bike and my trophy already  

Mine too....or is it three.    See those pictures on either side, those are the real trophies. 
And mine is part 1500 and part V-twinkie.

[larue]

cant wait to  see it in person, may be  an 1800  FI engine in a 1500 frame 
remains to be seen 

[OnaWingandaPrayer]

So I see in one photo what looks to be a 1500 Valk with an 1800 swingarm >?  Am I close ? dang I wish I could have been there to check this out.

You diversionary little devil..you knew all along.  

That is an amazing Valk you have there Jack. I literally did not recognize you, or it, when you pulled into the BK parking lot. Very nice ride...albeit a tad on the loud side. 

[John Schmidt]

I'd like to know what has to be done to mount that swingarm in our Valk. Since it's a single side arm type I'm assuming the Valk frame would have to be beefed up a bit to handle the different torsion stresses. Beautiful ride Jack, can't hide money.   

[James III]

  Very impressive Jack! WOW!!

[Flrider]

Thank you guys for all the compliments, it is a fun bike to ride and it is definitely LOUD, right Jeff 


Jeff
Larue and I were both working on getting our "new to us bikes" Pizza Party show worthy 

John
the frame has a cross member that was welded on, it replaced the original one and the shock attaches to it.

[Farside]

Dang!  I was so close to seeing your fine new ride Jack. I LIKE IT, LOTS. :
    Maybe one of these days. 

[Bronxboy]

If I win the bid on a front end damaged F6, I will be building something soon as well.

Jack and Larue,

They are looking for pictures to be used in the Valk calendar.  I think it was Willow that posted it.  I would like to see both bikes entered.  You guys should go for it, maybe at the B-52 at Orlando's airport (MCO).

Beautiful machine Jack  can't wait to hear it.

[OLDFRT]

SWEEEEEEET machine there, Jack. I presume that you wanted a louder bike so that my Harley wouldn't  drown yours out????

[flsix]

A great idea Gil.

Will try to go for it if time and me being able to take a decent picture works out.

It is LOUD and you can hear it from far away.

I guess that from now on, when I ride the beast, I will have to ride sweep

I think I will be taking  "the loudest bike of the group " honors from now on

I'll second that nomination my friend!!  

Sure is cool though.

That Is Definitely One Nicely Modified Valkyrie You Have There Jack ! 

The Thing About Those Loud Pipes Is; The Loudness Makes You Want To Stay In The Throttle , Therefore Making More Noise !
That Is Why I Took Those TBR Pipes Off Of The Bumble-Bee.
After A While You Start To Lose Your Hearing, Especially If You Travel Any Distance.

[IamGCW]

Not quite Jack bike, but loud.

[BCoy]

That was great Gil! 

[FloridaValkRyder]

 

[Flrider]

Nice one Gil 

[Valkahuna]

Wow! 

That's a Valk with lots of work and fantastic results. Congrats. Another reason I am sorry to have missed the party. 

Not crazy about "loud" though.      All that "Loud bikes saves lives" crap has been proven to be false. It just pisses people off to the point where they don't like bikers and give them even less of a break. Ask any "non" biker what they dislike the most about MC, and it will be noise and weaving in and out through traffic.  Hey, JMO,YMV.

[FloridaValkRyder]

P.S. -  I'm not so sure Jack is crazy about the loudness either. Makes him easy to follow though, even several hundred feet back I could tell when he was on the gas or off the gas. 

[Valkahuna]

As was said, he'll be riding sweep a lot. 

[Scoop171]

Jack "Wow" Your bike looks Great! Cannot wait to see it and hear it! I like the sound of the 1500 engine. Let that dragon roar!!

Thank you for your support 

It sure is different and fun to ride, I am keeping my Interstate for long hauls and when I want a quiet ride 

One thing I have to say is that this bike gets lots of attention where ever I go, even while riding down the road,  people giving me the thumbs up or kids waiving.

You also have a couple of nice looking rides, maybe one of this days I'll be able to see your Boss Hoss as well
