I'm a chromaholic but I "Got er done", seat rail on my baby

Whew

It took a while, after I regrettably sold my old one a few years back, never thinking I'd have 2 Valks and would want one again, I got this one from Bronxboy.
Helping me along the way were Tundra, and Sheff with their input.



What else will this chrome whore score? WHo knows, but it's fun dressing her up!

See I knew this was one fine looking machine, good job Bill you have skills. Thanks for posting pics of her. Those Cree driving lights, did you have the housings chromed or are they polished ?

I love my seat rail.  

Besides the looks, it's the perfect solid handhold to move the bike around, and a great bungee point for stuff on the solo rack.

On the downside, it makes pulling the shocks for rear end service/tires a bit more difficult.  It don't wanna bend at all (to slide the mounts off the frame studs).  The rear mount bolt head also chewed up the bottom of my old bigboy seat a little bit, sliding the seat on and off (mine is an older model with thinner stock).

And that is as sharp a Valk as anyone could ever want.

She's a beauty for sure Bill, very nice one of a kind I'm glad you scored the seat rail.

The driving lights are polished only, thanks for the kind words.

Looks great and I'm glad there are solo mostly that would get to show it off. With me riding two up 90% of the time it would just collect dust.

Hey Jess
I know what you mean about chewing up your seat a little. I had to put a little black electrical tape on my black bike to protect the seat as well.

Thank you as well for the complimentary  comment about my bike.

Bill, I had the same tape on my old seat.  I should have put it on sooner.  The damage didn't show much with seat on, but it was chewed.  I replaced it a couple years ago with a new bigboy, and so far no problem.
