2016 Valk, Black, aluminum head covers.
Anyway they had a $12500 for it. I liked the look, I asked about Wing Saddle bags and the salesman told be no, they would not fit??? Will they?
I think with a nice wind screen and wing bags, I would be an owner....the looks have grown on me in a couple of years...

Have you looked at eBay to see the low pricing there?

I've seen them under 12K new.
I have not driven one yet since wanted to and Honda dealer didn't have one ready to drive besides one on showroom floor, but he let me drive a deluxe F6B and darn near had me hooked besides 17K price tag. 12 vs. 17K being 5K is an awful lot of dough just to add side bags and a few extra accessories since same bike basically. I did like the feel of the F6B ergos sitting on it though over the new Valk, but until I ride one, hard to really tell.

Why not just get an F6B? There is your bags and wind screen |

There is no doubt the new Valkyrie and F6B will out handle and out perform our old Fat Ladies. I've really tried to like them but have only had limited success up to this point but, they will run off and leave us in their dust. Having said that, if I was a lottery winner, I would consider the F6B but, it's going to have a bit of a face lift before going public. Not real sure what all that would include but, some plastic is definitely being left on the cutting table.  |

The love for the 1500 can never die. It is too addictive of a bike. Timeless beauty.
Sorry but I feel I have the best of both worlds. I love my wife!!!

While I tend to agree, I am not going there in reference to the wife. |

I made the OEM shield work for me, and Corbin bags...  People have also asked me - why not just get an F6B if you want bags? The F6B is very different than the stripped down F6C, even after you put bags on it... -Mike |
