Well today got a chance to have William work on my Valkyrie

Oh Boy Howdee it sounds great

He replaced the steering bearings, changed the belts and pulleys,
new plugs (they only had 57000 but the gap was gettin big), adjusted my Progressive shocks so I can see if they are played out.   Tomorrow over the TZ bridge I will know if I need to replace them

Bike sounds great  !!!!!

too bad its lightning wanted to go swimming
He is gonna do Gmans electrical and Marty from LI is coming up tomorrow

Great visit and folks you need to let him know if you need work before he heads home

He says his next stop back to Maryland for swap overhaul carb then down to NC then to Alt.

MMrider got lucky

He had both a hole in his petcock diaphram and a hole in the gas line

yikes

BigBF also did a carb synch and I think he worked on his brake calipers

Dont worry G-Man he has started your bike, but taking a pizza break

Hey , Bill: if you want to swing by Michigan, there are a few guys that need work. I need head bearings , Romeo is having major engine issues, I know we can round up some more work to make it worthwhile for you to come over a few days :cooldude:
You can park next to my pole barn and plug in there as long as you want - we have dog treats!
Please, let me know if you can make it, I will round up the guys to come get in line  :coolsmiley:
Everything is - Nothing is .


When you come to a fork in the road - TAKE IT!
(send it to OSS)

I'm putting in a call to the League Office!   🎳

It was fortuitous that I traveled 46+ miles north to Oss' (much appreciate you and Bonnie hosting Bill and allowing me to hangout all day yesterday.) .  Bill discovered a leak in the primary fuel line and a hole in the petcock's diaphragm!!!  

Bill also rebuilt and cleaned the brake calipers, replaced the 6 'O' rings and sync'd the carbs.

Bike is REAL smooth and the pick-up is awesome and most importantly, safe to use.

Many thanks Bill!!!  :cooldude: :cooldude: :cooldude:

Sound awesome...
I'll be there late Aug after y nephew wedding in Ohio then families going to devil lake in Michigan after that I'll be over your place.
FYI electric for my trailer 30 amp or 50 amp will do I have cable to make it work. If not available can always add new one for future or temporary hook up.
GCFI will not work be of the generator has grounded so it will trip the breaker.

There's a guy want me to fix his Valk and I asked if he can come over he said yes he can so is it ok with u? His handle is Simmy74 or Dave he live in LaPeer MI.

Ask Romeo what kind of problem he have with engine? Or describe the problem?

Thanks
