I am still around.
Yep, haven't left yet and I'll be around for sometime to come.
I have not ridden any of my Valks since March. I have a new Indian and wanted to put a bunch-o-miles on it this year
Have no current plans to sell any of my Valks either.
Glad to be a VRCC member

Great news! Wouldn't be the same around here without ya... I acknowledge the fact there are many folks who own multiple bikes... however, I'm simply not one... I did try it once, but it just didn't take with me...
No problem, though, and more power to those who do roll that way... It's through variety and the sharing of our experiences that we can all view the world through a different lens than our own and gain a broader perspective.
Anyway, I'm curious how that Indian is holding up, and what it's like on a road trip, if you've taken it on any yet... Any long days in the saddle? I would expect a bike of that type would have a different ride and very different type of ride to offer than something like a Valk... but, I wouldn't actually know myself.

Well George....finally, was wondering recently why we hadn't heard anything from your camp. Glad to hear you're still kicking tires, I'm with DDT....how's about some input on the Indian; comfort, mileage, the usual stuff. Also, how's the health for the both of you?  |

Ran into a couple in aug out in Glacier and they had a Indian dresser. They been on the since May and might be home at the end of Sept. He said its the best bike he had owed and the most comfortable and hes owned a lot of HD's.

nothing wrong with having 2 or 3, possibly even 4, on two wheels if you have the places to store them all, why not? If the deal is too good to pass up right?? I have a 249cc scoot, a 1520cc Valk, and have my eyes on a honda silverwing near 600cc scoot as well that has just been lowered yet another 200 bucks. HMMM.........  If the guy wants it sold, I might low ball him another 200 bucks off already a decent price seeing as how snow is coming in next 1-2 weeks or so as long as I can still drive it home with no snow on the ground some 120 miles away or so.. |

Sounds like you like that little rocket, George. I rode one at an open house, loved it for the light feel and high revving motor. I found it to be a blast, just a little to spendy for this soon to be retired guy.
