So, it's still got the gas the dealer put in it?

So in 7 miles he put tranny covers and pivot arm covers on it, then never rode it.

Sounds fishy..... I would think there'd be a picture of the odometer for such a low mileage machine....

If it's true, it would still be under Honda warranty.
Once bought a 10 yr old Rune that was never registered but had 3200 miles on it. P.O. Rode it with faded dealer tags on it.
Honda paid for $4k worth of warranty work (front shock that squeeked,warped rotor, and replaced 6 throttle bodies to address a bad TPS.) I then bought the extended warranty, giving me a 5 yr warranty on a 10 yr old bike.

Cruise/abs ? Pretty sure no valkyrie came equipped with cruise or abs from the factory. The deluxe means chrome wheels, and pumpkin from what I have gathered.

All the 03 models had polished and clear coated rims. Something does not seem right here. No close up pictures at all. And how was it stored,, gas in it ? Who knows

Y'all may remember a coupe of years ago when one of my ex Valks showed up with something like 12,000 or some real low mileage on it on Craigslist up in Ohio, I think. I had sold that bike about 3 years before with 107,000 miles on it. The dealer who was selling was contacted and he did further checking and pulled the add. It is easy to misrepresent the mileage on a well maintained Valkyrie.

Should be easy to see if the VIN has been registered.

I might have my brother-in-law look into this one for me. He is nearby in Fort Myers... I do believe it has the original tires so I would be leery of any speed. He also has a KLR 650 so the bit about the toys need to go prolly rings true. Anyway, not sure about fluids, rear end etc. It has been listed off an on for quite some time. We are flooded with 1500s on the west cost of Fl.
