Found this when I opened MSNthis afternoon.  Cool write up comparing 97 Valkyrie to Harley Road King and Yamaha Royal Star.

Of course, I am a bit geared towards the Valk.......... but all 3 were good bikes.

Interesting read. From the way the article reads, I expected the Yammy to be rated the worst of the three, but looking at the scores, it beat out the HD in two riders' scoring and tied in the third...with the Valk taking honors in all three riders' estimations.

I'd be curious to know how many Road Kings and Royal Star Deluxes are still on the road, compared to how many Valkyries are still out there.
