Has anybody had Traxxion fork springs installed on their Valkyrie? The Traxxion springs (as well as complete front fork and rear spring rebuild kits) are very popular with GL1800 Goldwingers who want a major improvement in handling. Has anyone gotten Traxxion fork springs or other front fork replacement parts for their Valk?

Hi,
    Had both on my gl1800 well pleased.. .. they do a rebuild for the rear as it is a single shock for the gl1800.. when i asked about the valkyrie.. i could not beleive it when they recomended progressive for the rear...so i assume they didnt make any for the Valkyrie as it is an old model, that was about 8 months ago, might have changed since..
What you see is what you get...

Got the fork cartridges in my 1500 Wing and love them.  With my original plans for the Valk, I couldn't justify the cost on it.  If you're going to keep it for a while, though, I say go for 'em.  They don't build a shock for the rear, and had told me Bitubo made good ones, but I went with Progressives on the rear given the popularity on the board and my previous experience on other bikes.
