where can i find a chrome oil dipstick and radiator hose for my 97 valk standard

[blackvalkyrie]

I've seen  pictures of valkyries with a chrome radiator hose and I like it...any ideas where to find it?
also, a chrome oil dipstick?
I've searched the net but it seems slowly but surely valkyrie parts are being discontinued

Got my chrome stick, rad cap cover and I/S carburetor springs from these guys  https://www.directlineparts.com/

Show Chrome was a manufacturer of both items. The dip stick is still avalable thru many distributors..

The lower radiator hose is not, there were many sources including two brother, show chrome.. but we have a bike that been out of production for over 10 years...
You might find a used one or go with a braided cover...

I REALLY like my Tel-Tru dipstick. The temp gauge looks and works great.

That's cool! and surprisingly enough the price is reasonable

That Show Chrome/BigBikeParts radiator hose cover was a notorious leaker, and is best avoided, even if you could find one.  You can get braided stainless (but securing it at both ends neatly can be tricky) or the Interstate slinky* (not chrome but better than just a hose).

Bought the hose slinky for the Interstate model and polished it up. Looks like chrome. Good looks and no worries about leaking.
