Congratulations on the new-to-you Valkyrie!
I won't be along your route, but how are the others supposed to tell you apart from all the other guys riding red & black Interstates with huge grins on their faces?

I'm curious as to Who you bought yer I/S from. I know one guy in Tulsa. Fact is I've been out to his shop. Good luck on good roads and dry weather on the way back east. RIDE SAFE. |

I've purchased and ridden home five Valkyries. The longest ride was just under 3,000 miles. It was a great adventure. You're in for a treat. Enjoy the ride home. |
