looks sharp and blends right in.  All it needs now is a windshield able to block wind/bugs off the face and a better passenger seat with backrest.  I guess then it would be very close to an F6B?

Prices are coming down for sure keep waiting and if not selling, might be down to 10 grand new in a few years?  Roll Eyes

I am debating with myself for one I really don't need another vehicle car or motorcycle but I really like the way the new one looks with the bags. But the bags are 1800.00 along with a new seat, windshield and a few other add ons it would still come out to more than I prefer to spend. I really don't want to get rid of my current Valk either. I want to have both for awhile, not so willing to let my all done up Valk go just yet. I also must admit while ridging around today in this beautiful weather after washing the bike, I did think of all the chrome that would be missing.

Would consider trading in one of my interstates for one, but the wife would kill me if I spent any more money. Cry

The bags do help the look of the Valkyrie but, the windscreen they've come up with is not acceptable.    If I was going to buy one, I'm pretty sure I'd choose the F6B over the Valkyrie.

In reference to the additional accessory, I doubt she's available.
While I really like what I see, I'm pretty sure I can't afford that particular accessory.   
It might look like it comes free but, I'm here to tell ya, the daily maintenance of that particular accessory gets expensive.

    Ron, maybe you could work out a low mileage lease arrangement then you would have two rides for the price of one and no long term commitment! cooldude

John, why do you think she's interested?
First, I'm not low mileage, I'm experienced.   Secondly, I doubt she can afford me.   2funny

Edited:   The thought just occurred to me, you may have been suggesting I could do the lease?  
Nah, surely you didn't mean that.   Wink

You can always test ride it and make sure it fits?  Just saying?  cooldude

I wonder if the kickstand in that position will hold 2?   Roll Eyes

Uh, yeah....no, they didn't dress 'em like that when I was in high school. 

Back in '69, '70 and '71, they had dress codes.  Teachers used to go around with rulers measuring the girls dress length and the boys hair length.
