Cool. I believe that is/was my Dad's Valk that I sold to Alex Puls a couple years ago. Alex is the manager of Billy Joel's collection. I had the bike listed on eBay.

The first message from Alex through eBay asked if I would accept a check when the truck arrived to pick it up. I thought "Here comes a scam". I just about didn't respond to it. A day later I thought I would play along for a bit.

After a few emails and phone calls, the money was wired to my account. Bike picked up a couple weeks later.

Glad to see it is on display!

Oh, and FYI, we sold it because Dad had his '99 Red/Black and I had two ('99 Red/Black & '01 Maroon/Black). Dad will be 76 in August and is riding the '01. He attended Inzane in Eureka Springs.
