Hey all,
Just joined the forum.
I used to have a VTX1800F. Unfortunately I had to sell it when I got divorced.
After the dust settled from that I said to myself that my next bike would be a Valk. So here I am. Havent found my new baby yet, but looking. I found that my credit took a major hit from the divorce, and most banks wont finance a older style Valk so I'm saving my pennies.
Fortunatley I took a new job that will give me a 10K bonus after six months...guess what I'm using that for?
In the mean time I hope you folks dont mind if I hang out and learn some things about the Valk, and pick up a few tips
Thanks

Welcome to all the shy and bashful family members. The only dumb question is the one you do not know and do not ask. There are many Valks for sale and a good source for an excellent one is from atticrat.
I buy and re-furbish Valks , but not to the quality of atticrat.

I am a new Valk rider and have fallen in love with the motorcycle.
Great place to learn about the bike, find parts, and just a lot of good reads.
