I really like that look. The whitewalls make it!

Did you have the seats done locally, or are they from one of the aftermarket outfits?

Thanks for the makes and prices on your tire selections. I currently have in white wall front only a Shinko S R 777 In 140-80-17 that I'm liking a lot. On my Green and Silver I/S I get quite a few good comments and I've had one or two negative comments. The 777 is also a wide white wall. I kinda like the old school look white walls give a M/C. If the Austone Taxi Tire came in W/W I'd have that on the back but-alas-it do not come in W/W.  Lips Sealed RIDE SAFE.

Got a picture?, would love to see your ride with the WW tires. I went with the white walls because the Valkyrie always reminded me of a hot rod from the 60's and thought it would be a good match; I'm very happy with the look it now has.

 I've seen so many creative touches that the members have done to their Valks on this forum alone, and I've liked them all.

Fergitted to mention that the gray paint on the inside of the spokes have been cleaned and sanded and panted a dayglo green that is actually nail polish. And I also hand polished the wheels and the fork lowers. I DO like how yours is turning out-VERY nice!  cooldude RIDE SAFE.
