Hi guys, I'm ADonf! I used to ride Hayabusas, mostly and I recently acquired a 2014 Valkyrie, just because I love it. I'm still breaking it in after two months because it was in pieces at the shop, getting a custom pain job applied to it's roughly 35 body parts. I have never left any of my bikes with a stock paint, but it is the first time that I do it to a brand new bike. Every marking giving a clue of brand and model is gone. I'm making Northrop-Grumman labels to confuse people even more. I'm in AZ.  |

Congrats on the bike, we'll need to see pictures of that paint job when it's all back together.  Those logos you're making up to cause some double-takes for sure.  |

Very blessed to own both an 1800 and 1500, making a very satisfied owner. Yes please post pics of this paint job. Sounds very impressive for sure.  |
