I finally took the big plunge and grabbed a Valkyrie off of Ebay form a local seller. He kept up this Valk and had lots of chrome extras on it as well as the 6 into 6 pipes I wanted. Got it at a great price for all of the accessories. This page will keep track of all the trips. modification, etc on this great cruiser...
First Project to do (that I am documenting)

In this shot I have removed the Corbin Beetle bags to expose the chrome shocks and chromed rear wheel. I now see I need the Driveshaft cover, bolts cover, and swing arm cover. The guy who sold me the bike says he has the covers and will dig them up for me. I may trade the bags off to a guy in VRCC that makes seats, see if he can make me one with a dragon... that would be cool... keep you posted!
And the last pictures are shots of the stable as it currently sits. I am trying to sell off a bunch of furniture to make more room so I can spread them out a little. I am also looking for a good old Honda to teach my wife and daughter to ride on.... an early 70s CB176 to 450 would be good I think. Be watching for another addition. Look at the 200 on the Valk... sweet!

Can you see the 1975 Gold metal flake helmet with the bubble shield on it?
