Description

Offered for sale is my highly customized Honda Valkyrie Tourer motorcycle. This exceptional bike has been a dear friend and trusty companion and needs a new owner able to handle this big beast. Warning - this is NOT a motorcycle for new or inexperienced riders. She is a BIG GIRL and is essentially a high performance car engine in a motorcycle frame. With over 100 hp and over 100 ft/lbs of torque. this bike can handle all your gear plus a passenger and easily do 500+ comfortable miles a day - if you're up to it. This is one of the first model year Valkyrie Tourer models from Honda outfitted with hard bags and a windshield. The original owner spared no expense in upgrading and customizing her with Dupont color-shifting paint. Cobra chrome throughout. custom Corbin seats. Two Brothers racing exhaust and much more. She has been garage kept. ridden only a few times every year and lovingly maintained. With only 32k miles on the clock. she is ready for a new owner who will ride her well. I am selling only because I am switching over to sailboats and I'm guessing she doesn't float well (not that I've tried).
