I have a 2001 standard imported to UK from Texas. No regrets, not one. I've had a lot of large cruisers including a VTX 1800C, Triumph Rocket III Touring, and Goldwing 1800GL - still have the Wing. BUT, this is the favourite and crazy cheap for what it is. I've ridden fully loaded 850 miles in one hop and she didn't miss a beat. A little heavy on the juice (who cares!) and the standard rear shocks are a little too stiff even on the softest setting, but it is what it is. An eye catcher, and you can't help but smile when you're out on the road with her.

Yes, I enjoyed my valkyrie very much. It did show its age a little bit, i did alot of research on it before buying mine, and it exceeded expectations. I had to downsize a bit so i no longer have the valkyrie, but i do still have 5 motorcycles. Stay tuned on my channel to see what other toys i get in my garage

I have seen Valkyrie motorcycles with 200,000 miles on them. Keep them serviced and change the timing belts when recommended and you won't have any issues, I have owned 4 of them, I have a 2000 right now, I love those bikes. I have owned Harleys as well, but overall I think the Valkyrie is the better bike.
