1998 Honda Valkyrie F6C 1520 cc. Very low miles at 26,8XX...these easily run well over 100,000 miles and are just getting broken in. This is one of the best handling, smoothest, and most powerful motorcycles I have ever ridden but I just don't use it enough to warrant hanging on to it. It is a big bike that handles like a dream and has more power than you could ever want. I bought this to upgrade from a Shadow ACE and my intention was to buy a bike big enough to never feel the need to upgrade...this certainly fit the bill. Upgrades over stock include: Hondaline windshield and sissy bar, fork lowers, Kuryakyn curved LED lay-down license plate with run/turn/brake signals, chrome oil filter cover, chrome swing arm pivot cover, and leather swept studded saddlebags with side pockets. Both tires are new within the last year. The maintenance has been meticulous. If you don't know about these bikes, the final drives are extremely precise and buying one with a worn pinion cup or splines is not good. These are in perfect condition and have always been maintained properly. New o-rings (even the elusive third o-ring), moly grease and moly paste where appropriate, and new differential fluid. I do have a service manual that comes with it as well as some maintenance parts for future use. 4 sets of final drive o-rings, a set of intake runner o-rings and upgraded wheel dampers. The intake rings and dampers on the bike are perfectly fine, I just bought them for future use. It has an on bike jack adapter so this bike can be lifted without risking damage to the exhaust. Most people have to have an adapter on their jack or they make one out of wood. Having it on the bike means that it is always with you if somebody needs to do some work and doesn't have a lift table. The original, undamaged tail light assembly is included, as well as the any miscellaneous things I have for it: bike cover, an oil filter or 2, some cleaning compounds such as wax, bug remover, Never-Dull, etc. The only dings on the bike were there when I bought it from the previous/original owner and were explained as follows: the fork lowers on slightly to low and the clamps contacted the fender on either side, directly inboard of the fork tubes. You'd have to really be looking to see them but the marks are there as shown in the pics. The bike was being moved in an enclosed truck and a heavy item (he never specified) fell into the engine guard on one side and knocked scuffed the engine guard against the other wall. Those were replaced with what he thought were new ones but they ended up being scuffed. The same accident put a scuff in the right side valve cover. This bike has never been down in any way, shape, or form. The seat has one 1/4" or less triangular cut, probably from a rivet on the previous owners jeans. They are very minor items but due to the nature of buying a big ticket item on eBay, I want to be as transparent as possible. Title is clean, clear, and in hand.
