| Ultimate Seats | Ultimate Seats | Online | 4 | Kuhjay | 21402 | 05/22/09 |
| Description: Interstate Seats | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Wasted Way Too Much Money. As an overall summary: Looks great, WAY too expensive, VERY uncomfortable, nasty customer service, and no support within <1 year of purchase. Buyer beware. There's no better looking seat, but that bit about sitting "in it, not on it," is a load of crap. Never had a chance to speak with Des when I made the purchase, but the service I received from the person I did deal with was less than friendly (hard to believe when they're selling these things for >$1,000 --- more than you'd spend on a typical sofa). The driver's seat feels like there's a hump in the middle, and it certainly wears on your tail bone after only short ride. And after 4,000 miles, and less than a year, I contacted Des to see if Ultimate had any suggestions, or solutions to offer. His response can be summarized by saying "You have the right model --- you're on your own." It's tough not using colorful metaphors to truly describe what I'm feeling. I'm replacing these with the much much more comfortable Mustang as soon as I can. | ||||||

| Description: Custom decals. This vendor has a large selection on hand and can also make decals from photos you send. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Just wanted to tell everyone about a fantastic vendor if you're looking for decals for your ride. He also makes custom decals. You send him the photo and he'll adjust it to what ever size you need. His decals already come clear coated so you can simply apply them over your paint, or, you can have them with out the clear coat if you are re-painting so your decal/picture can be placed on the new paint job and then clear coated to give a completely uniform finish. I sent this fella a photo that I'd like to have on my tank. I had mentioned that the tank was already at the paint shop. He called me within 1 hour of my initial e-mail and told me that he could have my finished decal sent to me within 2 days. We called each other a few time during the same day with more suggestions regarding the best way to present the photo (sizing, borders, ect.) Talk about fantastic customer service!

| Valkyrie Dragon Exhaust - ** UPDATE ** | Ernie Schuster | From the man himself | 10 | RMRC | 30041 | 03/13/09 |
| Description: PAKS AND STACKS ARE FULLY INTERCHANGEABLE ONCE YOUR STOCK EXHAUST HAS BEEN MODIFIED. UNLIKE THE COMPETITION, IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE SOUND OR LOOK OF YOUR DRAGONS, YOU CAN! THE PAKS AND STACKS ARE EASILY REMOVABLE AND REPLACEABLE WITHOUT REMOVING THE HEADERS FROM THE 15OOCC MILL. TRY DOING THAT WITH THE COMPETITORS PIPES WITHOUT DAMAGING THEM. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: F.Y.I. ERNIE HAS A NEW WEBSITE; http://f6dragonexhaust.multiply.com/tag/custom%20page As an update, these packs sound Fantastic! My Trike setup has 38" stacks with the 18" small bore glass packs. She has a nice low muffled rumble at idle which is equal to stock in my opinion. As you increase the RPM, she begins to growl. Not like a harsh small block! This system has a kind of smooth/quality tone to it. Love the sound! | ||||||
| Dyna 3000 | na | na | 10 | esmith1721 | 28621 | 03/05/09 |
| Description: Ignition module | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Installed on 98 Valkyrie standard. Setting 3 gives the best ride with lots of increased midrange torque and the engine is smooth. More power from idle to redline. Lots of bang for the buck. | ||||||
| Ultimate Seats | Ultimate Seats | http://www.ultimateseats.ca/index.html | 10 | RMRC | 30041 | 02/17/09 |
| Description: 4 piece Big Boy / Blinker Buddy / 2 Embroidered Logo's / Two Tone with studs / Rain covers | ||||||
| Satisfaction: My 97 Valk Trike (Motor Trike) had Corbin seats when I recently bought her. They seemed too low and hard. Possibly due to age, the padding had lost it's resiliency. After reading many reviews I chose to go with Ultimate Seats. I'm very happy I did! These seats are a vast improvement over the Corbins! Extremely comfortable, top quality workmanship and they look fantastic! I also added the "Blinker Buddy" option. Now when one of the turn signals are activated, there's no way to forget they're on with the vibration in the seat! These seats keep you comfortably placed in one position eliminating the slight forward sliding when braking. Great product, great customer support! | ||||||
| Valkyrie Dragon Exhaust / Dragon Packs | Valkyriedragonexhaust@yahoo.com / Ernie Schuster | From the Dragon Exhaust King himself | 10 | RMRC | 30041 | 02/13/09 |
| Description: Custom Exhaust system for the Valkyrie with interchangeable glass packs and silencers. http://groups.msn.com/valkyriedragonpacks/valkyriedragonpacks.msnw | ||||||
| Satisfaction: This truly is a worth while upgrade for the Valkyire! The quality, workmanship and best of all the looks and sound is top shelf! The fact that you can change glass packs makes this system unique! I have the Dragon Packs installed on my Valkyire which has a Motor Trike conversion. The only additional step regarding installation with the Motor Trike is that you need to have or make and adapter plate to lower the attachment point on the rear foot bracket approximately 1 inch. My install went flawlessly and Ernie was only a phone call away to answer all questions! Fantastic customer support!!!!! Highly recommended!!!! Oh,, did I forget to tell you about the sound???? Fantastic!! | ||||||
| Dragons Packs | Ernie Shuster Dragon Packs | Ernie Shuster | 10 | Road Rage Ralph | 877 | 01/10/09 |
| Description: 12" Dragon Packs, 36" Cannons | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I shipped my pipes on a saturday and the very next saturday the completed pipes were sitting on my doorstep! Fantastic customer service. I was having some other work done by TNT Motorsports so I had them install the pipes since it was there. Tommy from TNT is a master fabricator and bike builder and it takes a lot to impress him and he even commented that the quality of the workmanship was outstanding! The pipes look gorgeous on the bike and it finally sounds like it should have all along, nice deep rumble at idle and sounds like a V8 muscle car when revved. Thanks Ernie! | ||||||

| Winter Riding Gear | Tourmaster Synergy | Renegade Classics, Middletown, N.Y. | 9 | Dan | 28837 | 10/18/08 |
| Description: heated vest and gloves | ||||||
| Satisfaction: This morning (34* temp) I rode to work with my new Tourmaster Heated Vest and Synergy Gloves. The vest is everything it’s advertized to be - had to power it down to medium setting in minutes; heat was uniformly distributed and did an excellent job. Gloves are comfortable, not too bulky and seem to work well. Had to keep them on the High setting for adequate warmth, and the only part of my hand that got a little cold was in the thumbs. All-in-all…very happy. Dan in N.J. | ||||||

| seat | Mustang | local Honda dealer | 2 | Johnk | 26219 | 09/25/08 |
| Description: Mustang riders seat with backrest and passenger seat | ||||||
| Satisfaction: OK for first hour or so but after that get numb bum. A lot of money for a mediocre to poor seat. The 2000 seat I have is more comfortable. The Mustang is a big disappointment. | ||||||
| lever | ebay vendor | ebay | 5 | sixpak | 29745 | 09/23/08 |
| Description: Chrome adjustable levers | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Chrome is good, the adjustability of the lever is questionable, but I have big hands so it does not matter much. The clutch lever is too short by about 2" and they are the same length as the stock ones. Too narrow also compared to Kurayakens. This guy always sells levers on ebay (has a granite stone background) for all bikes. I paid $30, so I can't complain too much ;). | ||||||

| 9 inch "Big Bores" VALKYRIE DRAGON PACKS by Ernie Schuster | Valkyrie Dragon Exhaust | http://groups.msn.com/valkyriedragonpacks/valkyriedragonpacks.msnw | 10 | Bodhi | 27228 | 07/08/08 |
| Description: Ernie knew I was in a rush to get my pipes done in preparation for a cross country trip I was to take with my Harley Riding friends. He was VERY helpful in getting me set up quickly. I was the first to have the 9" BIG BORES installed, and wow.... NOW my Masonic brothers fuss over who's gonna have to ride behind ME! lol. There are some pics of Ernie's work and my new Valk pipes here: http://gallery.mac.com/bodhi.fannin#100021 There are some other nice looking Valkyries in the photos too... Thanks Ernie, for giving my fat lady a new set of balls! Also, see our Masonic Riding Club at: http://www.freemasonsrc.com/ | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Heck yes! | ||||||
| heel toe shifter | Kuryakyn | ebay | 7 | Gear Jammer | 27807 | 07/05/08 |
| Description: Heel-Toe Kick shifter | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Contrary to some comments I received, the shifter works fine. Since I bought it used on the bay, I didn't expect perfect appearance, but it came looking better than expected. My only negative comment, is the distance between the front peg and rear peg is too short for big feet. This requires me to ride with my foot tucked down under the front peg as I did with the stock shift lever. But, after installing, test rode it and found it shifts solid, no jams or grinding gears (as I was told to expect). I paid about $110, and I'd buy it again based on my limited experience so far. I might change my mind if something unexpected happends, but so far,so good. | ||||||
| Dragon exhaust | Ernie Schuster | Bought directly from Ernie | 10 | BTB | 29044 | 07/03/08 |
| Description: Custom exhaust system | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Ernie is great to work with. Not only are the pipes awesome, but he has great information about everything Valkyrie. Ernie has great followup. Directions are clear and easy to follow. I bought the 18 inch and they sound great. Used to own a VTX 1300R and had Vance and Hines on the bike. I couldn't hear when I got off the bike. The Dragon Exhaust with 18 inch paks has the right amount of sound. I would highly recommend Ernie and Dragon Exhaust. | ||||||

| Dave's Classic Radiator Grill | Rattlebars | Rattlebars.com | 10 | Mark W. | 25772 | 06/05/08 |
| Description: Chrome horizonal bar radiator grill. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Very well worth the money. Deep and shiny chrome. Installs easily and comes with all the parts needed (including hex and philips head bolts). I used the hex allen head bolts and installed the stock grill cover behind the new chrome, and it worked like a champ. This will look great with LEDs shining on it! | ||||||
| Dragon Paks | Ernie Schuster | Ernie's shop | 10 | David Williams | 27933 | 04/24/08 |
| Description: Exhaust System | ||||||
| Satisfaction: As all the reviews state, this is a great product, and Ernie is a pleasure to deal with. I shot him an e-mail asking for some information on the exhaust, and he called me that day to give me my answers. I made arrangements while on the phone to meet Ernie and pick up the pipes. I purchased the 36" down slash stacks with the 12" and 18" packs. If you want to get noticed, the 12" packs are the way to go. You lay on the throttle, and trust me, they will hear you coming. The 18" packs give the bike a nice low growl. I think the 18's are the choice for long trips. Installation and changeout of the packs is a breeze. A couple days after I picked up the pipes, Ernie gave me a call to see how everything went on the install, and how I liked them. He is truly a great guy to deal with. | ||||||
| Dragon Pack | Ernie Shuster | na | 10 | Reynold Bert | 28931 | 04/21/08 |
| Description: 18 inch glass pack with straight stacks | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I Trusted all the other reviews and sent my pipes to Ernie for the 18" glass packs. I am in Canada, so did not get to hear his pipes before buying. I am very satisfied. I love the sound. They could be a little louder for myself, but they are plenty loud for my wife. The service and quality is as good as it gets. Ernie is a great guy to deal with. | ||||||
| Kuryakyn rear floorboards splined adapters | Kuryakyn | Moto-Tour, Inc | 9 | Valkman | 28845 | 04/15/08 |
| Description: The current '08 Kuryakyn catalog lists adapter part #8826 for the Valkyrie Interstate. This is not correct. I found that part #8825 fit my '99 Interstate, and #8826 did not. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Great, AFTER I got the correct part. Many thanks to Al at Moto-Tour, Inc for sticking with me until we figured out the problem. | ||||||

| DRAGON EXHAUST | Ernie Schuster | Ernie Schuster | 10 | msbf6 | 28764 | 03/13/08 |
| Description: Custom exhaust system | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Better Late Than Never - Just recently installed the Dragon Exhaust system from Ernie Schuster on my 99 Interstate. After reading many postings from other satisfied customers, I took the plunge along with a buddy with a 2000 Tourer, and we each ordered the complete system (including another set of headers) from Ernie, and had them shipped all the way up to Maple Ridge, British Columbia in Canada. This is without a doubt the best sounding and looking exhaust system for the Valk - the final addition to the otherwise perfect big cruiser/tourer. An awesome look and sound unique to the Valkyrie. Ernie's service was second to none - he delivered exactly what he promised, when he promised, and the product performed just as advertised - can't ask for more than that. Not only are my Ultra Classic riding partners now envious of the Fat Lady's performance and looks, but of her growl too!! msbf6 | ||||||
| Air horns | Howard's Horns | Howard's Horns | 1 | Shaman | 21131 | 03/04/08 |
| Description: Air horns for motorcycles | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Unacceptable product and service: of two horns ordered, one compressor did not work, the other was inferior to the Rivco compressor. Both drew 2.5-3 times the current stated on their web site. Finally, they promised a refund, but did not do so when the product was returned. Georgia BBB complaint filed and is pending; other complaints already listed there. Howard's Horns is NOT recommended by the Georgia BBB. I shoulda known--Howard caters to the Harley crowd; their horns work just as well :( | ||||||
| Valkyrie Dragon Exhaust | Ernie Schuster | Valkyriedragonexhaust@yahoo.com | 10 | Bruce Hines | 28713 | 03/01/08 |
| Description: Dragon glass pak exhaust built by Ernie Schuster | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Received my Dragon Exhaust from Ernie today. It only took about 1.5 hours to have it all back together and on the road. This is a great system and Ernie is a pleasure to work with. My Valkyrie finally sounds like it has some horsepower and spunk. Ernie turned the pipes around very quickly and had them back in about a week to 10 days. I was amazed! The sound at idle is maybe twice as loud as before with the stock pipes. The sound under acceleration is much louder and is 3 to 4 times as loud with a very nice roar. I see the neighbors are now looking as I pass by. I got the 18-inch paks with 36-inch cannons (down slash) at Ernie's recommendation since I live on a golf course. The 9-inch paks must have an amazingly loud sound quality. The system is great and I am very satisfied. The wife may need to wear ear plugs when on the back now for longer trips. Also, Ernie is a very good communicator and follows up with e-mail and phone calls to ensure the customer is satisfied. This is a must have for the Valk. Price was very reasonable. | ||||||

| Dragon Packs | Ernie Schuster | na | 10 | Momz | 18693 | 01/23/08 |
| Description: Glass Pack mod to stock exhaust system. I had Ernie install 24" glasspacks rather than the 18" he recommends for an I/S. I will say that these are the sweetest sounding pipes you will ever hear. And Ernie is a pleasure to work with. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Absolutley blown away. I get compliments from HD to Ducati riders. | ||||||

| Cobra 6 into 6 exhaust | Cobra | From another member/VRCC classifieds | 10 | Dumpster | 24605 | 12/27/07 |
| Description: The pipes that every Valkyrie ought to have. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I love the mayhem these put out without the baffles! Just one more thing that puts all the local Harleys to shame! The looks are unbelievable! At $390 total I'm completely satisfied! There should be several used still out there. I've had stock pipes, stock pipes drilled out, & with rear baffles removed, and glasspacks. These are by far the best in my opinion. They say it loses hp but I sure can't tell nor would I really care if they did, unlike what my thoughts were before I took the plunge. In fact my bike shows on a consistant level that it now runs 7mph faster top speed then before. Neither one of my Interstates have ever read 130mph until this mechanical change. Sounds like the badest bike around, which it is in my home town of 20,000, and it's a daily rider. I can hear my tunes just fine until I'm running down the interstate but I know them enough to catch bits & pieces & know how they go anyway. | ||||||
| Cobra driveshaft cover | Cobra | Republiccycle.com | 8 | Dumpster | 24605 | 12/27/07 |
| Description: A $50 piece of chrome that covers 1/2 the driveshaft & held on with 2 wide zipties. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Installed it from underneath, rolling it around. Really tight fit getting it underneath the bolts & flush with the inside of the shaft so as you can't tell it doesn't wrap around. Bought 9/16" chrome caps to cover the exposed nuts. I have the Hopnel bags that fit on my saddlebag rails & when they're on the driveshaft isn't noticable. Thing is, when the wife's with me I take those off $ that area's exposed. Could have easily done without but I'm down to the last few chrome items made for this bike & I got the itch around Christmas. I would recommend the Rivco cover since it cost less. | ||||||
| Carolina Thunder Exhaust System | Carolina Bike & Trike (TruckRacer) | www.carolinabikeandtrike.com (Matt Teeples) | 10 | NiteRiderF6 | 23234 | 12/16/07 |
| Description: Valkyrie pipes designed and performance built for the F6 Cruiser of the Deacde Honda Valkyrie. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: This is the ultimate exhaust system for the Valkyrie. I have never seen my old Valkyrie tune out this well nor run any better than it does right now. The "well tuned" performance sound is an added bonus for the Valkyrie rider that is interested in optimum tuning and the sound that a well tuned F6 engine emits. To sum up... I love the pipes and would high recommend them to anybody. Thanks! Doug | ||||||
| Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, Coolant Temp, Volt, Gauge | Motosen | Direct from supplier | 7 | Daddy Dave | 27522 | 12/09/07 |
| Description: Complete Gauge set , less Clock. Wire Harness, Sending Units, Asorted brackets. Classic style W/orange lamp. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I recieved the Gauge package, and proceeded to install on my 2000 Tourer. I took the time to review the instructions provided. I would like to mention they do look good, But I was a bit dissapointed to find that the housings were made of Plastic, and the lens were made of plastic as well. the directions were a little difficult to understand, but I was able to figure out after a few minutes. Wire harnes was superb and they did not skimp here. Cut to length wires were just right. Gauges have the plastic housing and the lens cover ring is held on by a ruberized cement. the lenses are a plastic material that is thin, I had hoped for glass. I an not sure if they will yellow over time. I think they may be able to be replaced with glass but it would have to be thin. I did notice there is a bit of a color difference in the face of one of the gauges compared to the others. Once I had everything hooked up. looked OK, but two of the gauges were partially lit. with a tap or two, the started to work properly. Overall summary. I was pleased with the sending units provided, and the wiring. The looks and idea are great. I was a bit dissapointed with the overall cost of the product when you consider the plastic housings and lenses. The Distributor in Canada was Very nice and the stay right on top of the shippers to make sure you get your package. A big Plus here for that! | ||||||

| Satisfaction: Excellent product. Shifter side is good quality chrome and brake side is black but hidden due to chrome brake cylinder cover. Installation fairly simple and took about 1 hour total. Brake side took the longest but not hard to figure out. Directions fairly clear but print blurry and photos not large enough. Drawings would be clearer and easier to understand. Best part is they work great. They lower about 1 inch and you can move your floorboards or OEM pegs forward about 3 inches. Doesn't sound like much but what a difference it makes on your riding position which is much better on my back and leg cramps after hours of riding. I am 6'2" with a 30 inch inseam and have Cobra floorboards. Now instead of my feet being elevated and somewhat directly under me I feel like I am sitting in a comfortable chair. Really can't say enough about this small but critical change for anyone with long legs. With floorboards in requires you to bend your kickstand peg down but it bends easily to clear the boards when the kickstand is down. I was nervous about that but I put a large wrench over it and leveraged it to bend it down instead of using a rubber mallet as the directions suggest. A pipe would probably work the best but I didn't have one. Ground clearance isn't too negatively affected either. Have tested it in some pretty good leans but have yet to drag the ground though I am sure I have probably gotten close. Stop being uncomfortable and order this product. Company pretty straight forward and product was received within 5 days. | ||||||
| Ultimate Lowboy Seat for Valkyrie | Ultimate | http://www.ultimateseats.ca/ | 10 | hubast | 27922 | 09/26/07 |
| Description: The Ultimate Lowrider mark 2 is a full 17" wide and will sit you 1" lower and in the same position to the handle bars as the stock bench if you're under 200 lbs. If your leg inseam measures 28" or more you will have both feet planted flat on the ground. We have designed our seat with a 6½" built in back support and an increased nose angle so you sit back into the seat and it prevents you sliding forward under braking. Our seats are a specially developed memory foam cushion. You won't believe how good this is. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I knew I really needed a good seat when my lower back started to fatigue on long trip and quite frankly my ass hurt...so I finally took the plunge into a remarkable seat made by Ultimate. Not only did I get a much better and longer ride with no fatigue, but it changed the way my Valk feels to me because of the lower center of gravity... my bike is more responsive, and handles ALOT better with this seat installed.... and my ass is happy too. By far the best improvement ever on the Valk. I just dont see how I rode that long without one. You shouldnt be without it! | ||||||

| add-on gauges | motosens | motosens | 9 | pooh | 12330 | 09/21/07 |
| Description: classic fuel gauge and clock | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I ordered and installed the Motosens "classic" fuel gauge and clock on my 98 STD. The quality of the gauges is superb. They really match the look of the factory gauges. I also bought the chrome clamps used to mount the gauges to the handlebars. The clamps look great but the supplied hex screws don't match the holes in the gauges. I had to run to the hardware store for $1.50 worth of screws and rubber washers. The clamps are Formotion parts so they probably only fit their gauges. For $200, I would expect Motosens to supply the right hardware. The gauges are first-rate though. | ||||||
| Cobra Classic Floorboards BLV61640 | Cobra | Ebay $240.00 | 8 | Swubba | 19961 | 09/17/07 |
| Description: Floorboards for Valkyrie to replace OEM pegs | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Really saves the bottoms of your feet on long hauls. Only issue is they elevate the riding position of your feet making shifting and overall position something to get use to. They are wider too which means you need to spread a bit further at a stop to put your feet down. Uncomfortable at first but getting use to it. Directions state to move shifter up 2 notches but not enough to get toe of boot under for easy shifting so I went 3 notches. Works on upshift but now downshift is manageable but awkward. Thinking of buying driver peg relocator kit by Rattlebars which will drop them an inch which would be perfect and I could go back to the suggested 2 tooth adjustment and all should work well. Rattlebars also makes a heel shifter for upshifts to work with it but will try the relocation mounts first. Overall, still better than having sore balls of my feet after long rides. Since longer, gives different positions for my legs too. Still worth the money. Too bad it couldn't be an all in one fix. I should mention though that I am 6'2" with a 30" inseam. Us big guys have to do what we can to find maximum comfort. | ||||||
| BlueAnt HS830 Bluetooth Motorcycle Intercom | Blue Ant | Ebay $230.00 for the pair | 9 | Swubba | 19961 | 09/17/07 |
| Description: Wireless solution for driver to passenger or bike to bike communicator. Also works as driver to cell phone for those that have a cell with bluetooth with voice activated dialing. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Talk over your cell phone or talk to your passenger, even talk to another bike that also has an Interphone within 490 feet (150 metres). Wireless, water-resistant, windproof and removable and rechargeable BlueAnt Interphone Handsfree & Intercom can be used at up to 80mph and is compatible with all Bluetooth Cell Phones. Works well but suggest wind sheild on open face helmet to help cut down on excessive wind noise. Excellent solution for those that don't want all the wires like me. Opens up a whole new world for those that currently do not talk to their passenger as so much of the scenery can now be shared. Directly mounts to helmet full or open face. Easy to install. Volume is ample. Continuous talk time is about 4-5 hours and standby is up to 700 hours. Great product. | ||||||

| Satisfaction: Great pegs. The directions were terrible. I think these were designed for the Gold Wing, and the Valk was an afterthought. After some tinkering, I got them on and they work great. My calfs don't touch the valve covers at all. The change in riding position keeps me riding much longer. | ||||||

| Sierra Valkyrie Interstate CD Kit | Sierra Electronics (800-338-6938) | Sierra Electronics | 9 | Paladin | 19178 | 06/21/07 |
| Description: 6 cd changer engineered and tailored for Interstate right saddlebag installation complete with sheathed protected driver terminal and wireless remote control. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: This product is wonderful! You cannot believe how much I enjoy hours of music without a commercial and without paying for "airwave usage". The installation instructions were clear but what you have to go through to get it installed is a bit combersome. Setting up the volume to match current radio volume is extremely easy. This product would be perfect except for two (livable) issues: 1. The cd changer periodically skips. Current read-ahead technology should prevent mishaps (but might be my suspension?!). 2. The cd changer ER2 faults on CDRs at power-up. Manufacturers should expect customers to use CDR copies. | ||||||
| Front Brake Pads - DP Brakes "HH" Rated | DP Brakes | Local Honda Dealer | 7 | Gryphon Rider | 12631 | 06/21/07 |
| Description: Front brake pads for Honda Valkyrie. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: My observations of DP Brakes front pads vs. OEM Honda pads: 1. Braking power under most conditions is equal or slightly better. 2. When brakes are wet and cold, i.e. first mile or so of riding, braking power is significantly diminished and thus requires a hard squeeze to get them to work. 3. Pad thickness seems to expand and contract as they heat and cool. When I first got on the bike after it had sat for a while, I had to squeeze the brake lever a couple of times to have the lever feel as firm as normal. I had assumed that I had gotten some air in my brake lines when changing the fluid, until I changed back to OEM pads withoud touching the fluid, and the problem disappeared. 4. Pad wear approximately equal or slightly better. 5. Cost slightly less. 6. Brake noise slightly more, but not annoyingly so. Overall impression: Decent pads to buy if your dealer can't bring in OEM pads in time for you. | ||||||
| Rivco Center Stand | Rivco | www.hondadirectlineusa.com | 8 | vanagon40 | 25851 | 06/20/07 |
| Description: Center Stand--$310 | ||||||
| Satisfaction: I love the center stand. Excellent product. Easy to install. I recommend to install the spring first and then use a wire tie (or similar) to hold the stand in the "up" (riding, not parked) position. I would have given a "10" rating but I had problems with the bumper stop bending and the stand hitting my exhaust. I replaced the thin metal bumper stop with a piece of angle iron and now have no problem. It is my understanding that Rivco is discontinuing the Valkyrie line of parts. I recommend buying a center stand before they are all gone. (As an aside, I find it extremely easy to park the bike on the center stand and do not use the grab rail. I am giving up my grab rails to buy highway pegs.) | ||||||

| Airvent seat pad | windtech | Airvent website | 10 | ridgeman06 | 2466 | 06/15/07 |
| Description: I had one of these on my 1800 Wing that I sold last year. I just bought one for my 98 tourer with the stock 2000+ seat. This is a well made breathable cushion that attaches to the seat with a shock chord that you lay under the seat first, then hook it onto the pad which pulls it downward. Very comfortable and will raise you up 1/2-3/4 inch also. Excellent quality. Two day shipping was nice too. | ||||||

| Dragon Exhaust | Ernie Schuster | Dragon Exhaust | 10 | Deal Maker | 25193 | 05/28/07 |
| Description: I also ordered both the 18" and 9" because I was unsure of the sound loudness and tone. The 18" are nice if you like a mellow note. They are not loud at idle and to me sound like a Valk with the baffles drilled out. The 9" are perfect for me and my wife and we ride two up. They have a deep tone and nice chop kind of sounds like you have a cam installed! Not very loud at all. It reminds me more of a throaty street-bike loudness that straight pipe loud. These are more like Rinehart loud than Vance & Hines loud. I am more than pleased with both and may order the 12" just for parade use:) Great investment and no regrets! | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Highly satisfied! | ||||||

| Memphis Shades Windshield | Memphis Shades | VRCC Classifieds | 10 | vanagon40 | 25851 | 05/18/07 |
| Description: Aftermarket windshield--$125.00 | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Until last year, I had not ridden a bike since about 1986, and that one was a Honda 360. Bought my 2001 Standard last summer and could barely see at speeds over 30 MPH–wind whipping around my bifocals. I’m too cheap to pay for prescription goggles, so I got a face shield for my 3/4 helmet. But I still found the wind to be deafening and beat me to death on the interstate. Got the Memphis Shades and I could not be happier. Much quieter at high speeds and the wind no longer beats on me. Got rid of the face shield and no more watery eyes. Easy to install (less than 2 hours for the initial installation). On and off in minutes (although I have not had it off since I got it). Looks good on the bike. I would note that the windshield looks identical to the stock Harley windshield on a 2007 Road King (the bike my boss just purchased). A special thanks to Bob from Arlington, Texas (a VRCC member). A bargain price (VRCC classifieds) and Bob refused my repeated offers to pay for shipping. My check and Bob’s windshield passed in the mail. Nice to know there is still a place in this world for mutual trust. | ||||||

| Satisfaction: This product is outstanding in every way and is a great safety accessory. Jerry (the company owner) exceeded my customer service expectation and the installation process in my stock Valk Interstate seat was very simple using a Dremel tool with small cutter wheel. I am extremely satisfied with this safety accessory and will go so far as to say that for the sake of rider and passenger safety...all Valkyrie owners should install a Blinker Buddy on their bike. | ||||||

I ride with several HD owners in my local riding club and most of them are louder than the Valk.... but don't sound as good as the Valk with these pipes! Easy to install. I also put on the Cobra Carb kit. Very easy to install as well... took about 30 minutes. Mileage seems unchanged as does horse-power. | ||||||
| center stand | Rivco | HondaDirect | 7 | ValkRascal | 26998 | 04/09/07 |

| Satisfaction: Easy to install. I put the spring on before installing and used zip-tie to hold the stand open (per directions) and had no trouble. But be warned, if you have Cobra 6 into 6 pipes you will need to modify the pipes slightly for the stand to fit properly. Instructions for this were included with the stand. As for functionality, I couldn't be happier. Makes working on the Valk a walk in the park! | ||||||
| Rear shocks | Progressive | Viking Motorcycle (ridevmc.com) | 10 | Mark W. | 25772 | 04/03/07 |
| Description: Progressive 440-4213 Chrome shocks | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Adjustable pre-load by turning the upper part of th e shock. IAS (inertia active system) variable rate damping based on the shock speed actuates through the use spring mount balls that push closer to the oil orifice as the shock speed increases. IAS licensed from Edelbrock. These seem to give a much tighter ride than the stock springs. Phone support Very helpful in choosing the correct shock for my weight, passenger and accessory weight and riding style. Thorough description of the available shocks and features was given over the phone. I used the stock length shock, as shorter shocks mean a higher spring rate and a stiffer ride. Quality is very good. A bit sticky when first trying to adjust the pre-load. | ||||||

| LED light module | NA | Superbrightleds.com | 10 | Mark W. | 25772 | 04/03/07 |
| Description: 4 bulb LED light module | ||||||
| Satisfaction: 4 very bright LEDs in a plastic module with about 4' of provided wiring. Consistent in color over many modules. Easy to mount with double sided tape, or mounting holes in the module. Low amperage makes it possible to use them by tapping into existing lighting wires without worry of over-drawing circuits and blowing fuses. I've installed in hard bags and the trunk of my car - all work very well. | ||||||

| Satisfaction: I gave this an "9" because the provided wiring that is provided with the lights should be long enough to reach into the headlight housing without having to make a connection. The aluminum, lights and chrome are all great. The adjustable position of the light bar allows use of the Hondaline windshield without modification. | ||||||
| Reservoir switch | Kuryakyn | Viking Motorcycle | 10 | Mark W. | 25772 | 04/03/07 |
| Description: Three switch reservoir cover. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Love it. Nice chrome piece. The bottom plate of the switch replaces the OEM reservoir cover (either clutch or brake side). This makes it possible to remove the switch housing without removing the reservoir cover. There is just enough black sheath to cover the wiring that runs along the handlebar. If one tried hard enough, it might be possible to run the wire in the stock looms. I simply zip tied the sheath along the existing wiring. The LED lights in the rocker switches are just barely visible in daylight, and not too bright at night. The only drawback is that you have to take your hand off the bars and reach for the switches, but that is not Kuryakyn's fault. | ||||||

| Rivco Center Stand | RIVCO | Honda directline | 10 | Iggy | 26581 | 02/18/07 |
| Description: Great product but a pain in the neck to install. I did not jack up the bike, just had a buddy hold it upright. I first installed it and then tried to attach the spring. Big mistake... Installing it before hooking up the spring is no problem, however hooking up the spring afterward is virtually impossible. I had to take it off again attach the spring and then reinstall it. The problem with the spring on is that it applies torsion on the end which bolts onto the existing sidestand bracket bolt. In order to compensate I jammed a wrench between the two spring attachments to hold the spring apart. I also used a car jack to apply pressure on the bottom of the centerstand bracket to line up the bolt with the attachment point. | ||||||
| Satisfaction: Very useful product for maintenance and for plugging a tire. I do think the stand points could have been a little wider to increase stability. I had a ST1300 and felt it was more stable on its centerstand | ||||||
