Honda Valkyrie description

1998 HONDA VALKYRIE. 1500 CC FLAT 6 MOTOR. MOTOR HAS A BLOWER ON IT WHICH INCLUDES A ONE PIECE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND ONE LARGE HARLEY DAVIDSON CV CARB. IT HAS BEEN REDONE WITH FORGED 8.2 TO 1 PISTONS FOR THE BLOWER. THE HEADS HAVE STRONGER AFTERMARKET SPRINGS AND HAVE BEEN PORTED ON A 5 AXIS CNC MACHINE. THE REAR SWINGARM HAS BEEN EXTENED 6.5 INCHES AND WAS MACHINED FROM BILLET 6061 T6 ALUMINUM. THE EXTENED DRIVESHAFT WAS MADE FROM 4350 CHROME-MOLY STEEL. A SHAFT DRIVEN MOTORCYCLE THAT HAS HAD THE SWINGARM EXTENED IS VERY RARE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE. THE SHOCK BRACKETS AND LICENSE PLATE FRAME ARE ALSO BILLET ALUMINUM PARTS, ALONG WITH OTHER MISC. PIECES ON THE BIKE. THE REAR RIM HAS BEEN WIDENED AND RAISED FROM 16 X 5 TO 18 X 8.5 WITH A 240/40/VR18 METZELER TIRE. THE ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING OF THIS SWINGARM/RIM/TIRE ASSEMBLY ALONE EASILY VALIDATES CURRENT ASKING PRICE.
THE BIKE HAS 21665 MILES ON IT WITH LESS THAN 10000 MILES ON THE REBUILD AND THE BLOWER. THE MOTOR IS LIKE NEW, JUST BROKE IN. IT HAS PROGRESSIVE SUSPENSION SHOCKS AND THE IGNITION MODULE IS A -DYNA 3000 DIGITAL PERFORMANCE IGNITION-. THE EXHAUST IS CUSTOM WITH A SMALL GLASSPACK ON EACH SIDE.
