New Ride

**wanderer** · 06-07-2014, 01:59 PM

This is my new (to me) ride. It's a 1999 Honda Valkyrie with 10400 miles on it.

Congratulations Gene! Riding already?

**GIBBY** · 06-07-2014, 02:34 PM

Congratulations Gene, I almost bought the identical bike about 4 years ago.

**Top Cat** · 06-07-2014, 03:25 PM

I always liked the Valkyrie.
Congrats Gene.
How you healing?

usranger74 · 06-07-2014, 04:22 PM

Nice looking bike. If they still made that I would buy one!!

Congratulations, Gene. Hope you're healing up well.

Can't grip a throttle yet. I start physical therapy on my hand and wrist Monday. I will have a walking boot on my ankle for the next 4 weeks too.

Congrats Gene. Glad to hear you're on the mend.

That bike doesn't know what it's in for not even broken in yet. Good luck and happy riding.

You lucky dog......the nicest bike I've ever ridden is a Valkyrie. The color is great also.

petenomad · 06-07-2014, 10:11 PM

Awesome.

Congrats Gene and glad to hear that you're healing well. Sounds like you are preparing yourself for some more riding.
