    Dark side on Valkyrie

    Put a CT on my 97 Valk. Glad I did. I forgot what PITA changing the rear tire on the Valk is. Should be awhile before I need to do it again!

    Would have preferred a run flat but couldn't find one in that size that I liked

    I also ran CT on my 99 Interstate. 23K on that one before I collected a screw in it. I liked it a lot.
    Just sold it and bought a 2013 F6B. Sure wish the B had a lot more of that motor showing.

    I kept my B! It's fun to ride both. Different bikes for sure. They both have a CT though.

    I have two rims for the B. I do switch back and forth once in a while. I live in Florida so I do a lot of flat road riding. I do love late afternoon, early evening cruises along the Ocean or Gulf. They are really nice in December & Jan!!!

    I live in north eastern Ohio. When Im in Jacksonville I enjoy the ride down the coast to Daytona. Some cool little bars along the way.
    Will be doing it again in the early spring.

    I'm in Daytona a lot, have a small Condo near the beach. Let me know if you are riding down A1A. I ride up to St Augustine often. We could meet up.
