A bike builder (Walz) took the F6B platform and made it into a cruiser - I can't imagine this was an easy task considering all the fabrication work. The end result is something closely resembling a Triumph Rocket III in my opinion. It doesn't look too bad but I like the fairing and the the factory goodies on my F6B. Thoughts?

It looks really bad-azz. I really like it, especially the black intake, headers, and pipes.
Notice that only the right side is shown. I don't think the left side would look nearly as good. With the mono shock and final drive on the right, the left rear would look void and empty.
Mirrors? Good luck seeing behind you. Turn signals? In the bar ends. Speedo and gauges? Who needs 'em.
That being said, I'd still love to cruise around town on it.
Highway? Not so much.
That is NOT a former F6B
That looks like a modified Valkyrie 1500
Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.
That is a Valk not a redone F6B. Frame is Valk. Tank looks like it came off a avatar. Engine is a 1500.
Ditto to the above posts identifying that as a 1520 cc Valkyrie. Try F6C custom
You are correct, tis a Gl1500 based unit. Tell by carbs, radiator, and cam belt cover at front of head.Originally Posted by Phantom

If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.
Too lazy to Google: Did the 1500 have the monoshock rear like the current models?You are correct, tis a Gl1500 based unit. Tell by carbs, radiator, and cam belt cover at front of head.
Two shocks, left side coil over and air shock on the right side. Never understood why only one side was air.
Yep...Valk... Someone would need a wuppin to do that to a F6

JMHO, that's what the new Valk should have looked like!
