How many Old Valkyrie riders brought a F6B?

I notice a few names from the Valkyrie broad on this site.
To me this is a great replacement for the Valkyrie.
Better than the new Valkyrie.
I sold one Valk and traded in my 07 St1300 for a F6B.
What a great bike.

I had a 1998 Valkyrie in the beautiful dark blue and cream color. In between I've had three Ultra Classic Electraglides, a Road King, a Road King Custom, a Yamaha Royal Star Venture, a BMW R1200CLC, and a 2002 GL1800.

My favorite two bikes from all these ... First Place, my new F6B. Second place goes to that beautiful Valkyrie!

I'm guilty. I bought my '98 Valk new in July of '98. I traded it (along with my V-Strom) for the F6B. Strangely though, I miss the V-Strom more than the Valk.

Rode a 99 Black Valk Tourer for 6+ years and traded for a 1800 VTXF..Had several bikes since then and all were nice bikes, but none of them compare to my F6B...Missed the power and smoothness so I returned to the flat six.....Ride safe.....

I had a '97 Valkyrie Tourer, green & cream colored. It was a great bike....regretted it the minute I sold it and bought a H-D Ultra Classic. I'm back to stay now on the F6B.

I lose track of years but I bought a Valk the first year they came out. It was the black/yellow "bumblebee" model. Kept it for 3-4 years which is longer than I have kept most bikes. Went to a BMW K12LT after that...big mistake

The F6B sits in my garage next to my 2000 Valk Interstate and my still favorite ride my 1978 GL1000. After putting 105k miles on the Valk I started wanting something new. So the Valk will have the Car tire pulled off on and a few extras taken off and then be put up for sale.
