Well did a long 700 miles yesterday. Went from Atlanta to Chattanooga for a backrest and rack that Southern Powersports had in stock. Made for a long day, got home at 6am so sleep was needed after that haul. I did pick up a Gel Pad from one of the truck stops that made the intolerable stock seat actually comfy for 700 miles. Still gonna order a Corbin though.
Happy to say the Valkyrie is pretty awesome in the twisties, it's like riding a sport bike, just absolutely flies through the corners and power everywhere and with the addition of a windscreen (coming soon) it's a pretty awesome touring bike too. I now have the passenger backrest and rack so my tour bag will fit now, makes it great for quick weekend getaways. I have the Wing and F6B for anything longer lol.
Got caught in some nasty weather south of Atlanta and one really bad wreck. Ended up an RV park drying my clothes and waiting out the rain, that was fun.
Here are some pics from the trip:
Before the backrest was installed on Monday


Yup this doesn't suck

But this did, soaked!
