Sweet! Good to know, this will be a good investment for some owners.
Nope I bought it without knowing it would fit! Although I was about 99 percent sure it would.I think it depends a bit on where you plan to go riding, but it never hurts to have an extra bit of protection in the bike. Did you have that panel left over from a bike you own, or did you buy it specifically for the F6C? Glad to hear its easy to install. If I start to get worried about rogue rocks flying up, then I'll definitely invest in one.
Am I the only one who can't see the attached picture of the belly pan?
No, but a center stand sure helps: http://www.f6cforum.com/forum/13-ho...ntenance/5649-weird-front-tire.html#post21569Has anyone tried putting the Valkyrie up on a jack stand?
Do we need to have the belly pan to do that?
thank you for sharing your post, good information. This might save someone.I consider the belly pan a must have if you do serious miles on any of the Goldwing bikes. The new Valkyrie is no different, and we are in luck the belly pans line up and fit perfectly on our bike.
For those who aren't aware, the coolant reservoir is exposed to the road on the bottom of the bike, along with the engine and oil filter. A lot of Goldwing riders have reported rocks damaging, and in some cases puncturing the oil filter and the coolant reservoir. Either will leave you stranded.
Pictured is the Show Crome brand black belly pan. Takes about 10 minutes to install.
