Usually you can tell how many of a bike are made by the last digits of the VIN.
You can check your VIN here: http://www.cyclepedia.com/manuals/CPP-VIN/
In my case: JH2SC6809EK000976
JH2 = Manufactured by Honda, manufactured in Japan (http://www.vsource.org/VFR-RVF_files/BVINSystem.htm)
SC680 = GL1800 variant? (https://www.motorcyclespareparts.eu/honda-parts/honda-model-prefix.aspx)
9 = Check digit (http://www.vsource.org/VFR-RVF_files/BVINcalc.htm)
E = 2014 (http://www.vsource.org/VFR-RVF_files/BVINSystem.htm)
K = Kumamoto factory (http://world.honda.com/environment/face/2013/case31/episode/episode01.html)
000976 = Sequential "serial" number
So, there are at least 976 new Valkyries in existence.
(PS - Yes, for fun I did check to see if my check digit in the 9th place was correct!)
