I really love this bike, just no time to ride and my hands are not what they used to be for such a powerful motor and clutch. If you have never ridden a Valkyrie or Goldwing. Be prepared to be surprised. It sounds like a turbine and pulls like a freight train. I've had import V-Twins up to 1900cc and this bike will blow them away.If a dealership details this bike it would be hard to tell the difference from a showroom floor twin.
Here is a Youtube video trying to show tank dents. For lack of a better word. This happened when it was transported when I first got it. The handle bars were pulled down so tight by the straps, the front forks were mostly compressed, this bike had no room to move when the suspension of the tailor took a bump. I had to loosen the handlebar bolts with borrowed tools, raise the bars back up and tighten to spec. This was over 5 years ago. I had forgotten about it until putting the bike up for sale. Most inquiries have been about the "tank damage" Now after trying to capture this on my phone camera or a go pro. They have all but disappeared. Were they magic Non paint damaging fuel tank dents? I don't think so. It IS possible for the tank to expand and contract in the Florida sun to help the dents smooth out. They are nearly impossible to see. With my equipment and skill they are impossible to detect on camera images or video. I can barely find them with my fingers lightly searching for them, I can imagine this bike could be sold without disclosing` this very small issue on a lot or by a seller with different moral values than I.

actual mileage is 5,881
You can see a hard wired Phone holder and charger, that is what you see on the handlebars above the throttle. It's a bit dusty but clean.

The tank has 2 small "areas" where the handle bars were pulled down by a knucklehead tightening up the straps.
I will include everything you see in the images.
I bought this bike from the original owner. A Very nice older fella. His wife did not like the back seat, she was accustomed to a Full Dress Harley. The guy even spent a small fortune on a very nice aftermarket seat. Still he traded it with less than 2000 miles for a new Harley.
I love this bike. I Traded a 2 year old Yamaha Raider 1900. This Honda would destroy that bike in any contest. I change the oil way more often than required by Honda.
I had a heel toe shifter installed. No more marks on my shoe.
I have only ridden this bike to Daytona once. I trailered it up North for a ride and that is about the sum of this bikes life. It sits quietly in my garage with a cover. It gets started every month or so just to make sure all is well. The factory battery stil lspins the motor over effortlessly, unlike any V-Twin including the Yamaha 1900 and the Kawasaki Vulcan 1800.
I have said many time I am never selling this one. "Never say never" Life happens. I was hoping to trade it for a new Gold Wing with Automatic trans and ABS. but sadly the bike market is crazy right now as you know if you are reading this.
