Well you must be blind sided by the sheer beauty of this beast as that is an actual tasmanian devil from tansmania that I got from an article on the internet about them becoming exinct slowly in tansmania because of too many humans there.  They are already pretty much  extinct in Australia due to too many people.  Sad news as they are cute but very vicious little buggers, in the family with badgers and wolfernines.  So again this is not your mothers friendly little dog next door indeed as it would eat old triumph and any other little dog in seconds and cats even faster.  Now thats priceless.

They are mean little buggers.  Get agitated pretty easily, too.

I got a jack adapter from "the original" guy...  He even makes one that fits the Rivco Center stand.  It works very well...

That link is dead but is this; http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VALKYRIE-LIFT-JACK-ADAPTER-STURDIEST-STAYS-BIKE-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem27b19e5447QQitemZ170483668039QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories the one? And if so, does it affect cornering clearance at all? Thanks.

No, it will NOT affect cornering.  Other parts hit first.  I have one on my 97, and had one on my 01 IS.  Had to remove from the IS to mount sidecar brackets under there.

So Taz do you need a buddy to sit on the front of your Valkyrie or is that a H.D. thing?      javascript:void(0);

The adapter is supposed to be removed before riding.

I see this one says it stays on...... I'd hate to scrape it on some of the roads I ride.

These bolt on the brackets for the sidestand. Impossible to hit the ground.  Stays on all the time.  Have one on my 97, works great.

Valker, the bracket is about as wide as the frame and hangs down about level with the bottom of the engine.   One would scrape a lot of other parts before it could touch the ground.  I find my works pretty well, have replaced the two tires on front and back, plus replaced the U-Joint.  So I do have some experience with the bracket.
