That Harley playing with you sounded like a lawnmower mower compared to the Valkyrie. The Valkyrie sounds remarkably similar to an air cooled N/A 911 which means it sounds freaking amazing.
ua-cam.com/video/hhJvZ3I3Fq0/v-deo.html Check out this Valkyrie engine, shoehorned into the frame of a GL1000, and feed it through open carburettas from a Porche 911 then :-)
Congratulations on the new bike! You'll love it! If the pipes come with the baffles installed, leave them in and see how you like it. Good for city riding and when you open her up, she sounds amazing over 4000rpm. Then take the baffles out and hear the difference ;-)
Thanks, bro! Since you commented I was watching videos about the Crossplane R1, learnt a lot 👍🏻 I would put the Valkyrie on 1st place. I’m opinionated though 😂
I have owned 3 Valkyrie's and have run everything from 6 into 6, Two Brothers Racing BIG straight pipes, and stock... and will never tire of the sound of my Valkyrie, even with the current stock exhaust. Nice demo :)
@@facilitiesmaintenancebyarne got it! Just curious as I just picked up my own purple and white 97 Valk today, 40k miles for $3860. Going to ride her for the first time tommorow. Am ecstatic. Did the carb rebuild with my brother practically all day today
That's the thing, it never gets old ;-) I love my long distance rides and did a few Iron Butt rides as well, 24hrs of riding. Every time I start the bike, give her some throttle, it makes me smile ;-)
Better on the interstate than any other bike I've ridden besides the Goldwings I've owned. If you ride a bike for long enough to get into the reserve every time, you figure out what's a serious highway bike and what's not
A "pain in the ass" in what sense? Maintenance? Just ride the bike regularly and everything will be fine. There's a device out there called "DigiSync" to synchronize the carbs. Get a Valkyrie, you will love it! Regular maintenance on this bike can be done by yourself, you just have to keep riding it and enjoying it ;-)
@@vancityvalkyrie I don't know...My CM450 Is a Wild fox haha but I was curious what your thoughts are on this bike for it's handling? It's a bike I've been genuinely interested in since I discovered it exists.
@@shadowspect09 I’ve been riding a Valkyrie for 21 years now. Started out on a Suzuki VX800 in ‘98, since 2000 I’m on a Valkyrie. Riding all over Europe and since 2018 my bike is in Canada. I loved the bike from day 1!!! Now I ride it double dark and it’s even better! They are cheap, you can service everything by yourself, and they never let you stranded on the road. One alternator gave up on me, that’s it. You will get used to the bike’s abilities pretty quick and I would say, from my experience, all your riding buddies will be impressed what this bike can do 👍🏻
I got the ECT mod on the bike as well. The power loss is very minor I'd say. The concert you get is just awesome! Hoping to be able to put the bike on the dyno with original pipes and also with Cobras with and without baffles... one day...
There is no power loss with the cobras. They flow air no differently than stock. The myth that the lack of back pressure makes it lose 10 hp is false. If you get rid of back pressure you don’t lose power, you gain it.
Yes got thems pipes on my Valk 6 into 6, cobra rule,if people are walking past when I am about to start her up I always warn them it's going to be loud,and they still jump out their skins.
@@mtguz23 I just didn't see any improvement and it felt like the bike wasn't running 100%. Switched back to stock needles and everything felt fine again.
@@vancityvalkyrie Thanks for the response - I was debating whether to get the jet kit along with the cobra pipes - maybe I'll just try the pipes first and leave the carbs alone, and if it runs fine leave it be. Sometimes less work is better anyway (pretty much always I think).
@@mtguz23 Ask 3 other people and you will probably get 3 different opinions on this topic. I put the pipes on, tried both sets of needles and went back to stock. I still have to put the bike on a dyno to see how much power I lost due to the pipes and no baffles. I don't feel a difference to the stock pipes. She takes me to where I wanna go, starts up nice every time and runs smooth. No need to fix anything that ain't broken. Cobras with baffles have an amazing sound above 4k rpm. Without the baffles it's just... so much different. I uploaded a video when I started her for the first the time after taking the baffles out. Couldn't stop smiling, hehe ;-)
Don't worry, it sounds pretty much the same in all gears. Why in the world would you want to rend what looks like a peaceful natural atmosphere? The poor wildlife.

You’re not the first one saying she sounds like an older 911, love it! I will not tell my buddy about the lawnmower comparison though 😝

Love the precise and fast shifting really makes that bike tone stand out while riding with those sick pipes!!
Thanks, bro!
I’m a Harley guy through and through, but damn it, the Valkyries sound so damn good
Haha, thanks!!!
unbelievable. gives anyone with testes goosebumps I'd wager.
The sound is mint
That's what I like to hear ;-) This was so much fun!
Amazing sound!
A symphony of pistons.
This vid never gets old….. keep up the good work…
i love how fast you guys drive these bikes
usually ppl only cruise with them
Cruising and enjoying the scenery is nice. Sometimes boys just have to go out and play with their toys 😉
Mad respect on your clutch work and launch 🚀
Thanks a lot!
Pick up my Valkyrie in 4 days, same cobra pipes so in the mean time I’ll just keep watching this to get my fix of that flat 6 sound.
Congratulations on the new bike! You'll love it! If the pipes come with the baffles installed, leave them in and see how you like it. Good for city riding and when you open her up, she sounds amazing over 4000rpm. Then take the baffles out and hear the difference ;-)
@@vancityvalkyrie yeah still has the baffles in so will see which I prefer, if in doubt baffles out though isn’t it?
@@Blipthethrottle726r 😂 I think that’s the saying, hehe
The Valkyrie really does make the Harley sound like a lawnmower in comparison
This and the Crossplane R1 are the best soundign bikes out there bar none
Thanks, bro! Since you commented I was watching videos about the Crossplane R1, learnt a lot 👍🏻 I would put the Valkyrie on 1st place. I’m opinionated though 😂
A honda vfr sounds about as good in my opinion to the r1. I own a vfr so i may be biased too.
Sounds fucking mean!!!!!!! I don't curse on here often but this sound is intoxicating
Owh wow i heard a lot of them but this one is realy the best until now
That's what I like to hear, very much appreciated! Cheers
Anyone know where to buy these exhausts in U.K.??🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

How does stock with baffles removed sound? Is that possible?
@@happytrails5342 I don't know... while I have run different aftermarket exhaust setups, I have never messed with the stock pipes.

To each his/her own, but IMHO, the Valkyrie is all about "quiet power".
Cobra exhaust.... How about CFR? More good or....
Pretty sure they don't make an exhaust system for the Valkyrie.
@@vancityvalkyrie Yeahh unfortunally..... But your Honda very good 😊👍🙏 keep on rock in bro...GbU 🙏🙏
Music to my ears.
Yanks love making a show of themselves. A mixture of arrogance and insecurity. Nothing beats a stock exhaust for understated class.
And yet here you are watching this arrogant insecure spectacle as well. How many views does your video of understated class have?
I wonder what it's like riding it for consecutive hours on end after the novelty of the sound wears off?

Love that cobra.
Crazy good tune.
10 seconds in, and i realised that you're a car tire person.
Absolutely loving it!!!
@@vancityvalkyrie to each his own, love the pipes. ride safe
What does that mean
@@Erick-tg4vn he replaced his rear motorcycle tire for a cheap car tire for mileage
@@Erick-tg4vn Darkside!!!
I guess when the government forces all rides to be electric you'll have to install a sound system that plays the same noise??
Not "noise"... "Symphony" ;-)
That is super badass the best love it
So are the six carbs a pain in the ass? I’m just wondering I’ve been looking at the Valkyries

😂👌🏻🤝
Muy buen sonido!!!!
Gracias! ;-)
Did you have to retune after installing this exhaust ?
All stock.
The way you are shifting gears is insane!
Thanks a lot! 🤝
Thank you for this!
Fucken love it!
how is the back tyre? does it work ok? what size and pressure?
I absolutely love it and can't imagine going back to a motorcycle tire ever again. Riding on a BFGoodrich g-Force Comp2 AS Plus, 205 55 R16, 38psi.
Waw !
I won't one
Great bikes.
YES!!!
hell of a show
Love the Hog!!
Hi is this 6 into 6 cobra?
It is. Cobra 6into6 without baffles. I hope you like it!?!
@@vancityvalkyrie it sounds boss, I hastock pipes, everyone saying to keep em but honestly I want this sound 😂😂💪💪

Hey, did you do a re-jet when you installed the 6 into 6 exhaust, or leave the jetting stock?
