I can't find a Valk discussion board on the web. I think some of you own a Valk, so I thought I'd ask here.
I know nothing about boxer engines. I'm looking at 2 Valks at the local dealer right now. One has 45K miles, the other has 65K miles. *Assuming* an owner does his scheduled maintenance, what kind of lifespan can you expect from the engine. With 6 carbs, is it a nightmare to keep running smooth? What does it cost for a dealer to sync up all those carbs? Are there any know issues with these bikes that I should be looking for? Are parts easy to get? It wasn't a big seller, and has been out of production a long time now. This is for 2 wheels, wasn't intending to trike it.
Thanks guys.
