The 45mm inverted front fork provides excellent handling and stability, while the dual rear shocks with five-position spring-preload adjustability allow for a tailored ride experience. With a fuel capacity of 20.06 liters (5.30 gallons), you can embark on long journeys without the frequent need for refueling. The sleek profile, coupled with a seat height of 734 mm (28.9 inches), ensures that riders of various heights can enjoy a confident and comfortable riding position. Available in a classic black finish, the Valkyrie exudes an air of timeless sophistication that never goes out of style. **
