What is Digi Sync service?

 Digi Sync service is installing your carbs on my Valkyrie test engine, and using the Digi Sync tool to balance your carbs.

• The six carburetors must be balanced, or the engine loses horsepower and fuel economy.

• Digi Sync is an electronic 6 channel digital peaking manometer.

• With it, I can see all 6 vacuum signals at once and balance your carbs perfectly.

• Digi Sync is absolutely the best tool for balancing your carbs. 

COLORTUNE uses a spark plug with a window into the combustion chamber. 

• With the carbs mounted on the test engine, I monitor the color of the combustion with the    Colortune plug and adjust the carb pilot screw to get an optimal combustion mixture.

• If the combustion is too lean it becomes light blue, and too rich becomes yellow. 

• Since we have six cylinders, each with a dedicated carb, I repeat the test for each cylinder.  

Exchange Option is for a carb set that I have on hand, already rebuilt and ready to ship.

If something is broken in your carbs,  I will let you know.

If there is a need for extra money to cover unexpected costs (such as a failed air cutoff valve), we will deal with that separately.

It is rare, but if it happens. There is no way to know until I get them apart and test them.

Each grill is custom hand made in the US, Southport, NC.

It is constructed from architectural 6063 aluminum ½ inch bar stock and ¼ aluminum rods, and polished to a high shine.

6063 aluminum is more corrosion resistant. 6063 is primarily used for exterior railings, decorative trim, and door frames. It works out well for our radiator grill.

The grill is designed to mount on top of the stock radiator screen using the same mounting holes. 

No modifications to your bike are required. 

Stainless steel cap screws and washers for mounting are included.

Instructions also included.

The history of the grill.

The Blue and gold bike pictured with the grill is a 98 tourer that started out black. It was in rough shape when I bought it. Restoring it has been a labor of love. 

I have had 2 Valkyries, and my sons, and sons in law all ride them. I think Valkyries are one of the most iconic bikes ever built. 

Rivco used to make a 9 bar grill, but I couldn’t find one when I wanted it so I built the first grill for this bike, then family and friends had interest, so I decided to build some for other Valkyrie owners.

I am trying to keep them reasonably priced and still get some return for the large amount of effort that goes into one of these. 

I hope you enjoy having it on your bike. Think of me the next time someone rolls down their window at a stop light and says “Wow, what kind of bike is that?” 

Will my 7 Bar radiator grill tarnish?

The 6063 aluminum is resistant to tarnishing, and the polish also has a coating in it to preserve the shine.

When the grill leaves here it is shined to a high gloss. If you incurred any scuffs or scratches during installation, any good metal polish will shine it back up. 

Use a microfiber rag, NOT paper towels. Paper is abrasive and will dull the finish. 

When riding, bugs etc. will hit it. If the five-foot rule isn’t working for you, (standing back 5 feet and viewing it), polish it as above. ;-)

Enjoy how good your bike looks.

Yes.

The Custom 7 bar Valkyrie radiator grill fits all Valkyrie 1500 models for years 1997 to 2003.
