2001 Honda GL1500CD Valkyrie Deluxe

The 2000 Honda GL1500CD Valkyrie Deluxe is a base Valkyrie in a more luxurious trim, with the hollow-cast highly polished wheels being one of the the most impetuous additions to this already smoking hot cruiser.

This model year came in Pearl Dark Blue/Pearl White stripe and Black/Metallic Silver stripe color schemes, both matching the carefully designed chrome accents. With a revised camshaft timing and open-flow exhausts, the 2000 Valkyrie Deluxe is not only turning heads, but also has nerve to match its glorious looks. Audio, chrome and studded leathers options available.
