Hi, my name is Valkyrie and I ride a 2017 Yamaha R1! I post on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Youtube, Snapchat, and X, but Instagram is my main platform. I released my first batch of merch in early 2024, but decided to shut down my site until I was able to produce designs I truly loved (even though the O.G. designs were still great, I knew it could be better). I hope you all enjoy these designs. I'm not a very creative person, but I'm truly proud of what I have created and spent tons of hours and late nights on. I'm always open to feedback, advice, questions, or even certain requests for color ways/designs. If you'd like to know a little about me or see some answers to FAQ I receive, scroll down a little more! Thank you for your time, I appreciate you all, and be safe out there. You are all loved. <3

I started riding in mid/late 2023 on my first bike, a 2012 Yamaha R6. With buying my bike, I made my page simply to have a place to post silly jokes, funny videos, and memories, but the friendships I made, locally, nationally, and internationally are the best part of it all for me. I currently work two jobs (EMT and Cardiovascular Technician) and I am working towards joining the fire department to become a firefighter paramedic. I post fun facts on every single caption on my Instagram posts, which is kind of something I have become known for with all the random facts I have added over the last few years. I've become known as a milk addict, I've been questioned about the way I eat French fries, and I can be found in lots of random comment sections on Instagram as I feel the need to comment on 90% of the videos I come across on my feed. Along with silly videos, I also post cinematic reels/photos and a gym post every now and then, as I love the gym! My life consists of work, gym, riding, creating content, traveling, spending time with family and friends, and cuddling my 3 doggies.

• For those who wonder about my height to be able to ride and reach on my previous R6 and current R1, I am 5'6.
• My R6 was not lowered at all, but my R1 is lowered 1 1/4" on the rear. I still tiptoe, but since I initially started on a bike where I was required to tiptoe, I grew used to it and now it feels weird when I'm actually able to flatfoot a bike!

• As stated above, I did start on a 600 cc bike, my Yamaha R6. Although I loved my R6, I do think that starting on a 400 or 500 is a great idea still.
• I also personally recommend buying a used bike to start, as you are bound to drop the bike while learning and making silly mistakes. It hurts less to drop a used bike rather than a brand new bike off the showroom floor. Along with buying a 300-500 cc, they are easier to practice skills on and maneuver around. Also, parts for 300s, 400s, and 500s are cheaper than that of parts for 600s-1,000s.
• With buying a used bike though, watch a YouTube video of what to look for and what questions to ask the seller, that way you don't end up with a messed up bike.
• If you do end up with a messed up bike, that's okay too! In that case, you'll be able to work on your bike and truly get to know all the ins and outs, and it makes it even more yours.
• Do your research. Have self control. Practice your skills in a safe environment (empty parking lot, track, etc). Take care of your bike and it will take care of you (KEEP UP W MAINTENANCE!). Do NOT buy a bike for ill intentions or with poor mentality. Understand the possible consequences that could come with riding. Always tell those you love that you love them and ride safe for them. You're all loved, please ride safely.

• Although a lot of my content doesn't necessarily show gear in every video, I am now at a point where I wear my gear for 95%, if not all, of my rides.
• For leathers, I have Dainese Delta 4s pants and I use them almost every ride with my Dainese Torque 3 boots.
• For other gear options, I primarily use RavenMoto products. I have used RavenMoto since 2023 and shortly after, I became an affiliate with them.
• I highly recommend RavenMoto because it is gear that doesn't even look/feel like gear, keeping you safe, comfy, and stylish on your rides. I have all sorts of their products such as hoodies, joggers, gloves, a backpack, neck gaiters, and even basic tees to wear around!
• My discount code with RavenMoto is Valkyrie10 if you'd like to check them out and save some money!
• For helmets, please do not cheap out. You don't need a $1,000+ AGV Pista, but investing money into gear, especially a good quality helmet could save your life. Brands that I personally trust are AGV (K1, K5(discontinued), K6), SHOEI, SHARK, and ALPINESTAR.
• I highly recommend investing in gear first and foremost, as it could save your life in the event of an accident. I'd rather invest $1-2K in gear rather than $100K+ in medical gear or the possibility of not making it home.

• If you are planning to make content, I highly recommend buying gear before buying content equipment such as cameras, mounts, speakers, etc. Cameras are great to have for protection and proof if you are involved in an accident, but at the end of the day, I would not recommend buying a motorcycle if you are only buying it for social media.
• Gaining a following does NOT make you better than anyone else. Stay true to yourself and please don't let high or low numbers get to your head.
• Consistency is key. Posting daily/every other day is key to building your algorithm and it is bound to pop off at some point. If you truly want it, chase it.
• I mainly shoot with photographers/videographers such as : @ Jpeg.R2 , @ Black_Reaper_Visuals , @ Connor.ARW , and @ Hoodratz.Media . I have mainly shot with these four because I genuinely love their work and style, and because I don't see them strictly as photographers/videographers, but as my friends as well, which always makes for fun shoots that I genuinely enjoy going to.
• I have also shot with others such as @ _Tecton_ , @ SweatyGeee, @ Cosmos.Captures , @ IsJustMedia , @ K00BS , @ RavenMoto , @ Wolfpak , & more. I am extremely thankful and grateful for every single one of these amazing people who took their time to hangout and do a shoot with me.
• If you have a chance to book a shoot with any of the listed people, do NOT miss out! :)
• NEVER rush your photographer/videographer unless there is a necessary timeframe in which you should make sure to discuss that with your photo/videographer beforehand. There's a difference between nicely asking them about an ETA versus being rude to them. Don't be that person!
• Be your true self. Do not change your personality or create a false narrative of yourself for the camera.
• If riding in group rides/rollers, PLEASE ride your own ride and do not try a new skill or try flying past other riders without their knowledge of it. You will only end up hurting yourself, hurting others, or simply having nobody like you.
• At the end of the day, I post what I want on my page simply because I want to and it makes me happy. If a video pops off, cool. If not, oh well. I know I enjoyed making the video and it was a fun, happy, cool, and/or silly memory. That's all that matters.

• I work with a good amount of brands. I only choose to work with brands I trust. I will not work with a brand if I do not trust their product(s) for myself or my loved ones, therefore I have been picky about who I choose to work with.
• If you are to use my code(s) with any of my affiliated companies and you have any types of issues, please let me know and I will reach out to them personally to assist in resolving the problem!
• Companies I work with include : RavenMoto, Cargo Systems, ASV Inventions, Quadfilm US, Insta360, WolfPak, Official Ghost Racing, Traumoto, MPM Motorcycle Mats, Corrupt, Quadlock, ChinMounts, Amotopart Fairings, Aurola, Psycho Pharma.
