Default New Honda models

Wow, if you haven't seen them, take a look at some of the Honda motorcycles at www.hondamotorcycles.com

The VTX1800 for '03 and Valkyrie Rune for 2004 are pretty crazy looking. Have to take these puppies for a spin and give you all the low down. Maybe Harley will wake up and smell the petro....cause I think Honda is giving them a run for the money.

Default VTX 1800

Mongo, my brother-in-law has a 02' VTX 1800. I've ridden it, and it pulls like a train, you better be hanging on tight when you roll on the throttle hard. It has good torque thru all the gears. And like all Honda's she runs smooth, and has been very reliable for him so far.....nice bike.

Saw some pics of the Rune in some mag. Looked cool. Pretty pricey though...

Very true about the sticker price on those. Demand is going up....and so are the prices. Honda is starting to draw people away from the big moto cruiser makers and I think they believe that they'll be able to charge the high price too. Guess only time will tell. These are nice bikes though so who knows.
