Glad it was their money and not mine. Really strange with the 3 pipes there and no room for forwards. Not something for long range. Kinda weird.

Honda Rune. Hot rod honda. Valkyrie(spelling?) as a hot rod. Really fast. Really expensive. Really funny looking. Single saddle. Dealers sell every one they get.

Not even close to true. Right now there's a brand new 04 Rune in stock at a dealer just outside of Atlanta. They guy can't give the thing away.

I can't remeber the dealer's name, the Cycle Trader is at the office. They still have new 05s and 06s in stock.

One of the guys I ride with owns one. They are an great machine no doubt about it. The power they have and the smoothness of the ride is awesome. Plus any cruiser that blows by me like I'm standing still when I'm doing 115 is a great machine. Now the looks aren't what I loke but its still a nice bike.

Yep, a Honda Ruined; aka: V-rod fodder. They find out real quick that their lead chunk is no match for a Harley.

A friend of mine has one (with decent looking pipes!). It is a great looking bike (gets TONS of positive attention), sounds great and runs GREAT.

I'd have one in a heartbeat.
