Honda's new idea for an urban trike (although they don't call it that, but it does have three wheels).

Weird...but kinda cool in a futuristic way...  ???

I'm still trying to figure out how you're supposed to get in the thing! Can you imagine navigating NYC in that while trying to dodge those somewhat-guided missles they call taxis?  ;D

Dave !  How've you and Cheryl been doing?  Haven't seen you two since... either IZ3 or 4 (Zanesville or Paducah)... don't remember which one.  You still makin' Valkyrie bling, or just for the PT Cruiser?  

Interesting little commuter concept thing.

Ratdog! Good to hear from you! We're doing fine. Killed the business at end of 2007. Nobody wanted what we had anymore! And it was getting too expensive to produce small quantities.

I can't remember the last Inzane we were at..it was Paducah though I'm sure. We still make the CBR ride every year over in Indianer though. Since we're still workin' our available traveling time is limited.

Yup... I do believe it was Paducah... vendor hall, about center of the room... and the trike was fairly new to ya (as I recall).  I unnerstan'... and can't say that I blame ya for droppin' the Valk bling parts.  My step brother has a yeller Rte. 66 PT Cruiser... make any stuff for that one?  I might be able to plant a seed of lust in his head.

Nothing left for the PT either...sorry! We still have our '01 PT...I think it's a keeper too!

I was at the local dealer (where we bought our '97 Valk) yesterday and was asking the same salesman about a used (or maybe new) sportbike, and he said "you're not trading the Valk are you?" I said..."NO WAY! ARE YOU CRAZY?"  He just grinned....  ;D

LOL  Oh well... it was a thought.  Yeah... I'd agree, the Valks are definately keepers.
