Anyone see the photo of the Tourer in the December issue of Motorcycle Cruiser Magazine? Black Tourer with custom red flames and rider had a helmet to match. Photo was Steve? riding the Dragon. It was about two pages in from the back.

I'll guess this is the one... sort of Steve Glassinger Nixa, MO ‘00 Honda Valkyrie Tourer Steve Glasinger’s favorite color is chrome, but his scoot sports quite a few add-ons that aren’t shiny, including an extra gas tank, custom paint and a cushy Mustang seat. In Steve’s opinion as a Life Member of the AMA, Honda has not built a better bike than the Tourer, so it’s not only his touring bike, but his everyday ride as well. The big Honda has been down Highway 129—the Tail of the Dragon—enough times that Glasinger fondly calls it the Dragon Slayer.

 If you are riding and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast. |

Exactly.....Bike looks like a Triumph to me. Whatever it is, it ain't a Valk. |

I clicked on the picture on the page and it has a header saying that it is a 2006 Rocket 3. Where was the editor on that one.

Editor screwed up on that photo, in the magazine it is a black Tourer with red flames not a black/red Triumph and the photo shows the rider riding, in a corner, not a parked bike.

Maybe just maybe i'm missing something here.  I am not the smartest person on this here globe of ours but seems to me if you are gonna write about anything shouldn't the writer know a LITTLE something about that which he writes>>  Unless of course he be a politician.  Just wondering out loud i guess.  RIDE SAFE. |
